Videos: ‘Sesame Street’ Characters Teach ‘Game Of Thrones’ and ‘Westworld’ Enemies Lesson In Respect
  |  @   |  

A show like Sesame Street doesn’t exactly go together with shows like Game of Thrones and Westworld. You’re not going to find many adults watching Sesame Street without some tiny humans nearby, and you’d feel bad for any kid who accidentally wanders into an episode of Thrones or Westworld.

But with all three of the shows currently housed at HBO, anything is possible. Sesame Street is doing a campaign called “Respect Brings Us Together” as part of its 50th anniversary celebration. And who better to teach a lesson in respect to in a pair of recently released crossover videos than Game of Thrones siblings Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey) and Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage), and Dolores Abernathy (Evan Rachel Wood) and Bernard Lowe (Jeffrey Wright) from Westworld?
