On Air: Cookie Monster
» Hear the 'All Things Considered' radio commentary
Watch the Video:
Elizabeth Blair led off this blog with a post that confessed her fondness for Cookie Monster. Now her magnificent obsession has made it to the radio — and to the video.
As part of our In Character explorations, we convinced Cookie Monster to come to NPR's New York studios, where Elizabeth talked to him about the boundaries of his appetites — and got him to answer a version of the Proust Questionnaire. The video is above, as well as on the story page.
Oh, and you'll definitely want to watch through to the end. Check the expression on Blair's face when Cookie pulls that [spoiler deleted] off the desk to eat it. If you're wondering what she's so alarmed about, I'm guessing it's whether she's going to have to pay for a replacement: Those things run thousands of dollars apiece.

This is hilarious!! I love cookie monster! I wonder if I could put this on facebook
:D That was fun!
I <3 NPR
Haha, wonderful interview!
Rarely have I seen a celebrity interview so thoroughly informative as this one.
I've always loved Cookie Monster. Thank you for this delightful interview.
Thanks you for bringing us Cookie Monster. He has been a part of our lives as my children grew up, he certainly has toughed my life more than B Spears or other "famous" but irrelevant people. I am watching this with my 7 year old right now. Thank you
Thank you NPR for a wonderful interview!!! The Incharacter segment with Cookie Monster was captivating! I am 31 and I love the Muppets-- forever!
Thank you.This actually brought me to tears. One time, my friends and I used to say Cookie Monster had a bit of obsessive compusilve disorder, due to his behavior for the sake of cookies. This quickly evolved into a term CMing, for whenever one of us went a little nutty about any food item/tv show/shoes or anything else that makes one act obsessive. Thank you for this interview.
lovely! i'm a big fan of cookie myself! i still regret for never buying a tickle-me cookie that came out during the tickle-me elmo craze. the cookie one cracked me up everytime i touched it!
Oh, I love Cookie Monster. This made my weekend. Elizabeth is one lucky gal!
Thank you so much for this video. It made me laugh and cry with joy. Cookie Monster is such a wonderful and heart-warming character.
This is absolutely, positively, wonderful. Profound silliness. Thank you, Elizabeth Blair. Thank you, Sesame Street. Thank you, Cookie Monster!
C is for cookie that's good enough for me............
had to watch it.after hearing it..that was fun for a Monday!
I seem to appreciate Cookie Monster more and more as I get older. He is one of the original dry humorists, and I laugh every time I watch him. Thank you for such a delightful interview!
One of the funniest interviews I 've seen on npr! You always keep it fresh, thank you!
Dude, Cookie Monster ROCKS!!! Yay, that was awesome! Thanks for making me smile today!
Anyone know where I can find a version of the song, "Menomenah" that closed the segment?
my history teacher showed this to me and my class mates caouse he thought it was pretty cool and we should know about it...........we had a laugh!!!!!!!!! we really needed it too cause we had just taken a test....
when i got home, i showed it to my brothers and they loved it!!!!!!!
That was so funny! Cookie monster must hate Oscar the grouch!
Gimme more, more, more! Me want more fun!
Thank you NPR! You've been with me as long as the muppets.
I disagree strongly that cookies are a "sometimes food," in which case Cookie Monster now has super-ego.
Cookie Monster rocks. There is no other way to put it.
I grew up with Sesame Street, and while Grover was my favorite, Cookie Monster was a real close second.
My 14yr old son heard this on NPR and told me about it this morning - we're home for a snow day. Nothing would do but to watch the segment AND see the special ending. Now... we're eating cookies, of course.
I think what I love about Cookie Monster so much is how much he enjoys life. He lives, for the most part, in the moment and knows simple pleasures are the best.
That was just plain delightful.
Cookie Monster is one of my favorite Muppets; I even got my son a Cookie Monster costume for his first Halloween.
Zach - Mahna Mahna is on the 'Songs from the Street' CD box set and the 'Platinum Too' CD. It's also on the first-season Muppet Show DVD set. It's probably on other albums, but those are the two that are probably not out of print.
For me Cookie Monster was a sometimes favorite monster. My alltime favorites were Alice (Snuffy the Snuffalupagus's little sistes), Snuffy and Oscar.
cooooookie!
My 11 and 14 yr old sons have been playing this interview over and over. My own moment of solidarity with Cookie Monster came with, "I don't know what you are talking about, Lady." How many times have I thought the same, listening to Will Shortz and Carl Kasell? :-) Keep this stuff coming!
Delightful, sweet and delicious! I remember sitting with my daughters and watching Sesame Street between careers and just loving it. Cookie and Grover were my favorites. Thank you, npr and Ms. Blair for this few minutes of joy and laughter!
My God, you fed him broccoli! And you call yourself a *host*? You have defiled a sacred childhood memory - go hang your head in shame.
"C is for cookie, that's good enough for me. yum-yum-yum-yum"
my daughter calls him "cooka-MON-stair" but she absolutely loves him. as do i!
That was fantastic! Thanks so much for sharing!
That interview made the world better. Thanks, NPR.
Great!
Next, can you interview Triumph the Insult Dog?
Absolutely, positively funny!
Cowabunga!
This is easily one of the most wonderful segments I have ever heard on NPR. Can Elizabeth interview other Sesame Street characters too? Oscar the Grouch should get a chance to defend himself from Cookie Monster!
i used to love the cookie monster when I was little! I still do! And so do all my friends! (Barney freaks me out though!) =S
verry tru!
That was pretty stupid and a waste of two minutes of my life.
having a rough morning and this really made me smile..i would like to upload it to my space can anyone tell me how??
Hahah this is awesomazing! Is thereb any way i could embed this on another site?
I love cookie monster he is so funny!

Ihad never seen such an interesting interview.
Hahahahahaha! So funny!
Cookie Monster is a GOD!
haha thats so funny! i <3 the cookie monster!!!!
Thank you for the amazing interview with Cookie Monster. He is one of my favorites from Sesame Street. I grew up with Sesame Street and would like to thank you for the stroll down memory lane. Good job NPR.

COOOOKIE!!! ahnamnamnamnam! deeelishus!
OMG..cookie monstor was hilarious..they should have more interviews with all the muppets!!
I LOVED Cookie Monster since I was a kid and this was so cute!! There's just that something so loveable about him in his blue furry funny way that is irresistible!! I wish I was interviewing him. What is his Favorite cookie is what I want to know!? lol but don't think he has much discretion! :D
My kids may not have undersood all of it but we all loved it just the same. Cookie Moster rules!!
