| - Bert and Ernie's Great Adventures is an animated series developed by Sesame Workshop in which clay-animated versions of Bert and Ernie use their imaginations to travel to strange places and into entertaining situations. The shorts are shown in the United States as inserts on Sesame Street, appearing irregularly from season 39 through season 43, and only occasionally since. Internationally, the shorts are shown as a stand-alone series in various overseas markets; the first season debuted in September 2008. The animation for the series was produced by Italy's Misseri Studio. Two seasons of 26 five-minute episodes each were produced. The characters' performers, Steve Whitmire and Eric Jacobson, provide the voices for the American Great Adventures segments. Additional voices are provided by Sesame puppeteers Stephanie D'Abruzzo, Joey Mazzarino, and Tyler Bunch. Each episode begins with Bert and Ernie climbing into their beds for a night's sleep. Suddenly, Bert's bed starts shaking and tapping, and Ernie hops aboard as the bed flies out of their apartment and into their next great adventure. Each adventure has Bert and Ernie in a new location and a new situation. Sometimes they're accompanied by Bert's trusted pigeon-friend Bernice, or Ernie's toy Rubber Duckie. Often they encounter new and old friends, and also adversaries, along the way. In many segments, Ernie calls "Taxi!", referring to a different character (such as a dog or a caveman) as opposed to the yellow vehicle. The segment's theme song was written by Sarah Durkee (lyrics), Michael Abbott and Joseph Franco. A compilation of 13 "Great Adventures" segments was released on DVD in 2010. A set of picture books and videos (in both English and German) has been published in Germany based on Great Adventures episodes. The books have been translated and reprinted in other European countries. The first American Great Adventures book, Dinosaur Rescue, was published in 2010.
