Videos: Grover And Sesame Street Crew Take Over On Good Morning America
This morning, Sesame Street favorites Grover, Elmo, Cookie Monster, Oscar the Grouch and Rosita crashed Good Morning America and worked on their morning talk show skills. When Grover took over for George Stephanopoulos as the news desk, he told Robin Roberts, "I did not know George's suit would fit me." The crew appeared to have a big laugh over that.
Grover Gets No Respect
One West Coast baby blog has had it up to here with the lack of respect Grover is getting on Sesame Street, asking "has anybody gotten screwed over" more than the lovable blue guy? The one time Big Muppet on Campus has been overshadowed by that fame whore Elmo. They claim the red muppet, who has less of a pot belly and a dumbed down version of Grover's schtick, has become what Al Roker is to Willard Scott. It's also noted that the other Sesame Street elders, like Big Bird, get more respect, with "classy elder statesman" roles. What's next, will Super Grover be taken out of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade?
