Hummm...

I love the idea, and I'm just happy Ernie and Bert are coming back into the spotlight.

I still don't quite know what to think of this.

“I wish for some soup.” Classic Mr Johnson.

 

[AndyWan Kenobi]

And Elmo wishes it could be Picklemas EVERY DAY!

I'm trying to understand the context of the brief Brady Bunch reference.

 

[The Count]

This being an SST special, you know there has to be a Pickle Fairy involved somehow.

On the other hand, this sounds like the premise for a Don Music sketch.
When you wish upon a pickle, makes no difference who you... Who you... Er, tickle?

Please don't comb Elmo's hair down; I know Kevin started that, but still.

I'm trying to understand the context of the brief Brady Bunch reference.

And the infomercial ending.

Oh, it does! But this whole special seems bizarre, like they randomly generated a plot on some story making bot, or Mad Libs or something.

EDIT: Also, this will mark the first time we see Peter Linz's Ernie on the show!

Ya know I wouldn't really worry too much about the plot of this. I think this is a quick little special to get the characters out there and have some fun. It's not just an Elmo and Abby show, and we get to have characters like Oscar, The Count, Ernie and Bert have some screen time. It will also help the newer performers get a feel for their new roles.
