WHAT!!? you put Grover under a character later introduced!? he was one of my favorite sesame street Muppet! heck! one of my all time favorite book, "the monster at the end of this book", has him as the main character! i call for a re-count!!!
Took the words right out of my mouth! I stopped the damn thing right after that. It's bad enough that they put Grover at such a low number, but to put another muppet that really has no place on the list in front of him? Ugh.
well...i don't think they should have put it higher on the list, but...at the same time i don't want to see it removed, just lowered since it was introduced later on.
The sad thing is of course Big Bird has gradually shown up less and less in recent years with Elmo and Abby getting entire segments of the show to themselves and the number of episodes per year cut down to 26. All shows change over the years but it still sad once you notice your faves have been pushed to the wayside even if you no longer watch the program.
These are MY top 10 favorite sesame street characters 10: Count Von Count 9: Big Bird 8: Elmo 7: Kermit 6: Grover 5: Cookie Monster 4: Bert and Ernie 3: Snuffy 2: Abby Cadabby 1: Oscar The Grouch
My top 10 favourite Sesame Street characters: 10. The Martians 9. Guy Smiley 8. Big Bird 7. Kermit the Frog 6. Bert 5. Ernie 4. Oscar the Grouch 3. Grover 2. Cookie Monster 1. Count von Count
Agreed, people are complaining that Abby Cadabby is on the list, meanwhile, my nitpick towards this list is that as a total die-hard of Sesame Street, not every Muppet has been included to this list.
I have been a Sesame Street fan for 28 years and I always will be a fan of this show and it's memorable characters, especially Elmo and Big Bird. They are my favorites.
@@blackstar044 Now, let's be sensible about this. Note, Abby did, practically supplant all other female Muppets on the show upon her introduction, whether for good or bad & Leslie's iconic high-pitched voice and recognizable giggle are adorable, no matter what character she plays (besides Abby, she was sprite Ginger on _Johnny & the Sprites_ and Edi the Zebra on _Jim Henson's Animal Jam_ [made in 2003 before the 2010 online video game]).
Gir Ed and Pearl Est/RFTWDKFTLF I like Abby, but I respect your opinion. I know she wasn’t as historical as Rosita or Zoe, but she gained more popularity since her debut in 2006. If you don’t like what’s on this list, make your own Top 10
Let’s just face it. All these characters are fucking amazing!!!!! 😁 Although, there was one moment in Elmo in Grouchland where Zoe made Elmo share his property, which in this case, is his blanket. But at least she made up for it at the end, eh? 😃
Because all Sesame Street characters are awesome, I do doubt it would be all that worth it to make a list of “Top 10 (or especially Top 5) Greatest Sesame Street Characters” since so many characters in the series are so fucking funny!!!! XD
My God some of these early muppet designs were nightmare fuel. Did you see that early Snuffy with the yellow eyes or TV Telly. Thanks guys, not like I needed restful sleep ever again. Cookie Monster was my favorite.
I thought grover should have been put higher. Elmo is the most influential character in my opinion there for he should be placed first. And don't know why you had Abby on the top ten list over Zoe. But this video was still pretty cool.
Dood! You guys forgot the Two Headed Monster! They taught me how to read more than any other character on sesame street. Oh... and the yip yip Martians were cool.
Thankyou for making me feel 4 years old. Lol i miss harry monster. Biff the construction guy was cool and stinkweed was ok. Barkley was annoying. I love the guy that grover used to piss off all the time. I used to feel for that guy and wondered if he went mental because of grover. But my absolute fave muppet on sesame street was the the aliens!! Just so funny!! I miss being kid and watching old school sesame street at my nans house, in the 80's. Lol. Thanks again for letting me relive the best part of my childhood. You have made me remember the funniest things on that show. Including kermit and cookie segments. Lol.
Zoe wasn't even an honorable mention? That's disappointing. She became one of the first big female characters in the show. In my eyes, she played a bigger role in the show than she's given credit for. She's always been my favorite because of her innocence, adorable voice, and sweet personality. It really is a shame that she's been so underrated these days. :/
