Apple is partnering up with Sesame Workshop to create a range of programming for children, reports Variety. The partnership was established by Zack Van Amburg and Jamie Erlicht, who have been heading up Apple's video efforts.
Sesame Workshop is a non-profit organization that develops educational children's programs such as "Sesame Street," a popular, well-known, long-running program for kids.
According to the terms of the deal, Sesame Workshop will develop live-action and animated series, along with an Apple-exclusive puppet series. Content created for Apple will be original and will not include "Sesame Street," which airs on PBS and HBO.
Apple is, however, rumored to be pursuing a deal with Cartoon Saloon, which has previously produced animated films aimed at both children and adults, including "The Secret of Kells," "The Song of the Sea," and "The Breadwinner."

I hope they prove me wrong.
It may just be that you're not the target market. Kids programming, if done right, is a huge draw. I'm guessing all of their programming will be on a subscription basis, like Netflix. If they do provide compelling kids programming, that will pull in a LOT of families which will lead to a trickle down effect for the rest of the programming. It's a smart move.