Of all my childhood memories, watching Cookie Monster (my favorite) on Sesame Street is one of the best! Thanks for taking me on a journey back in time. That was a joy!
That was great, just exactly what I needed after a rough day of work..
That was funny!
This is the most intellectual interview I have seen EVER! I wish the politicians and all those snobby stars would be so open and forthcoming in the media. The world would be a better place.
Nice. teaching kids to be vulgar and selfish like this dumb "Cookie Monster". Worse than Homer Simpson. Only Winnie the Pooh is far worse.
This 45 year old man in Orlando,FL thought that interview was great. I also would like to see more interviews with other Sesame Street characters.
That was on of the funniest things I have heard or seen all day :D
JUST AWESOME. It's like the song "sure could use a little good news today"....and this is it. Thanks so much for the smile.
I love the part when he says I come all the way to NPR from Seaseme Street
Love NPR and love cookie monster, well done people!
What a wonderful interview NPR! I remember watching Sesame Street myself as a child in the early 70's, and now have 3 children of my own, my baby Catherine who is 1 Year Old now watches daily! This is a treasure! Loved every minute of it! We'll be waiting to see your next Sesame Street interview! : )
I was on the edge of my seat to find out what his favorite bad/dirty word was. He is such a class act!
Cokkie monster is cool. YANKEES RULE!
Absolutely wonderful! I have been a Cookie monster fan since I was a child. It was good to see him on NPR. Way to go Cookie Monster!!!!
No matter how old I get, he still makes me smile and laugh. Great piece.
There should be more interviews just like that one.
I enjoyed this video very much. For I am fascinated by children shows and the creativity involved and thought this to be one of the most prominent as well as valuable characters on TV in the world today.
OMG! This was great, love cookie monster. When are you guys getting The Count on the show or Grover?
WHAT A CHARACTER!!!I GOT A 9 MONTH OLD AND HE REMINDS ME OF THE COOKIE MONSTER EVERYDAY.THERE IS NOTHING HE WONT TRY TO EAT...AND HE LOVES THEM COOKIES TOO.
I have loved Cookie Monster since i can remember, thanks for that it has made my day!!! I couldn't stop laughing
hahahah omg so funny whats ur dirty word oscar on coach what do u wanna hear god say when u arive at the holy gates karabunga!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ahaha so funny
Great. I'm 39 yrs old and can still laugh at great characters like cookie monster. Just clean comments with a good meaning.
Very well done...where have those years gone to?? When life was simple and all the drama of our world was rapped up into one line one word, "CoOkIeS!"
Coookie Monster! He was my favorite when I was little. We would yell his name whenever we drove over a bridge and the car made Cookie Monster eating sounds. Although I remember I used to get a little irritated with him as a kid because when he ate cookies so much of them ended up outside his mouth than in. "What a waste of cookies," I thought. This was great. Thank you.
this was awesome!!!! i loved it. this was the best interview i've ever seen!!
I LOVE COOKIE MONSTER. I EVEN HAVE C IS FOR COOKIE AS ONE OF MY RINGTONES.
My 2.5 yr old smiled himself silly! I wish there were more things like this for me and my kids to watch!
Cookie Monster, how cute!
that was very cute indeed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Favorite Word: COOOKIE
Least Favorite Word: OUT-A-COOOKIE
Brilliant
That just made my day:)
Now I'm craving a cookie...
That was hilarious! XD
toast is good and COOKIES TOO!!!!!!!!!
i got to say way to go npr i loved it!
Thank you for sharing this delightful video! I especially enjoyed Cookie Monster's hatred of the word "pusillanimous" and his favorite dirty word. Cowabunga!
thanks for this interview..it made me laugh!!
Absolutely wonderful. Good on ya NPR
40 years of Sesame Street. Few characters in the history of television have ever been so enduring, consistent and so beloved.
Well Done NPR
I loved it! I am 26 and it took me back to my childhood! It was soooo funny. Now back to work I go.
That was great!! cookie monster is and will always be a delight, this put a smile on my face and in my heart.
Wonderful interview. Cookie Monster was my favorite decades ago, and he still makes me giggle with delight. I like that he has expanded his choice of delicacies to include other food groups (for the sake of modern political correctness) but to see him devour cookies brought back good memories...sure hope that microphone was ok. Thanks for that clip!
Cookie Monster is my favorite character!! The interview was very funny. Good to know some things about Cookie that aren't touched on during the show.
I am 30 years old. When I was a child Cookie Monster was my favorite.
That was really cool! Cookie Monster is the best! I loved it...hehehehe!!

Wow ! That was great !This is the kind of news we need today,in a world of tragedy....Cookie Monster was a wonderful guest and quick to wit with his answers.I was rolling on the floor with laughter and couldn't help myself !Bert and Ernie would be a great follow-up to that interview .Great job NPR !What a great way to start off the day !
So "out of cookies" is his least favorite word that was obvious. HA!HA! His biggest chalange was the solid metal microphone. GO COOKIE MONSTER!
Aha, this is enjoyable.
Cookie Monster is the man! he's loved by several generation. My he influence many more. He's a positive figure, funny, loving and so very happy for the simple things like a cookie folks. and whom ever doesn't think so. Loosen up!!
This adorable innocent silliness is just what we need age doesnt matter.Just what the doctor ordered and i needed this Sunday morning. I loved watching Cookie Monster as a little girl and I'm in my 40's now. He still makes me smile and giggle Great Idea!!
this is hilarious
luv ya cookie monster
i wonder if i can put this on myspace?
When my children were toddlers, part of our bedtime routine was for all of us to sing songs from Sesame Street. Each had specific favorites, but "C is for Cookie" was one we all agreed on as one of the Great Ones. They're in their 20's now, but I will make sure they each see this. Thanks for a great smile and memory.
I'm 22 years old and the Cookie Monster is still someone I'd enjoy watching!
So much better than listening to politicians, Thanks NPR!
thiswas a great way to start a day
It started out being very cute and funny but the question "IF God Exist"makes me wonder what doubts you are suggesting to young children who watch this?It would otherwise have been a great interview.
this annoyed me profuesly...coulndt even sit through the whole thing
This is a wonderful interview! My son loved it! Next you should do Fluffy!
I agree let's interview all the Sesame Street monsters. Elmo, Big Bird, Ernie, Bert, Oscar, Zoe, Abby, Snuffy, Grover/Supoer Grover, The Count, Telly. Baby Bear, Herry Monster, Guy Smiley and more. Sesame Street is cool. Everybody should watch.
