The hyperactive orange one is Narf, the yellowish-green one is Phoebe, the purple one who from certain angles looks like a muppet dog is Googel, and the turquoise one with the hidden eyes and the habit of speaking gibberish is Mel. Incidentally, although the Monster Clubhouse segment didn't...

My guess is that they'll continue to rerun all the old Elmo's World episodes and try to get Bill Irwin (the original Mr. Noodle) if they need to tape new ones.

That's just an unsubstantiated rumor.

Actually, It's Mel who speaks monster, with Phoebe translating it for the rest of us.

So when there are kids present on the set when Big Bird and Oscar are together, do they just not hear Oscar's voice or does Mr. Spinney dub over Mr. Vogel's (or whoever) voice?

I'm not sure about your other questions, but I would count "Alistair Cookie" as an appearance by Cookie Monster. This role for the character is, of course, a reference to Alistair Cooke, host of "Masterpiece Theatre" from 1971 to 1993 (according to IMDb. So, all this info should be put on the...

As soon as I read the first post in this topic, I knew I was right at home here. You see, I am Keith, and people who don't know me call me "Kevin" all the time.:p What really annoys me is this: I add my first initial and numerical suffix when I sign my middle and last names, but people often...

I remember reading that Oz does perform in the letter of the day segments. Rudman, I believe, performs Cookie on the street and in segments where he appears with Grover. If I'm wrong, maybe some insider will correct me.

I personally try to avoid using even the euphemized d-word (also used for fixing socks) that Big Bird says in Journey to Ernie, but I don't mind hearing others say it.

Another common theory is that Fozzie was named for Franz "Faz" Fazakas.

or perhaps I have seen her and don't know who she is? Still, please describe or post a link.

Could anyone tell me what Suzie Kabloozie looks like or give the web address of a picture? I keep hearing about this character, but I only started back watching the show recently, after she seems to have disappeared.

Hewo Guy! No, seriously, I've always enjoyed watching Grover. The character I most identify with, however, has got to be Bert (though on occasion I do have a little bit of Ernie in me, and sometimes even some of Telly). Among the newer (anything from Kevin Clash's Elmo on) characters, my...

Pino, don't let Spanish-speakers see your version of the names, and hope English speakers don't try to pronounce it ("Bert in Ernie"), or people will start thinking Ernie's a cannibal.:p

Does anyone know whether Ernie and Bert are ever given last names?

Fred Rogers was the gentle host of another public television children's show, Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood. When Sesame Street was being created, the creators cited his show as one of the few examples of good children's television at that time. Beyond the crossovers already mentioned, there wasn't...

If Jim Henson were still alive, we wouldn't be sitting around discussing what would happen if Jim Henson were still alive.:p

Was this intended as part of the "Tear-jerking" thread?

I think fifty was an approximate age, meant more as a part of his personality description. I don't know that the others even have ages. Of course, if I'm wrong, I'm sure someone on this board will know.:cool:

I think the main reason the new characters annoy adults like us is that they aren't the ones we grew up with so we aren't used to them. (I was introduced to Elmo in the later days of my Sesame Street viewing as a kid, when he was just starting his rise to power.) Personally I think that Rosita...
