In the 1996 TV Special, Elmo Saves Christmas. Upon hear that Elmo (a 4 year old) wished for Christmas everyday, he was originally going to say “that little red bastard from Sesame Street†but since this is a preschool show the line was changed to red monster. This is a your problem not my problem.
No seriously one of the elves said that he did this before what an idiot. Man Sesame Street has fallen from grace