This was awesome!! I watched it with my 3 year old and we both thought it was so funny. He's our favorite. So much fun!
I've been a Cookie Monster fan since...well...1970, at least...as my college pals nick-named me "Cookie" cuz of my love for the CM. They even gave me, for Christmas, a Cookie Monster hand puppet...complete with a hole in his mouth to swallow cookies...and cardboard chocolate chip cookies! Yumm!The NPR interview was definitely fun to see! Thanks!
Cookie Monster for president. He can't do any worse. :)
How could you not love cookie monster???!!!!
omg!!!that was sooooo funny...i couldn't stop laughing...
Did that woman just ask, "IF God exists..."? I can't believe she asked that! IF?!?!?!
I Want My Cookie
that is sooooo cute!!!!!!
omg i love cookie monster and this was hilarious. specially at the end when he tried to eat the microphone.
He is the cutest, most adorable, bestest character ever. Cookie Monster just made my entire week! This surely lightened up my mood and I feel a whole lot better now.
Although I'm still getting through the fact that Cookie Monster ate veggies...
0_o . . .
VERY good. VERY funny indeed.. Bravo!
jason
I'm in love with this interview he was my favorite monster when I was a child and between us he still is. . .
I respect Cookie deeply for his deep convictions and unshakable philosophies.
I wish there were more like him.
You go, mon!!
Cookie Monster remeinds me of being a kid. he was my all time favorite when I was a kid. Cowabunga Cookie Monster!!!
This was a wonderful interview!
Thanks doing this interveiw. I've loved Cookie Monster since I was a kid.
This was great!!! Every so often you see something that makes you feel like a child again. I sat here, all 6'2" 300 lbs of 37 year old construction worker me, and grinned like a six year old for the whole thing. IT WAS GREAT! THANKS!! Chad
I just love cookie monster. I have been watching him on Sesame Street since my kids were small...and now they have kids of their own! My kids first birthday cake was a cookie monster!
Precious moment to see Cookie again. I have forwarded this to my grandson so he can begin to enjoy the antics. Right now he's fixated on Fraggle Rock; another great adventure in puppetry with strong teaching elements.
I thought when he got to heaven he would ask for Jim, his creator. Maybe that's second on his list.
I love cookie monster i wish i could meet him!
This is the funniest vidio ever.
Hi, I live in Iran and love the "monster". please print the text of the interview since the internet speed in iran is so slow that it would take a life time to download the clip.
Love from Iran
C is for COOKIE!!!!! im 23, and i still love u cookie monster, and i know that my kids will enjoy watching you and the others every day!
I SUPER DOOPER DOOPER LOVE WIT ALL MY HEART COOKIEMONSTER!!!!!!DATZ MY NICKNAME!!I LOVE HIM ND ELMO.THEY ARE MY FAVORITE!!!!!!YEAAAAAAAAAAAA COOKIEMONSTER!!!!
I thought the interview was very good, and humurous it shows that even in adulthood we all can still have our favorite childhood friends. It just so happens that Cookie Monster is one of mine. It was excellent.
Abso-smashingly-lutely phenomenal. Years just seemed to vanish as I watched the interview. Cookie Monster is such an amazing icon, it was fun to see and hear him after sooo many years. It had me in tears, laughing so hard, the second time I watched it.
That was so Great! Cookie Monster you are the Best! Would love to see more!
i so love the cookie monster...he has beem my all time favorite of seseame street other than elmo that was a acute video
This is amazing, Cookie monster is my faoverite Sesame Street character. My kids loved it. I would love to add this to Myspace

cookie monster has ruled my heart for 35+ years!!!

I have been a big fan of Cookie Monster since I was a child. He was my inspiration. I wanted to be like him so much, so that I picked up the habit of eating cookies. Thank you, NPR for having Cookie Monster on your show.
i never realized how much i love this guy. plus i'm so amused with this video. i wish miss elizabeth could interview each of the rest of the sesame street gang.
That was truly delightful I haven't smiled so much in a long time.
Interesting!
lol, i think he really did eat the microphone at the very end, the ladies face was priceless, either that or he broke something XD
Cookie monster rocks he is the greatest muppet of them all even beats out kermit now that says something
THAT WAS AWESOME! IT JUST MADE MY DAY ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!!!!
I loved Cookie from day one. He delighted my kids and is archetypal at this point in my life. Rock on Cookie Monster
That was great! I love it!
This was a great NPR segment, absolutely invigorating, and a wonderful way to help young children become interested in journalism.
Cookie Monster made me laugh when I was 7 and he continues to make me laugh at 37. Great interview!
Thanks for the great video! I posted it on facebook for all to see and love! I mean, who doesnt love cookie monster? What i wouldnt do to meet him in person....

This interview had me and my son on the floor with laughter!! Thanks for the interview!
AWESOME!!!!!! COWABUNGA!!!!!!
Ok, that was fun, but whats up with the favorite "curse word"? No real need to go there.
I loved Cookie Monster when I was little. Now my children love him!!!
OUT OF COOKIE ! hahahahaha. Thanks, CM for president
What a great segment. I love cookie monster!! He has always been my favorite on Sesame Street. I draw the line at sardine ice cream too!
Awww...Thank you so much for taking me back to my childhood years.I just adore Cookie Monster!
i loved it when he started eating the mic.XD
Cookie M. is one of my heroes. Funny, and a great philosopher. Good lessons about keeping things simple to be happy. Makes me want to go out and eat a microphone.
That was priceless cookie monster footage. It's amazing how he's not aged over the years ( Must be plastic surgery)
I am 50 years old and Cookie Monster still makes me laugh. I love him. Cookie Monster and The Count are my most favorite Sesame Street characters. Thank you for this delightful video.
I saw the interview and loved it. Cookie Monster is adorable in his mischievious way.
i love cookie monster i want to put in on myspace^^
that was great
This was so cute to watch.. Very nicely done !!1
OMG! Cookie monster is the best and so hilarious.I loved cookie monster as a kid and I still love him now. Thanks for the interview NPR, I enjoyed it.
Awwwwww, I'd love to see his interview after he's out of rehab!!!LOL
Much better than having Brit Spears or any other "famous" celeb on the show.
NPR needs to interview more people such as Mister Rogers or fictional characters such as Optimus Prime
I remember wanting to ride my tricycle into the big 19" console floor TV we had back in the 70's just so I could be on Sesame Street I love Cookie Monster. He helped me understand that "monsters" aren't all bad.
cookie monstor rules
I think why Elizabeth was so surprised when Cookie Monster took the [not posting spoiler here] away is that when he was eating it it loud to the headphones.
i love cookie monster so much! that was so funnny
With all the madness going on in the world, Cookie Monster was a much needed break! Thank you for the interview....and thank you to Cookie!!
