We still may not be able to tell you exactly how to get to Sesame
Street, but the neighborhood’s beloved denizens know their way to the EW
offices. Last year, Elmo and Cookie Monster dropped in to give us their
versions of some popular TV shows, but this time around Elmo was too
busy working on Elmo: The Musical—the show’s new singing-and-dancing
segment that will replace the popular Elmo’s World—to make another
visit. Luckily for us, Grover and Cookie Monster (a.k.a. the Blue
Brothers) had enough wiggle room in their schedules to stop by to sing a
few musical numbers of their own, parodying the likes of The Avengers,
The Hunger Games, Doctor Who, and even The Newsroom. So if you were one
of the many viewers who thought Aaron Sorkin’s biggest mistake was not
saddling his newsman protagonist with a crippling cookie addiction, then
this video is for you!

Will Grover be Emma Peel?

Wasnt' there an episode where they have a fight in a toy department and
fight off the enemy with toys?

I know they did it on "Get Smart", but I certainly remember it on The
Avengers.

No, that would be Elmo.
