Found a whole playlist of videos with “Elmo and Sesame Street”. Does Elmo have some kind of contract where he has to be credited separately when he makes appearances?
That article just list different licensees and different types of uses for a license that have occurred. I remember when Elmo was so popular that he outshined the rest of Street.

I mean, there was a toy back in the 90s that was aggressively over hyped. And as Children’s Television Workshop was privatized, turning children’s programming into a commodity was all that mattered. But Kermit went through the same cycle in the 70s/80s, then fell out of fashion.

Sesame Street licensing is crazy.
Certainly possible that there’s a fully separate provision for using Elmo specifically, requiring separate credits.

My generation was the emo Elmo parody.
