Sesame Street: All-Star Alphabet is a 2005 direct-to-video special. All-Star Alphabet is an anthology of over two dozen scenes taken from episodes of the children's television series Sesame Street and tied together by new scenes featuring Nicole Sullivan and Stephen Colbert as the letters "A" and "Z" respectively. The special also stars Sheryl Crow, The Dixie Chicks, Melissa Etheridge, Larry King, and Norah Jones.
Plot
In addition to the scenes featuring Nicole Sullivan and Stephen Colbert as "A" and "Z," All-Star Alphabet is made up of twenty-six segments (one for each letter of the alphabet), plus two for the entire alphabet.
