Favorite Sesame Street Character?

[furling]

The Count, hands down. I always wondered though, he is supposed to be a vampire right? he has the fangs and all, so who exactly did he feed on? maybe there was a whole dark underside to sesame street we never saw where the Count hunted and fed on Sesame street goers.... i smell a really weird fan fic possibility.

here some more to go with it

it's the sesame street mafia

[Easter Lily]

I have to watch it for work! Well, I don't really have to, but we've got little muppet weeble things that we use to distract babies when we're testing their hearing, & it wouldn't do not to know who was who At our main centre, we've got Ernie & Big Bird (not keen on Big Bird, bit dim & sensible ), & at our outpost clinic (or the alpha site, as I prefer to think of it these days!! ) there's Cookie monster & Elmo. The kids love Elmo best, we have to use him sparingly or we'd never get anything done !
CM & Ernie are my faves though, & like many others, The Count....cos I love to count....One, one lovely episode of Stargate! Two! Two lovely episodes of Stargate! Three....ok, stopping now

"One episode of Stargate, two episodes of Stargate... There are two episodes of Stargate... Muhwahwahaaaaaa" *lightning and thunder strikes* "I am dee count becacoz I luf to count"

My almost 4 year old likes Elmo too... but he's tad too high pitched for my liking... well, we know what the focus demographic of that is...

Cookie Monster Rocks!
Now what starts with the letter C?
Cookie starts with C
Let's think of other things
That starts with C
Oh, who cares about the other things?

C is for cookie, that's good enough for me
C is for cookie, that's good enough for me
C is for cookie, that's good enough for me
Oh, cookie, cookie, cookie starts with C

C is for cookie, that's good enough for me
C is for cookie, that's good enough for me
C is for cookie, that's good enough for me
Oh, cookie, cookie, cookie starts with C

(spoken)
Hey you know what?
A round cookie with one bite out of it
Looks like a C
A round donut with one bite out of it
Also looks like a C
But it is not as good as a cookie
Oh and the moon sometimes looks like a C
But you can't eat that, so

C is for cookie, that's good enough for me, yeah!
C is for cookie, that's good enough for me
C is for cookie, that's good enough for me
Oh, cookie, cookie, cookie starts with C, yeah!
Cookie, cookie, cookie starts with C, oh boy!
Cookie, cookie, cookie starts with C!

(Cookie Monster eats the cookie)
Umm-umm-umm-umm-umm

The Stargate Version "S is for Stargate"

Now what starts with the letter S?
Stargate starts with S
Let's think of other things

Hey you know what?
A symbiote with with a twist in its tale
Looks like a S
A zat that is activated
Also looks like a S
But it is not as good as a Stargate
Oh and the staff weapon also starts with the letter S
But you can't travel with that, so

S is Stargate, that's good enough for me, yeah!
S is for Stargate, that's good enough for me

ElMo!

*hugz a fellow elmo fan* Let's start a elmo club *animates Elmo's voice*

Nuts? I know....

[BruceDickinson]

Any Dave Chappelle fans here? His take on Sesame Street is one of the funniest things I've ever seen! It's on his 2nd stand up special if you're interested. He also did a skit on his show in the second season that mocked Sesame Street that had me in tears...

But I'd say my favorites were always the Count, Ernie, the Cookie Monster, that guy with the REAL big nose (edit: it's Grover ) that had the book were he tried to stop you from getting to the end (was one of my favorite books when I was a tot ) and Oscar. I really hate Big Bird though, never did like em .

[ShadowMaat]

I loved Snuffy back when only Big Bird ever saw him. But I've heard recently that EVERYONE sees him now and that kinda spoils the fun, IMO.

Grover was brilliant. Who could NOT love Grover?

Oscar, of course, was a monster near and dear to my heart. He served as a bit of a role model to me.

Elmo wasn't around when I was growing up, but he's kinda cute, in a reddish, high-pitched sort of way. I saw him guest on a cooking show once and to this day I can't hear the word "sauté" without picturing Elmo hopping up and down saying "Sauté!!"

Kermit and his Muppetone News broadcasts were also among my favorites.

ROTFL I'm torn between admiration & concern; have your children suggested that you should cut down on your Sesame St?

I have just the one...
Obviously you haven't seen my work in the Sam/Thor ship thread or the Maj Sheppard thunk thread... I advocate both the sublime and the ridiculous...

Actually we haven't seen Sesame St for a couple of months now... must be suffering from withdrawals...

Better get you SS dose now Lily

[Blue Banrigh]

What was Oscar's little worm called? Slimy?

[Easter Lily]

It is indeed...

[Blue Banrigh]

It is indeed...

I loved him. I remember one skit where Oscar sent him up in a hot air balloon.

Ernie's song 'Don't want to live on the Moon' was sweet. *sheepish* I think I have that song somewhere.

[SilverRider]

It is indeed...

Just found this one here:
40 years ago (I was 16 then) we could watch the original Sesame Street in Germany on the third channel (there were only three then), it was the only chance to really listen to the English language and it was great.
My favourites were:
Cookie
Asker (Oscar)
The German version well I don't know I think it's not as good as the original.
