The immediate “COOKIE!” broke me 😂 2:30

[@onlyiforgive5083]

😂😂😂

[@LateBloomerMedia]

2:25 is the timestamp

[@congoliab]

Oh my God, I haven't had a shock laugh like that in a while

[@TheRedGameboy]

I'm surprised I didn't anticipate that.

[@King_kaiju101]

He said it with such confidence too 🤣🤣

[@kimychannel]

“Cookie” will never get old 😢😂❤

[@seankent9057]

He has for me. He’s always been a bad influence on me as a child when I copied his eating technique during snack time at school and got in trouble.

[@mickeysmyspiritanimal223]

Elmo’s little voice is so adorable! 🥰 ❤ He is too cute!

[@theodorerobert6579]

No its very irritating. It is third to Donald Trump's irritating voice and second to the muffled sound Sean Hanity makes while speaking because he is so far up Trump's ass.

[@nicolasolguin6609]

Its cute❤

[@damidget41]

I haven’t even started watching and I already know it’s my fav Password segment of all time.

[@tinaprice3194]

Agreed!

[@mavisgibson9057]

Mine too

[@baxterb1149]

Elmo: SATCHEL 😅 Jimmy: how old are you?!? 😅😂

[@AlexTrimpe]

That one got me good lollll

[@cs6515]

The adult puppeteer mixed with Elmo is amazing comedy!

[@djtundra8011]

The puppeteers are so good at their job and are amazing at staying in character

[@lildwaekki]

“Spaghetti” “COOKIE” HAD ME CRYING 💀💀💀

[@antonlvdm]

Haven't watched Sesame Street in years and forgot how infectiously sweet Elmo is!

[@Gamergirlllllllll9]

Jimmy and elmo "We WoN wE WoN wE wOn" got me

[@BlueJimmie48Fan]

It doesn't matter how old you are, you know your inner child comes out once you see Sesame Street muppets. 😊❤💙

[@FizzFizzFizzFizzFizz]

🍪

[@cookiemonster1787]

Yes

[@QueenMel_]

literally yesss

[@helenwagner9878]

Lol, Elmo knew satchel, pretty sure he'd know John wick 🤣

[@alimouse4593]

"Satchel?" "How old are you?" I can't 🤣🤣

[@matthewfendick]

This HAS to be my favorite Password Segment on this show! Gotta ❤ Elmo and Cookie Monster!!!

[@munsiffarook8693]

Elmo has been Three and Half since the 1980's 😂

[@amyreynolds3619]

So has TFP. 😮😊😅😂

[@nickia726]

okay but.... my inner child is healing... and my adulthood is being fulfilled.... i'm crying..... 😭🥺

[@RochelWaldman]

Nearing age 60 and I can watch Sesame Street again and again. Love them all!

[@tristanwilliams4180]

You are never to old for Sesame Street

[@MrBuc128]

Cookie Monster has a good sense of sportsmanship. He was happy that his friends won 🤣

[@jonathantrauner3742]

Elmo: CookieBook will be the next big thing. Cookie Monster: I couldnt agree more

[@MrwhopperGaming10]

Elmo: I’m 3 and a half The world: so who’s that red monster in the 90s

[@Joe_Narbaiz]

Elmo doesn't age like the rest of us. That was Elmo. 🤔😉

[@penguinista]

Three and a half _thousand_

[@donnywilliamson5807]

Elmo, Calvin, Charlie Brown, the Simpsons, Paul Rudd and Kate Beckinsale. All things that do not age

[@1224dlc]

I died when Elmo calls Higgins and does the head jester! 😂. I love Elmo!

[@catiehorner9336]

This is the best round of Password! The chaos is hilarious! 😂😂

[@miaalbanese6182]

"satchel??" had me floored omg

[@blakearnel7068]

2:24 Tarik already knew what was coming 😂

[@LegoGBlok]

well... its a sketch.. written sketch :)

[@blakearnel7068]

@@LegoGBlok no way sherlock..

[@miker.9810]

@@LegoGBlok These segments typically aren't sketches. There's zero evidence Tarik knew either. Nobody is correct here.

[@matisebenign]

Elmo's laugh 😂

[@cameronc8721]

2:42 I thought Elmo would say Mister for Mr. Noodle

[@jg5670]

Same!!

[@gabeandfriends3128]

I was expecting that too!!

[@nicholasgarrick8855]

It wouldve matter what clue , cookie monster was going to say cookie🤣.

[@beverlydavidson6749]

Elmo kills me with his funny faces

[@Sincerely_Cindy]

Me thinking there was gonna be a mr noodle reference 😂

[@lilliemoore93]

I swear me too lol

[@Grahzzyvtvlog]

Elmo is up past his bedtime 😂

[@rebeccaharkins2058]

How could this not bring a smile to your face?

[@masarothgames]

Elmo is "3" and can't read but he knows what Ramen is...lol

[@rebeccaharkins2058]

And satchel lol

[@HouseMDaddict]

The amount of parents that probably feed their 3 year olds ramen noodles nowadays. He's being "modern".

