Maybe a dumb and selfish question - but what does this mean for PBS shows like Sesame Street?

If the station can stay online at all, shows that they just re-broadcast will probably be fine. It’s local stuff that will get cut first. Local news, events, alerts, emergency information, etc.

PBS is a network of independently owned stations, so it will vary. Shows by well-funded entities like CTW and WGBH will be largely unaffected.