LOL We used to call our grandfather the COOKIE MONSTER. Thanks
love it! C-O-O-K-I-E!!!
LAWL! that is too funny! I'm going into Puppeteering for my career, stuff like this really inspires me
Hahahaha! What's your favorite word?
I'm willing to bet that 99.9999% of all
who have watched this got Cookie Monster's answer correct..
That was so funny Elizabeth asked what is you favorite notty work. Who would ask that that is so funny. can Elmo have a chance to too.
Not that is what I wanted to say!!!!
I ABSOLUTELY ADORE THIS. PLEASE KEEP IT UP! I wish there were something like this in Honduras...I help out in a radio station (really small one..brand new...am frequency) on my weekends. I will pass on this video to my boyfriend who owns the station. They have a kid's program somewhere in between. WATCHING THIS CLIP WILL DEFINITELY BE AN INSPIRATIONAL MOMENT FOR HIM.
Very cute
That was the best! Thank you so much for doing that interview
Thanks you for bringing us Cookie Monster. He has been a part of our lives as my children grew up, he certainly has toughed my life more than B Spears or other "famous" but irrelevant people. I am watching this with my 7 year old right now. Thank you

Hmm I think even B.Spears can type better than that... lol
Have more celebrity interviews like this one. I enjoyed it. I'm a cookie monster myself.
me love cookie monster!!!!!
That was awesome! I love Cookie Monster!
I loved the Cookie Monster interview. It was soo funny!:D I hope more Cookie Monster items hit the stores. He has always been my favorite monster since I was a child.
That was Cute!!
Very Cute ! Me Love Cookie
COWABUNGA!!! Amen Cookie Monster, I'd like to hear God say that as well.
It's a rare thing to be entertained that thoroughly these days by something so wholesome and creative. My applause.
OMG ROFL! SOOO FUNNY! i want to know if i can put this on my site...
I LOVE CM AND OSCAR AND GROVER... I AM 71 YRS. YOUNG AND WHEN I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL WE HAD A SNUFFLEUFAGUS AS OUR LUNCHROOM MASCOT, THIS WAS BEFORE SESAME STREET.. MY KIDS, GRANDKIDS AND GREATGRANDKIDS ALL WERE WEANED ON SESAME STREET... WHATS NOT TO LOVE AND A GREAT TEACHING TOOL AS WELL...
that's uhm..awsome..lol
tengo 34 a??os y a??ore mi ni??ez como nunca con esta entrevista le confiezo que hasta llore, me gustaria obtener mas informacion de todos aquellos personajes de la familia sesamo para ense??arcelos a mis hijos y sobrinos, gracias
lol. That was funny. For a minute there, I thought he was really going to say a curse word!
hahaha sardine ice cream!!!
that was rather cute..
The staying power and enduring popularity of these characters will know no end. It is a true testament to the absolute creative genius and kind spirit of their creators, artists who have left us a legacy that will be as wonderfully vital and integral to every new generation of children who discover them as they were (and are still) to us today. Long after the current headline grabbers of our music, film and sports pop culture have faded away into yesterdays celeb nobodies, our muppet neigbors will still be here to be our friends, make us laugh and maybe even teach our children an alphabet letter or two. There isn't a celebrity alive who wouldn't kill for the popularity, longevity, influence or sheer entertainment value of a Bert and Ernie, Cookie Monster, The Count or any of our wonderful muppet friends. You can keep your celebrity idols and role models thanks. All mine are furry monsters and always seem to know just the right thing to say.
I wonder if the interview with Cookie Monster occurred because NPR uncovered that he is one of the super-delegates....
to me from me
Oscar the grouch, thats one dirty word :D
Oh my gosh...i love this vid..=3
can anyone send it to me? it will be much appreciated. ^^
Thanks Elizabeth for interviewing one of my greatest fave on sesame street!??
I'm 40 and watching this made me feel 7 again - Thanks so much!
Made me teary-eyed as this interview brought me back to my childhood days. Always loved Cookie Monster. Loved the way he enjoyed simple things in life. Yep! That's the lesson...devour life as if that's is your last cookie.
hahaha cookie monster is so funny
Best NPR interview EVER!
AWESOME interview COOKIE!!!!! My friend would have loved it too, he was a big fan of urs!
I loved it!!. Cookie Monster is my favorite monster, he has ADHD like me. Watching Cookie Monster as a child did help me develop a love for life, a love to treat others with respect and of course... cookies!!!
where can I find this video clip? i love it! =)
Haha I watched Cookie Monster as a little kid- loved it!
i want this on my myspace. if someone figures it out will you post on here.
Ha ha ha ha decent. Cookie rules !
This was so cute and yet so different. It was a great side of Cookie Monster to see. Growing up watching Sesame Street, he was my favorite character and he still is to this day. This interview made me love him even more. I was just so happy he was able to eat cookies again.
It was hilarious and informative. Thank so much.
i love cookie monster
"If I have two cookies and you have two cookies, and i take your cookies,I have four cookies". Direct quote from the cookie monster.
I am 68 and a grandma and love the muppets. In 1988 my husband and I went to a costume party for Fat Tues. He went as Big Bird and I went as Cookie Monster. His Mom baked cookies and
wrapped them individually and I handed
them out and we stayed in costume for
4 hours and didnot reveal our identity
until the end of the night. Of course
we got 1st prize!! My husband has since
passed but this is a wonderful memory.
Thanks for the interview!
I grew up with Cookie Monster and he is my favorite monster. Once a classic always a classic!Me love cookies!
that was great!!! coookie monster rocks!
Cracked me up! The ice cream trick was nice, funny too, but Henson Productions might have had a problem with it all over Cookie Monster's fur... Very nice Elizabeth, it brought back good memories...
His voice sounds different from the way I remmember it. Cookie sounded and reminded me of a slightly mentally challenged guy I knew who I'd wrestle with in elementary. He was a challenge. Last time I saw him, he wrestled a guy who pinned him in about three seconds. The guy jumped down, grabbed his legs together, lifted him up, slammed him to the side and pinned him, just THAT fast. I was embarrassed for him big time.
When's she going to talk to the greatest living american - Elmo?
C O O K I E !!!
I think cookie Monter is a good character for all children, learn namy thing. Im so please many year doing good job on TV show for all children learn before start 1 grade...Thank for TV show many year For my Children ....learning education in the furture.....
