I also love "The Rainbow Connection"!!

I also like Oscar the Grouch(much like me!!)
Grover
Big Bird
Kermy
Miss Piggy(mostly because she doesn't take any crap from anybody!!):D
Swedish Chef
Beeker
Count
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who doesn't like Elmo!!
MickeyMac 08-10-2009, 08:13 PM I havent seen this show in about 25 years so I have a couple of questions. Is Elmo a recent character because for the life of me I dont remember him when I was watching.
Also I hear they changed the Cookie Monster into the Apple monster or something. I can understand about being health consious (or however you spell it), but the Apple Monster !?!?!?!??!?!?!?! WTF :confused:

I heard a little something about this, and I think that's what it is. With the growing epidemic of childhood obesity, I guess they figured the name Cookie Monster was a bad influence on kids.
Give me a freakin' break!!:eek:
Like Doodyville stated in a thread, too much hypersenitivity in this world today.
phoebe7165 08-10-2009, 08:24 PM Oh, and I don't really know when exactly Elmo came about, I think in the past 10 years. I remember a few years back "Tickle Me Elmo" was the toy to get one Christmas season.
All I know is that he's annoying!!

He sure is.
gidgetgrape 08-10-2009, 08:50 PM I know Elmo was in "Follow That Bird" in 1985. He doesn't have a speaking part, but he is one of the background monsters.

My favorite is Grover.
Schmoopie 08-11-2009, 03:16 AM I havent seen this show in about 25 years so I have a couple of questions. Is Elmo a recent character because for the life of me I dont remember him when I was watching.
I don't remember exactly when he debuted but it was way after I stopped watching! I haven't seen "Follow That Bird" yet, but maybe he started out as an 'extra' and ended up being front and center. Elmo's cute, but that Elmo's World segment they have is WAY too long. I'm serious, it was over 10 minutes long! I timed it! How boring to sit and watch that for half the show! Even I was getting bored! I can understand a long segment with various characters "on" Sesame Street, but it's like "Elmo's World" is hogging the whole show!
Also I hear they changed the Cookie Monster into the Apple monster or something. I can understand about being health consious (or however you spell it), but the Apple Monster !?!?!?!??!?!?!?! WTF :confused:
OMG, are you serious? That's crazy! Besides I've seen Cookie Monster eat apples and such. I highly doubt that just because he craves cookies doesn't mean that every preschooler in America will now be overweight! :crazy: Can you say "Parental supervision"! I can understand them wanting to show him eating more than cookies, but I can think of a hundred different ways to do it, instead of changing a classic character's name.

I CAN'T STAND Elmo!!!! Sesame Street has turned into "The Elmo Show".
Oscar should throw Elmo in the trash and beat the stuffing outta him, putting him (and us) out of his (our) misery.

Least Favorite: Never was a big fan of Elmo or that Lew Zealand (the guy from the Muppet Show with the boomerang fish act, lol).
catlover79 08-11-2009, 11:34 PM Sam the Eagle on the Muppet Show could get on my nerves, but I think his character was supposed to be annoying. :lol:
Marvo301 08-11-2009, 11:42 PM I can't believe no one has mentioned Placido Flamingo yet! Am I the only one with any culture around here?
catlover79 08-11-2009, 11:45 PM I can't believe no one has mentioned Placido Flamingo yet! Am I the only one with any culture around here?
Hey, I already mentioned Alistair Cookie - THAT'S not culture?? :rofl:
Marvo301 08-11-2009, 11:51 PM Hey, I already mentioned Alistair Cookie - THAT'S not culture?? :rofl: 150992
You're right. Alistair Cookie certainly represents culture. Here is a picture of Sesame Street's only opera singer Placido Flamingo.
catlover79 08-12-2009, 12:14 AM Loved the end of Monsterpiece Theatre when Alistair Cookie would chow down on his pipe. :eek: :lol: Remember "Pretty Great Performances"? :lol:

Thanks, Monika!
There's another monster I like, but I have no idea what his name is. He's yellow and I think he has orange horns.

That would be The Count. Heck, he could count the floor tiles in his bathroom if he wanted to.
And for Muppets that aren't Sesame Street, here are my faves....
Kermit
Fozzie
Ms. Piggy
Statler and Waldorf
Gonzo
My least fave is...
That host from "Muppets Tonight" who has that Jamaican wig and accent.
TheGreatPretender 08-13-2009, 11:21 PM I know she was one of the first but Prairie Dawn annoys the **** out of me.
I guess you could say she is my least favorite. :lol:

He’s still at it in the deep tracks thread.
Dude, no one’s going to go out and buy a used CRT TV, a VCR, a cassette player or an 8-track player upon your recommendation. Your anti-digital crusade is ****ing dumb and I’m tired of being nice about it. Take that bull**** to a forum of like-minded people.
I’m sorry you can’t adapt to superior technology like everyone else has in the past 25 years, but that’s a you problem; stop making it ours.
Bonniegirl 07-05-2026, 03:18 PM Cookie Monster, Bert & Ernie, The Count .
I don't really have a least favorite, I like them all.
