Elmo is a character on
Sesame Street. Elmo talks in the third person and has a
high-pitched voice.
Grover, his best friend, is cuter.
Elmo is not as
annoying as
Zoe but he's more common. Especially now that they have
Elmo's World.
Muppeteer: Kevin Clash
Liz Lot: Before Zoe existed (the good ol' days) Grover was Elmo's best friend. :-P
In Germany, Elmo is called Elma and is female.