[@Fusionater]

Cookie Monster being great at giving clues but terrible at guessing is hilarious.

[@elsergecruz]

This is amazing! We need a weekly segment with the muppets please

[@jameswells2826]

I Love The Cookie Monster And Elmo So Much

[@alisonclarke1127]

Too funny 😂 It’s always good to see Elmo and Cookie when they visit

[@pinkzebraJC2]

I was thinking “Mister” for Noodle

[@nicktronson2977]

I just wanna eat cookies making Cookie Monster noises.

[@lavane26]

[@KA-eu9sy]

Cookie. You know Cookie Monster is going to say "Cookie" sooner or later. But it's still a funny shock when he does!

[@drewhager1851]

Muppet Performers: Ryan Dillon as Elmo David Rudman as Cookie Monster

[@evelynibarra2143]

Let's get Elmo on Family Feud with the sesame street gang

[@rowelle]

That would be tricky, but such a fun idea!

[@EdwardSanchezProductions]

I love Elmo and Cookie Monster so much

[@benvenables6583]

Im a 34 year d guy and this video made me feel like a kid again! ☺

[@maxcardun]

Good thing Cookie Monster brought a snack otherwise he would have ate Tariq's hat!

[@Lana-oz7np]

Elmo’s so cute 🥰

[@meleahsanchez8879]

Cutest thing ever! 😂

[@Dulcimerist]

The band did the old school Sesame Street "funky chimes" closing from the late 1970s at the end of the segment! That was epic!!! I'm sad they cut it off in this video, but props to the band for doing that song!

[@hsndifbbasj]

The final score 💀

[@ryanp9458]

I had to take a screenshot so I’d have a pic of Elmo and Jimmy Fallon celebrating 😂

[@photobombchamp]

Cookie is comedy gold

[@juberel]

I wonder how the puppeteers could read the cards without lowering them to their sight

[@electricgigolo]

Can this be a weekly thing? 😂

[@eduardoflores1503]

Thought Noodle was gonna be Mr. Noodle

[@joshuacyrus]

These two need to be on the show at least once a week

[@Marie-zq2fk]

I agree!😂

[@andrew8915]

We need more of this 😂❤

[@jodihawkins8115]

This was so fantastic! Really loved it!

[@antsamthompson9]

Mathew Gaydos: I'm sure there's a certain thrill, excitement, fun when you have rules in your head when you're performing a character like Elmo, of like "OK, we're improving right now, but I have to stay in this box, I am this old, I can say these things, I know these words." I'm sure that's exciting and sometimes maybe a little... Is it scary? Do you ever get nervous doing that? Ryan Dillon: No, but I often find myself doing things that are probably more indulgent than the character would allow for, because it is limiting. It's very limiting to play a 3-and-a-half year old on a late-night talk show because, that is an odd scenario. So you do have to bend the rules a little bit. I always feel like the ages, from a curricular perspective, it's really important to have an age to write to for the show, but I always feel like, we don't know how old Ernie and Bert are, and we don't really care, we don't really know how old Grover is, and we don't really care, I don't anyway, so for me, all the characters are child-like, but not children, they have an innocence and a childish wonder about them, but they're not babies, cause when you make them babies, it makes it really hard to make them funny. Sam Schultz: They're like really smart cats or dogs or something. Ryan: Yeah, they're wise but they're also really stupid. Matthew: Through the years, I feel like I've seen a number of clips of specifically you performing Elmo on Jimmy Fallon, where you can catch him off-guard with something, in a way where he's like "Did Elmo just say balsamic vinegar?" Ryan: Yes, we just had it the other day. I played Password. And I've been dying to play Password, cause we were supposed to do it before Covid, and I love game shows, I'm a total freak for that stuff, so I couldn't wait to play. And what's really hard in that game... I was playing for keeps. Like "I am playing this game, I'm gonna win this game." And so crazy things come out, like Elmo guesses satchel. And that was not Elmo guessing satchel, OK? That was Ryan Dillon guessing satchel. But there's a forgiveness because, it's already really complicated and complex to mentally wrap yourself around playing a character in that context who's meant to be younger, but then to be playing a game with an adult in that context... Cause we also had to do this thing where Elmo can't read, so Higgins had to whisper the clues. But I also love the dichotomy of a character who can't read but happens to know what satchel is. You know what I mean? There's this kinda duality. Matthew: You also have the moment where Higgins is whispering to Elmo not to you. Ryan: Yes, and I should say by the way, we were playing that game for real. I was looking up to see if I could get the whispering, I couldn't see what he was whispering. And sometimes I could see the card he was holding, and sometimes I couldn't see the card he was holding. So it was really like we were playing the game. But I love those moments. I think there's some forgiveness in those moments, just like with Jim and Frank, when they would do these shows, they kinda steer, cause you're also playing for a different audience, you're playing for the adults, you're not doing it for the kids. So those things are always fun. Sam: Muppets on talk shows, a beautiful, beautiful thing. Ryan: I agree. Sam: Should happen all the time. Ryan: It should.