The top 23 should have been... 1. Elmo 2. Kermit 3. Big Bird 4. Oscar 5. Bert and Ernie 6. Grover 7. Telly 8. Cookie Monster 9. The Two Headed Monster 10. Snuffy 11. The Count 12. The Amazing Mumford 13. Barkley 14. Harry Monster 15. Guy Smiley 16. Forgetful Jones 17. Grundgetta 18. Slimey 19. Abby 20. Rosita 21. Zoe 22. Baby Bear 23. Alice
timrob12 Lmao I cant believe ur replying after 3 years of originally posting this comment. Ok back to the conversation. Ye but it’s a kids show so forcing the idea of homosexuality to kids that young is a very James Charles move. Even the idea of showing what sexual relationships are. Children don’t give a rats about sexual relationships. I’m not saying I support the idea or not but I think it’s good that they are just two close friends that care for each other showing kids that 2 different personalities can always come together. (Ernie’s my fav character)
PBS Funding Addict thank you! I actually related to Telly because I worried a lot about things before they happened. I also love that he is a loyal friend.
Some of the most familiar and popular Muppets are full-bodied characters. Big Bird is the best known example, though his Sesame Street cohorts include Snuffy and his family, Bruno the Trashman, Sam the Robot and Barkley. The Muppet Show played host to Sweetums, Thog, Timmy Monster, The Mutations, Doglion, Behemoth, Fletcher Bird, and Sopwith the Camel. The Gorgs loomed large on Fraggle Rock, while Bear and his friend Ursa star in Bear in the Big Blue House. Later examples include Mopatop on Mopatop's Shop. Various overseas versions of Sesame Street have had their own larger than life stars, including Kippi Ben Kippod, Boombah, Nimnim, and Zeliboba. Feature films brought a new raft of full-bodied characters, including Miss Finch, Mommy Dodo, Daddy Dodo, Marie Dodo and Donnie Dodo from Follow That Bird, and The Ghost of Christmas Present and The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come from The Muppet Christmas Carol.
A lot of the muppet characters looked very different when they were originally introduced. - Oscar was originally orange in season 1, but since about season 2 or 3, Oscar has been green ever since. - Snuffy having big bulging eyes and no eyelids in earlier seasons, but has since gotten less bulkier eyes and eyelids. - Telly having whirling eyes and antenna originally. The antenna was removed, and whirling eyes replaced with normal eyes. - Cookie Monster having teeth in TV commercials that predated Sesame Street, and the teeth went away when Sesame Street debuted. - Big Bird originally didn't have a full head of feathers, but was given a full head of feathers around season 2 or 3. Grover, Elmo, Abby, Baby Bear, Bert, Ernie, Herry, Rosita, Zoe, Count, and Prairie Dawn were/are mostly unchanged, despite a couple of cosmetic changes made once in a blue moon, to where they didn't look too dated, as well as in order for them to stay relevant. Additional honorable mentions... I'd include retired characters Roxie Marie, Biff, and Forgetful Jones, as well as the likes of Humphery, Ingrid, Natasha, Murray, Ovajita, Zoe, Rosita, and Prairie Dawn.
COOKIE MONSTER NUMBER 3?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I did guess he'd be in the top 3 so I'll forgive you this time! (At least Elmo wasn't first...)
My one year old daughter has a crush on Telly. When he shows up on screen or we say Telly she arupts into blushes and smiles. Love it! Her first crush!
I got several from very old classics of Sesame Street. Forgetful Jones & Clementine, Grungetta Grouch, Rooselvelt Franklin, Betty Lou , Prairie Dawn, Aristotle, Bruno, The 2 headed Monster, Farley, Dena Monster , Herry Monster, Biff & Sully, The Anything Muppets, & The muppet likeness of Gilbert & Sullivan & Nelson Eddy & Janette Macdonald. And Harvey Kneeslapper.
SA had its own version of Sesame street called Takalani Sesame that I watched as a kid that aired each week in the 11 official SA languages, SA unique main Muppets characters you won't find anywhere else except here are Zikwe, Zuzu, Moshe and Kami.😂❤
I remember when Sesame Street first started in 1969 and so many of the Muppets have changed, either in appearance or they're not there anymore. There was no Elmo, Oscar was even more of a grouch, Harry Monster looked different and Cookie Monster was a bit creepier to me. There was Sam the robot, Little Bird and Big Bird had a smaller head and a goofier voice.
Zoe and Rosita weren't on the list and they were there long before Abby /; but oh well still a great nostalgic list! Especially with Elmo being #2 he's my favorite
More honorable mentions, Prairie Dawn, Betty Lou, Roosevelt Franklin, Mr. Johnson u know the customer who Grover messes up his order, Zoey, and Baby Bear

