I just watched the new DVD Sesame Sings Karaoke, and there was a scene where Telly is showing Baby Bear the audiance, and sitting with Susan and Gordon is some kid Telly calls "Little Lenny". Whats his deal, I dont catch Sesame often cause its on only at 7am in my area. Thanks :zany:

There's no such character as "Little Lenny". It was an ad-lib Marty threw in during a take, as the camera panned over the extra's face. It cracked everyone up so much that they left it in the show. And everybody called the extra Little Lenny for the rest of the day.

Haha! Now *that's* funny. I can so picture Marty/Telly doing that. Reminds me of a lot of the humor Telly gets in Peter and the Wolf.

"So, where are the drums, eh?"