Me want more cookies!!!!
Vote for Bert For President. If he would look good on a dollar bill he would really look good in the oval office.
This is the best interview I have ever seen anywhere. Thanks so much for this as Cookie Monster is my favorite character from Sesame Street. I grew up with Sesame Street.
i really enjoyed that. hes always been my favorite character. thank you
That Was FUNNYYYYYYYYYYYY!
dos cookie monter have a myspace
This was wonderful I want to see the rest of the Street interviewed.
I enjoyed Cookie, but it was great to see Elizabeth Blair's smile and delight in the interview. It was all beautiful.
In light of all that has been going on in the world lately, it was great to see something that had nothing to do with B. Spears....honestly.......this was entertaining and refreshing....and shame on whomever thought of offering Cookie the broccoli.....that person should have to eat the ice cream!!!!
Thanks for making me laugh!!!
Great job.That was good!!!
Thank you for so much fun! It was delightful.
I now forever love NPR with all my sunfflelufula things. Long live Cookie monster.
After all these years, I still think that Sesame Street is still my biggest hit television show. I still believe that Christmas Eve on Sesame Street is one of my greatest Christmas specials around, and it will always be.
The best interview I have heard in years!
COWABUNGA!
THANKS!
KIM
I'd like to see Ms. Blair interview Yoda.
oh i always Love
Seaseme Street. How can you get this on codes so you can copy paste for example and put as bulletin
in Myspace??
I love cookie Monster
=-)
someone asked about a copy of Ma na ma na - it's available on the boxed set "Songs from the Street" - might be more than you are looking for, but on the other hand, it's a great trip..
Haha! That's SO funny, you need to bring like Spongebob or something on the show thingy mabob.
COOKIE MONSTER ROCKS!!! MY BABY GIRL LOVES HIM. HES NOT AS ANNOYING AS ELMO.
LOL That was a laugh! ^_^
Thanks NPR! My little Mikayla is all ready for Elmo!
Should have asked the Cookie Monster if he likes Green Eggs and Ham.
This is funny.
Awwww, this is extremely cute. How can you not love Cookie Monster? We all grew up with him

I love Cookie Monster =-)
Much respect for cookie monster paving the way for death metal vocalist everywhere, stay metal cookie monster! COOOKIESS!!!
I love the cookie monster! I always have, ever since I was little. Is there any way I could put this on facebook, or e-mail it?
And you wonder how crap like pokeyman is so popular. Cookie can still make you laugh at any age. coookkiieee! Me like cookie!
haha, i sure hope God says "COWABUNGA!!" too :)
This is hilarious!
loved! loved! loved! Made me smile and lol. Hope NPR will have other Sesame Street characters and muppets interviews. p.s. been a fan before Sesame Street.
I took one of those fun computer surveys and the Sesame Street character I was most like was Cookie Monster-- so appropriate because I love cookies and I love Cookie Monster even more! I throughly enjoyed this interview! Bring on more Sesame Street!!!
That was positively uplifting...... Cookie Monster's ALL you need after a bad day..... Thank you for keeping our precious childhood memories alive...........
Cookie Monster is quite the charmer! Thank you NPR for this wonderful program with Cookie Monster. After watching it, I made my mother watch it as well. This was a pleasan treat. Now if only you guys made him put on that Master Piece Theatre outfit with the pipe!! woohooo!
I love Cookie Monster and that was funny as hell.
Cookie Monster is my favorite of all the Sesame Street Charachters.
I cant wait for my 1 yr old niece to discover him for the 1st time
At age 54, with a kid in college and one a h.s. senior, Sesame Street is long-gone from our TV. But, I watched this all by myself and was laughing out loud (LOL, in my kids' lingo)! I forgot how much I had enjoyed these characters. Thanks!
aww that was so great. it made my day.
COWABUNGA !!!!!
Oh, this was so fun to watch! I felt like a child and laughed like one, something I hadn't done in a long time. I love the way Cookie monster talks! I love his appetite! And C is for Cookie, and that's so wonderful for me :) Thank you NPR! I loved it.
i soo love cookie monster! in fact, i have his song, c is for cookie as my message tone!
I love Cookie monster This made me Smile!:)
Beautiful
this is great i love cookie monster ;)
That was so funny,that was the best interview i have ever seen. Every person who grew up watching Sesame Street needs to see this. It makes me feel like a kid again. Thanks for keeping me young.
I loved it! Cookie Monster is the best :)Young and old love him. Specially those of us that grew up watching him...wait wouldn't that mean everyone? lol.
That was the cutest thing I've ever seen...ever! Cracks me up.
cookie monster is the best!! COOKIES!!
Awesomeness!
OMG!!i luv it!!
'C' is for Cookie, thats good enough 4 me!!!!!!!!!!!!
This made my morning. Cookie Monster is one of my favorite characters. This was so sweet, and I am glad you did this interview.
Cooooooooooookie!!!! Loved him with my daughters, and now with my granddaughter. Love it.. Love it.. Love it.. You did an excellent job.
i loved this!! i love cookie monster, and i hope that there will me more sesame street characters interviewed!! i am personally pushing for Oscar the Grouch and also Elmo.
My 2 year old Grandaughter loved the interview, and we love Cookie Monster.
Great interview!
I needed a good laugh today! This was so funny! Put a smile on my face!
lol..It's solid steel.. :)
We dounloaded Mnumana (sp?) from iTunes -- there were different versions to choose from.
My berserker husband wants to know where he can get sardine ice cream. Although we do have an ice cream making machine, so if anyone has the recipe, that would do too!
I LOVE the image of the Big Guy yelling "Cowabunga!" Gives me a new view of Him and sort of restores my faith!
If Heaven exists, I want to hear Jim Henson say 'COWABUNGAAAAAA!' when he sees me. This clip was genius... wow! Thanks, NPR, I needed that today.
Watching cookie monster on sesame street was a wonderful part of my childhood back in Nigeria in the early 80s. I fondly remember inviting my dad several times to come watch him. Thanks for bringing him on npr.
Thank you for posting this funny blog! This Spring, at Central State University in Wilberforce Ohio, we have a special Honors Colloquium of the Sesame Street Muppets led by a professor from the University of Wisconsin - Madison. Will you be interviewing other Sesame Street characters?
omg.... that was the greatest interview ever....i have always loved cookie monster...this was great....
That was an awesome interview! I love Cookie Monster. What an American ICON! Great story! Need a smile
NPR is never boring and this illustrates why. Thanks for conducting an interview that appeals to such a broad audience!
