Description
For some reason, this strip was very hard to put together probably because it involved too much cut and pasting with the panels, the backgrounds, and the characters on separate layers.Bert and Ernie opening the show is actually based on the opening to the Sesame Street Live show "Elmo Makes Music" were Bert and Ernie greeted the audience and introduced the number and letter of the day. Ernie announcing Elmo is also based on a moment from a Sesame Street Live show ("Super Grover:Ready for Action" to be precise), where in the middle of the opening music number Big Bird says; "Oh boy! Look who's comming now. It's Elmo!" (In case you're wondering I haven't seen any of these shows, I've only seen clips on youtube).
Originally I had Elmo jump out willingly, but I thought it would be funnier if Ernie just pushed him out.
Triva: Elmo originally started off as a background character who would often change performers for every appearance, it wasn't until the miid 1980's and when Kevin Clash started preforming him that Elmo became a main character on the show.

Deviantart is officially cooler than YouTube.

I was hoping you'd do another one of these. And good idea about Ernie pushing Elmo onstage, the idea of Elmo being willingly dominant is WAY too overplayed, as seemingly true as it might be. I kinda think of Elmo's "stardom" as more forced onto him like any other abused child star, with brash stage parents who get to splurge the money made by their famous children and only the spoils of Hollywood to give them any company regardless of it being good or bad.

And after the show Bert woke up, and was happy to know the show went on. Caahaha.
