Obviously they didn't see my video! I got to meet Grover last month, and was as excited as if I had met George Clooney. http://selfishmom.com/2008/07/24/my-meeting-with-a-couple-of-muppets/

Elmo just wishes he was the monster at the end of that book.

Snuffleupagus and Oscar the Grouch are the best Sesame Street characters. All the others, except Mr. Hooper, suck in comparison.

Grover's a naif, but Elmo's the poseur.

Elmo is the most annoying of the Sesame Street monsters. He seems more forced than anything else, Grover on the other hand seems like a real person, or would it be monster?

I love Grover, except I never want him to be my waiter ever.

They're just asking the wrong people. My two-year-old loves Grover and calls his Grover doll "Super Grover" all the time even though he's just a plain old Grover. Personally, I like Cookie Monster.

Grover with his coconut head, noodle arms, and hopeless optimism and enthusiasm has always been my favorite. Snuffleupagus comes second. Telly comes dead last, 'cause he's a neurotic freak.