Loved the Cowabunga! By the way the meaning of Pusillanimous:Lacking courage; cowardly. Love the Cookie Monster! Please give us more like this.
:)
COOKIE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Loved it!
That was great....do you think you could get my fav... Snuffelofagus????
I grew up with this blue monster, so has my daughters, and now my grandchildren...he just seems to have what it takes to reel in anyone, and memorize them
I absolutely loved this. I am 35 years old and still have the stuffed Cookie Monster I got when I was a little kid. He will always be Cookie no matter what they have him eat now.
That was a great interview. Loved that he ate the broccoli, and said that he loved broccoli, maybe that will help more kids to love broccoli, now that Cookie Monster eats it!!! I grew up watching Sesame Street, and Cookie was always my favorite character!! He still makes me laugh today, at the age of 36!!! I think Elizabeth should interview other characters, such as Oscar, Big Bird, and Burt and Ernie.
Made my day. Cookie was great when I was a kid, and still awesome at 43!
cookie monster is great! made me laugh!
wow he is just the great!!! i can't believe you guys got him wow, still he is my fav. and they should make a movie on all sesame street again they are the best!!!!!!
Great interview. I really enjoyed the Cookie Monster. As usual, the performance was fantastic. The operator of Cookie Monster must have found the working room very limited.
c is for cookie thats good enough for me... he has his own song. I love cookie monster..
that was wicked funny i watched cookie monster since i was a kid and so does my daughter
Thanks, Elizabeth, NPR, and Cookie Monster, my granddaughter, EMMA, and I loved it! Will have to tune in to hear some more.
I am 50 year old and I watched this with my 16 months old daughter. She enjoyed it and waived bye bye to Cookie Monster. Elizabeth seemed to enjoy it too!
Thanks NPR, I grew up watching Sesame Street and I love all the muppets especially Cookie Monster. I believe there is a little bit of each muppet inside of us and for me it will always be Cookie Monster. Me want COOOOOOKKKIIEEESSSS!!!!!!!!
Absolutely wonderful. My grandmother used to call me a "cookie monster" because I ate so many cookies. I disagree with Cookie on one issue. I think Gordon should be on a bank note.
That was absolutely great! What a nice way to reconnect to those sweet childhood memories
Thank you for having Cookie Monster in your show =) I was cracking up all the time.. He is such a funny Monster.. My daughter and I were so happy when we seen this!
That interview was so cute and funny. Elizibeth's reactions are priceless. VERY WELL DONE. That made my sunday morning. THANKS!
OUTTACOOKIES! does that count?
I love Cookie Monster!
i have one simple word that i think will describe my feelings, COOKIE!!!! and if you aint down with that, you know what to do!
That was neat! I'm proud to say that, that was the only radio interview I've ever completely watched. Go cookie monster!
this was great i love cookie monster
im gona make my buddy look at this
Cookie Monster is always a Delight! Takes me back to the day when as a child I grew up with Sesame Street!
can't believe cookie monster can say those ind of words, shouldn'thave answered favorite dirty word question
As a student studying to be an Early Childhood educator, I enjoyed this interview thouroughly. I will be showing this interview to my teachers, my friends, and all the children I am involved with. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!!
Hay I like this,do Elmo next plezzzz
My hero!
I love Cookie Monster!!! I feel nostalgic....I love the Muppets
this is the best interveiw i have ever seen!it was heart warming!i couldnt stop laughing!!
Does Corey Taylor do Cookie Monster's voice?
omg. hahaha, i cant believe they interviewed the cookie monster.
i love him!!!!!!!!
this interview just makes me hungry.
i remember watching this show, it was cool. i wish i never grew out of it because its so much fun to watch.
MOSTLY TRUE STORIES ARE NON BELIEVABLE
SOME TIMES VERY RARELY FICTION WORKS
VERY HARD TO ACCEPT AS AN IMAGINATION
GOOD WORK!
haha nice interview wonder if i can download it....
real great! we're all having fun!!!
Hilarious fun!
It is so cute. I loved it and it brought laughter to my face,
ingenious
Saw this posted on the Yahoo! front page; this interview so very much deserved the publicity. Way to go, NPR! Great interview--I bet James Lipton is wishing *he* could have asked the questions...
I actually had a laugh out of that one. I loved the part were you were trying to feed him brocoli. Thanks for a fun interwiew with the cookie monster. I enjoyed it. Keep up the good work guys.
Great stuff. How about the lovable, furry monster Grover next? Your ultra-liberal listeners could benefit from a detailed explanation of "near" and "far" in the post-9/11 world!
OMG! I love this Interview! Cookie Monster is the best ever!!!
Thanks for the laugh. I think it is great that Cookie Monster was on the air.
Thank You very much.... I really love cookie monster and the gang. I use to watch it with my brother. I wish they would have it on at a time my kid could watch it. This sure did bring back the good time with my brother. Thank you me want cookies
Cookie Monster for President! Ok, at least VP!
fabulous! took me back to being 6 again - thank you!!
Fantastic!
My serious question is. Who could not like this character? Whoever it is that doesn't like this does not have a soul. Cookie Monster is the one character that is just genius. Simple, fun, and lovable. Shame on anyone who wished or plotted to have him changed or removed from our world of entertainment.
i was really sad right now...
this vid really cheered me up!
lovely...thank you...
Cookie monster you rock!!!! " I can't believe you ate all those cookies".
That was just wonderful. Cookie Monster is my total favorite. Now, I don't remeber much of Seseme(sp?) Street besides Cookie and Big Bird.
What a way to start my day! Thank you so much for having Cookie Monster on your program. Without a doubt he is definately one of the most endearing characters you've interviewed.
Loved it!
that is funny :)))))
That was a great interwiew. I really liked it. :-)
LOL! Were can I download this?!
That Was Way Kool! Need to see more Seasame Street Characters soon!
hey laurie cookie was on sesame st not muppets
Brilliant! This brings back some great childhood memories. I hope you continue to do these segments.
Cookie Monster is my favorite character!! The interview was very funny. Good to know some things about Cookie that aren't touched on during the show.
Where can I find sardine ice cream?!
Oscar
Cookie Monster is my fave Sesame Street character..."C is for Cookie" never fails to put a smile to my face!!!
Suggestion: How about inviting the Count Von Count for an interview...ask him how he is contributing to putting a positive spin on vampires as well as the origins of his obsessive counting habit.
I agree we should start a new campaign to replace washington on the one dollar bill with Bert...fellow americans come election tuesday lets change this once and for all!!!
That was refresshing. We need news programs like that that are ok to watch withthe kids. I watched it with my son.
