When the 47th season of “Sesame Street” debuts on HBO in January, it will come with a retooled version of “Elmo’s World,” the long-running segment that has appeared in the last few minutes of the kids-TV mainstay. In 25 five-minute installments of “Elmo’s World” slated to run, viewers will encounter Smartie, an animated cell phone and learning tool that will assist Elmo as he uses his imagination to delve into the show’s main topic. The new segment will also include live action films and interactive thinking games such as matching, counting and sorting. And while Mr. Noodle (played by Bill Irwin) will return, he will bring with him two brothers played by Daveed Diggs and Daniel Koren and three pet dogs: Schmoodle, Floodle, and Frank.
