All the Elmo Detractors are on one side, hissing and booing and throwing rocks and stuff, saying that Elmo is a one-note tickle-bot who takes the focus away from all the other Sesame characters. And I'm over on the other side (also known as: the side of truth and light), saying: Um, no. Not really.
DANNY HORN, "My Week with Elmo"
Sesame [Street] was all about adults having the answers and giving kids instructions. "Elmo’s World" is all about kids getting interested in a topic, asking questions, making observations and drawing conclusions. Say what you like about The Red Menace (and I have, I have), "Elmo’s World" gets the pedagogy right. From now on, if you got a problem with Elmo, then you got a problem with me. I got that monster’s back.