Cookie monster is so awesome!!I'm all grown up and STILL love Cookie Monster!! Rock on Cookie :)
Now I know why I always say COOOOKIEEE--It must have inplanted by THE COOKIE MONSTER as a kid.
gotta love it Can never me to old for cookie monster Cracks me up Have to do other characters from the show as well
That was grand! Two thumbs up!
I love it!! Cookie Monster you still rock!!
I love Cookie Monster! I have always loved him! What a great interveiw!
CoOKie MoNsTeR iS so CoOl!!! That was a great interviewn
I love the Cookie Monster.
A perfect example of why I'm 32 yet still hopelessly in love with Sesame Street. It may be branded as "Children's Television" but the subtle humor uplifts all generations. Cookie Monster was very entertaining but I was intrigued by the pure joy in Elizabeth's face. For a few moments she was a kid again... we can thank the late Jim Henson for that sort of magic.
Omg. I Love this!!
i take it he managed to get the microphone eaten...
I love Cookie MOnster but this interview is typical NPR. They take an exciting subject and make it boring.
cookie monster is awesome. he needs to keep eating everything!!! and not just vegetables
I love cookie monster! Thank you for this great interview. I am glad he stayed in character the whole time!
Cookie Monster is the Best! So funny!
Cookie monster is great classic and very engaging in bringing the realty of life into prespective.
I suggest you bring on the two old fellows in the teather looking on and critizing Curmit and Miss Piggy at the end of the show,you can do a great realistic interview and a variable to this concept online.
But for now, I love Cookie Munster !
I absolutely LOVE cookie monster. That was really cool.
I'm in love with Cookie Monster!
I have always loved Cookie Monster. When I was little I called him Monster Cookie. That was a cool little interveiw.
hilarious!
I still love him after all these years
Phenomenal interview! One of NPR's best! Cookie Monster is a true icon of American television (along with his friends). Thanks so much!
watched this today- woke up my 18yr old son, watched again together- then made cookies together laughing, mum and boy together. thank you!
This was really funny
How cool
That was so cool. I absolutely love cookie monster. My obession of cookies, got me the nickname Cookie Monster. I got a whole collection of Cookie Monster memorabilia from Tickle Me Cookie to my Cookie Monster tattoo.
Outacookies! <--- We're going to be seeing that word in Webster's dictionary next year.
I love Cookie Monster, always have. He is my favorite out of all the characters on Sesame Street. I love to watch my son mimic him when watching Cookie on T.V. Thanks for interviewing him.
That was the greatest thing I have ever seen. I've loved cookie monster since I was little. Kowabunga!
that was the shiiizzzzzz so funny liked that so much!!!!! to funny!
aw how cute! i loved the part where he said oscar the grouch was a dirty filthy word. how funny. goo cookie monster! <33
great
This was great. It brought back many memories. Thanks!
In a world of violence and crime, where our children see shooting and suicide bombers as part of the daily news, isn't it wonderful to laugh at the simplicity and joy these characters bring? After all these years, their message still rings true. Thanks NPR for reminding me!
Wow, did that bring back memories of growing up in the 70's. I wonder if Sammy the sea monster is available or how about the Yup-Yups?
What a way to start the day. I cant wait to show this to my niece and nephew. Thank you :-)
Thank you for a lovely interview with cookie! Did you know that in Sweden where I live, Cookie is called "Kakmonstret" or "Kakis"? He was and still is one of my favorites even now when I`m soon turning 36. I love his way of speaking. He is very good in speaking different languages! I heard him speak english for the first time today, here in Sweden he is talking swedish very good in his special way. Thank you again!
hahahahahaha that was a really good interview,can you interview elmo next time?
Oh wow! That was so funny and cute. Can I get an interview with Cookie Monster next? =D
I like Cookie Monster because I liked him. It was so fun. I liked the movie a lot. I like Cookie Monster eating cookies on a plate. Jacob age 4
bert's face on a dollar bill.... ahahaha!!
"Cowabunga!"
Cookie Monster will always be my favorite... ^_~
I really wonder how she was able to keep a straight face.
Thanks NPR, and keep up the good work.
that was glorious. i love him
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT ENTERTANEMINT NEXT WEEK WILL YOU SHOW BIG BIRD
I say Cowabonga!
I wish she would have asked Mr cookie monster some political questions. That would have been very interesting.
I just watched this with my 2 and 3 yr old boys. They LOVED it!! It was very cute! Gotta love Cookie Monster!!
this interview was HILARIOUS, but Heaven DOES exist. other than that, this interview was GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"C" is for cookie, that's good enough for me!!
Long Live COOKIE MONSTER!!
ME LOVE COOKIEMONSTER!!! HAHA
What a wonderful way to bring back so many childhood memories of Sesame Street, most importantly the cookie monster. Thank you Elizabeth!
Is there a way to add this video to myspace??
AWESOOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
has got to be the funniest thing I have seen in a looooong time i am full grown man and I had tears rolling down my cheeks from this, Outstanding BRAVO BRAVO!!!
thts fuuny!!!! i <3 cooki monster
He's a PUPPET people, come on!
Absolutely wonderful.
Made me smile this morning.
Starting the day off laughing with Cookie Monster....How much better can that get??
Very cute!!
"Me eat Cookie! OM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM!"
oh wow that was wonderful keep them coming xD
lol that was halarious.
"Cowabunga!!!"
Marvelous interview! I love Cookie Monster's answers, they're classic! Especially the dirty word answer..."Oscar the Grouch." Can you imagine it? "Oscar-the-Grouch!! I forgot my keys!"
the interview was amazing!!!!
This so SO adorable. I wanna be a snuffaluffagus too! This takes me back so much to my childhood. I loved Sesame Street.
In this day of Elmo and Zoe, it is great to see that the originals have not been lost. I have been trying to make sure my son knows about Cookie Monster. He has always been my favorite and because of this interview he can see why.
Very cute. Very funny. My 4 year old loved it.
Kinda dumb :[
Cookie Monster is by far my favorite. A distant second has always been Ocsar the Grouch (he ain't really grouchy, just misunderstood!). I would love to see him defend himself as well. Thanks again NPR for a great job!!
I had always loved watching cookie monster on Sesame Street when I was growing up!! He would always makes me smile! After watching this, it brought back memories and a big smile!!
Thank you for bringing cookie monster to us elizabeth. i watched the interview first, then asked my wife to come watch it with me. we both laughed probably the first in a long while. thank you:>) more. more! more!!
Cute!