I am SOOO glad that Ernie and Bert are on the list. I want it sometimes because I enjoy the clever writing, puppet design,unforgettable characters. Plus they are reviving old characters like Gordon, and Stinky, but it's just not the same without Mr. Hooper
Telly is my favorite character because I was obsessed with him playing the tuba, admiring triangles and bouncing on his pogo stick. I even used to imitate Telly as a kid by pretending that a bunch of straws were a tuba and I liked the colors pink and purple because it reminded me of him. I even wanted to play the tuba just like him, but tubas hurt people’s cheeks. Telly never fails to make me laugh and no other character compares to him, in my opinion
La la la la, la la la la Elmo's world. Elmo loves his goldfish, his crayons too, that's Elmo's world! I grew up with Sesame Street, my brother grew up with Elmo's World. Me Noodle was just creepy as hell to me.
I would always ask my mom how to get to Sesame street cuz Sesame street never told us and i would be pissed that i couldnt go. like if this happened to you when you where a kid
There are several things wrong with this list: Number 1: Who the hell is Abby Cadabby? Number 2: Elmo DOES NOT deserve to be in second place! Number 3: Grover should be much higher than No. 8! Number 4: WHERE THE HELL WERE THE YIP-YIP ALIENS??!!!

I'm mean his eyes were hecka red
"Big Big helps us to come to terms with death, and learn the alphabet." A great combo.

***** Yeah, right. I just saw that. Thanks
Hes right its big bird i should know i am the new generation

The Telly Monster reminds me of conspiracy theorists: paranoid and obsessed with triangles
Amen.
776ygg1 the house and
YOU BROKE SESAME STREET!!! 😂
😄😄😄 Never thought of that, but i can see that. In real life he'd probably be in the running with Alex Jones.
Telly was ranked far too low. He’s my number one favorite character. Second is Zoe and third is Elmo.
I still remember when Big Bird sang at Jim Hensons funeral. Still gives me shivers.
Poor underrated Grover. Still a superhero, in my book.
Cookie Monster was always my favorite character.
Same!
He and Oscar are my favorite
Bert and Ernie are definitely my favorites. Also, Grover should have been higher on the list!!
Grover has been my fav since there was a monster at the end of my book XD
"Here fishy fishy fishy". Works every time.
Seems legit.
this list is brought to you by the letter W
And by the letter S for Sesame Street
I wish Rosita could have at least made the honorable mentions, she's my favorite!
Both Rosita and Zoe.
Rosita cute
WHAT!!? you put Grover under a character later introduced!? he was one of my favorite sesame street Muppet! heck! one of my all time favorite book, "the monster at the end of this book", has him as the main character! i call for a re-count!!!

Grover ranked far too low on this list...
So true
Yeah Grover should have been further up!!!
And Kermit should have gotten more than an honorable mention
If you lived as a child of the 70s and 80s Grover and count would have been higher. And Kermit the frog is more than just an honorable mention
I admit that Elmo deserved to be on the list, but when you rank him ahead of Grover you lose all Street cred.
I have been a Sesame Street fan for 28 years and I always will be a fan of this show and it's memorable characters, especially Elmo and Big Bird. They are my favorites.

Snuffy isn't as popular, I guess
So glad that Big Bird was #1. He deserved the top spot.
Tell me about it, homey.
Me too. He's my favorite Sesame Street muppet.
MattAKASchfiftyThree It was pretty obvious that Big Bird would be number 1.
I thought Elmo was going to be #1. Elmo is like the king of Sesame Street.
Grover team. 🏳️
Instead of Abby I reckon it sholdve been Rosita.
I can't believe Abby made the list and not Zoe! Zoe was my favorite when I was growing up.
I agree with both of you. Abby was still new to the show. I would have gone with Zoe and Rosita in the top 10.
Or zoe
Let’s just face it. All these characters are fucking amazing!!!!! 😁
Although, there was one moment in Elmo in Grouchland where Zoe made Elmo share his property, which in this case, is his blanket.

Not Rosita but Zoe
Oscar is my favorite!! My favorite t -shirt is the one with him that says "S" is for SCRAM!

