How about Ernie, Bert and Abby? Bert would give the necessary comedic tension. Or maybe just Bert and Abby. The only thing I can see Ernie and Abby doing is having Abby screw up a spell and doing something to Rubber Duckie, but they already did that with Mumford a decade ago. But then of course, the fleeting demographic rule is on their side. Plus, Abby would really feel bad about it.Why are some of you asking for an Ernie/Abby pairing? I can't think of anything funny they'd be able to do together unless they were somehow messing with Bert. From their personalities, I see almost nothing funny coming from Ernie and Abby in a sketch; there's almost nothing that could cause conflict between them.
I mean, they do a sketch not meant to be funny, but where's the fun in that?
Anyway, I agree with the Count. I'm glad someone else thinks the "look what's in the garden" segment is lame and lacking in variety. They need better stand alone segments for double digit, or just teen numbers. We need another stand alone 15 song.