2:40 that's one of my favorite scenes I saw with him in it
Absolutely not!!
No

Great list, it brought back many fond memories. Although personally, Cookie Monster was always my favorite.
All the way through i was thinking to myself
"I hope they show the 'yip yip huh huh' aliens"
This list is exactly as I would have done it. BB is the perfect #1.
Dammit childhood come back to me!!!!
Yes lord.
My God some of these early muppet designs were nightmare fuel. Did you see that early Snuffy with the yellow eyes or TV Telly. Thanks guys, not like I needed restful sleep ever again. Cookie Monster was my favorite.
God Grover in his original incarnation was scary, that nose, like Nosey Bump that horrible character on Jigsaw!
The original Muppet designs are nightmareish, but that’s part of why I miss the 20th Century! XD
grover should be higher
I thought grover should have been put higher. Elmo is the most influential character in my opinion there for he should be placed first. And don't know why you had Abby on the top ten list over Zoe. But this video was still pretty cool.

how is Kermit and honorable mention he should be way up there
Perhaps it's because he is number one on the other muppet list?
***** I don't know about today's Sesame Street, but he was definitely a main character back in the day.
Geowge McDingleberry yeah what he said.
donald lewis I though they said no muppets from the muppet show
"Unless they were regulars on Sesame Street." Kermit probably was a regular early on the series run before The Muppet Show.

Today's November 10th, 2019. It's officially the 50th anniversary of Sesame Street.
Bert and Ernie always my favorite and always will be forever):
I still have my soft toy of Bert from '89. He's been repaired two, or three times, & been all over the world with me.

@@williamlangan5902 well to be honest he's only seen for little skits and being bothered by Hairy, cookie monster, or grover.

SA had its own version of Sesame street called Takalani Sesame that I watched as a kid that aired each week in the 11 official SA languages, SA unique main Muppets characters you won't find anywhere else except here are Zikwe, Zuzu, Moshe and Kami.😂❤
Help!
Nostalgia overflow!!
I remember when Sesame Street first started in 1969 and so many of the Muppets have changed, either in appearance or they're not there anymore. There was no Elmo, Oscar was even more of a grouch, Harry Monster looked different and Cookie Monster was a bit creepier to me. There was Sam the robot, Little Bird and Big Bird had a smaller head and a goofier voice.
Personally speaking the Yip yip Martians are more entertaining than Elmo ever could be.
YES! Why weren't they on this list?
My favorite line from them was "Com-pu-tor com-pu-tor yip yip yip yip yip."
Zoe and Rosita weren't on the list and they were there long before Abby /; but oh well still a great nostalgic list! Especially with Elmo being #2 he's my favorite
What about Murray and his lamb?
Happy 50th anniversary,
Sesame Street! (1969-2019)🎊🎉🎂
Grover should be way higher on the list. He's Awesome!
Ironically, it often ISN'T a sunny day when Count von Count is around, since he has the power to make it stormy.
I knew Big Bird was going to be the #1 :)
More honorable mentions, Prairie Dawn, Betty Lou, Roosevelt Franklin, Mr. Johnson u know the customer who Grover messes up his order, Zoey, and Baby Bear

Elmo is Sesame Street's breakout character
big bird is scary man
I am SOOO glad that Ernie and Bert are on the list. I want it sometimes because I enjoy the clever writing, puppet design,unforgettable characters. Plus they are reviving old characters like Gordon, and Stinky, but it's just not the same without Mr. Hooper
Zoe should at least be an honorable mention
And Rosita
Telly is my favorite character because I was obsessed with him playing the tuba, admiring triangles and bouncing on his pogo stick. I even used to imitate Telly as a kid by pretending that a bunch of straws were a tuba and I liked the colors pink and purple because it reminded me of him. I even wanted to play the tuba just like him, but tubas hurt people’s cheeks. Telly never fails to make me laugh and no other character compares to him, in my opinion
Count should've been 1st.
Grover following 2nd
and Elmo in 3rd.
Only ones I cared for in the show lol
This was awesome, WatchMojo 😊
Don't forget Elmo has his own show, "Elmo's World"
La la la la, la la la la Elmo's world. Elmo loves his goldfish, his crayons too, that's Elmo's world! I grew up with Sesame Street, my brother grew up with Elmo's World. Me Noodle was just creepy as hell to me.
I would always ask my mom how to get to Sesame street cuz Sesame street never told us and i would be pissed that i couldnt go. like if this happened to you when you where a kid
I love Elmo when I was a little kid. And I still do.
I am 48. I will always love Elmo. ❤️❤️
Big Bird is a 40 year 6 year old bird. I guess the aging process is slower in bird years.
There are several things wrong with this list:
Number 1: Who the hell is Abby Cadabby?
Number 2: Elmo DOES NOT deserve to be in second place!
Number 3: Grover should be much higher than No. 8!
Number 4: WHERE THE HELL WERE THE YIP-YIP ALIENS??!!!
The Count should have been higher as well.