I'm very glad to see CTW didn't cave in to critics who called for Cookie Monster to stop eating cookies (which could have resulted in a PC name change to "Occasional Low-Calorie Low-Carb Snack Treat Being").
Good to see the innocence of childhood isn't being suppressed!
A thoroughly fascinating and informative interview. Elizabeth Blair has such a knack for eliciting revealing answers out of her celebrity guests through shrewd observation and calculated questioning of the subject matter. It???s nice to see Mrs. Blair has risen above pseudo-journalism of today???s entertainment-based media, and has instead chosen to tackle the serious issues.
Loved the interview, but I really feel that Liz was really soft on Mr. Monster.As much as I truly adore Mr. Monster I think there is so much more to his personality than was covered in this interview. It is seldom that this opportunity avails itself and she let the opportunity slip through her fingers. What a shame. I'm sure there is so much more depth to Mr Monster. So it goes.
That was funny! And I thought God was going to say something like "Welcome to the land of cookies" or something.
Is good to go down memory lane..Cookie M rules forever !
This was very funny..Loved it..Love you Cookie
I like the part when cookie monter said that his dirty word was oscar the grouch.
That was too good. I loved it.
Thank you for that. It was fun. I also love cookie monster. I was even going to decorate my bathroom cookie monster.
cookie monsters a beast!!!!
OMG, that was so hilarious! I'm still laughing! At the end, in heaven, he wants God to say Cowabunga! OH MY GOD!!! ROTFLMAO!!!!
My 14 month-old daughter and I loved it!!!!
i think cookie monster is so awesome and on sesame street i only like him, elmo, and zoey. Also, we both have something in common, we both LOVE cookies!!
I like the part with the microphone at the end, and you could see the guy's shadow head at the end. :)
Very, Very amazing. this was truly amazing.
What a great way to start my Sunday morning!! I have always loved Cookie , I call my daughter cookie so I will certainly share this with her.
Thank you Jim Henson for the joy you brought into our homes with ALL your Talent..you are missed!
so cute
Cookie Monster has always been my favorite too! Sesame Street began while I was a teen of baby-sitting age, and one of my favorite kid's earliest phrases was an imitation of Cookie Monster ("cookie, cookie, nummnummmnumm"). I love the Muppets, and Cookie has remained my favorite ever since. Thank you, Elizabeth, for being bold enough to be a grown up who admits to loving Cookie Monster, and thank you for a fun and delightful interview!
Thanks for the cookie loving, the day is much brighter!
I thought this was great. very truthful and funny without being mediocre.
Best video short clip I've seen!
I absolutely love Sesame Street all around; let's see an interview with Elmo next Please! :)
He was my fave character from Sesame street when I was growing up. This interview was awesome, thanks for bringing a smile to my face.
Could this girl be anymore boring? is this supposed to be a funny interview?...... Gosh what a bunch boring questions for such a fun character !!!
Absolutely loved the interview. I grew up many years ago watching Sesame Street and always cookie monster. How wonderful is it to see they are still loved by many.
Favorite sound = OM NOM NOM NOM
I lol'd
I LOVE this segment. Please never take it down so it can cheer me up whenever I'm sad.
This made my day! And I'm 45...
Just seeing Cookie Monster reminds me of my own childhood. I can't believe how Sesame Street totally made an impact on most of our lives! Does Cookie have a MySpace Page? I totally want to be one of his friends! Hahahahah
lol!
I think that Cookie Monster needs a star on Walk of Fame in Hollywood. So does Big Bird, Elmo, Oscar and Burt & Ernie!
Great Interview! I love NPR!
...Cookie Monster has been an inspiration for most of my adult life...now I get to pass his wisdom on to my Grande Children...thanks NPR
i haven't watched sesame street in a long time, but watching this video brought back memories of watching it when i was little, and i remember laughing when i watched cookie monster, LOL and this video made me laugh too. thanks so much!
Cookie Monster is my all-time favorite character from Sesame Street. I totally enjoy this interview!!!
I love Cookie Monster... I still watch it til this day..... its addicting.... i like cookie, bert, ernie, big bird, snuffleupagus, and zoe.... Thanx a bunch
This was great! My 2 year old requested to watch it three times and insisted on kissing CM goodbye! Thanks so much for sharing it with us we loved it!
I love COOKIE MONSTER lol he is so cute
haha this was great. priceless to be correct. loved it.
Oh goodness - I did not expect this story to make me cry. But Jim Henson and his workshop were/are such wizards at transforming a bunch of faux fur and cloth into things that you easily relate too. God Bless all the muppets! (Especially Rowlf)
I used to like like Cookie Monster...now that he supports liberal blather, I'm rethinking the whole thing.
cookie monster rocks!
:).
THAT WAS A GREAT INTERVIEW I'M FROM PHILLY,PA AT SESAME PLACE SOME ONE HIT THE COOKIE MONSTER AND MY DAUGHTER WAS INTERVIEWED ON T.V IT WAS A GREAT MY GRANDAUGHTER LOVED IT KAREN FROM PHILLY
This video is hilarious. Cookie Monster has to be my all time favorite Seseame Street character.
lol.....hahahahahahahahahahahaha. I love cookie monster. that was hilarious....My son & daughter were mesmerized at this interview...they love him too.
Me love coooookkkiiieeeeee!! That was cute, cookie has always been my favorite Sesame St. character
Ha ha ha! Cookie monster is so funny! My sister says she likes the part where he says his least fav word is out-of-cookies!!
That was the funniest thing I have seen anywhere. I was laughing so hard that my eyes started to tear up. I am still laughing as I type this.
Opthamologist...that alone was hilarious!
That was hilarious!! I know NPR reports the news of the day across the planet-good, bad and ugly, but could Ms Blair interview the two old men of Sesame Street next? I'd love to hear their answers to the Proust Questionnaire!
I love cookie monster!! He is awesome!!
oh man i love CM i play a cookie monster with my son with my hand and i tickle him to tears he loves it
This is Crazy I love It thank u
I want to put this with mahnamahna on my myspace page, cooooooooooooooookie! And I'm sure my grandson will love it!
I felt six years old again, thank you!
Absolutely positively warm responses from what I read in the comments. I think there is an interesting social aspect to this.
This was an absolute gem to come across as I signed onto my Yahoo home page. I've already posted the link in a bulletin to my friends on MySpace. The hysterical part was the type of profession Mr. Monster would not perform. I work for an optical company and I was rolf'g. Thank for you for providing us with an insightful and enjoyable interview.
By the way, how much did you charge the producers of Sesame Street for the replacement???
Ciao!
haha this is great!!!
loven it!
THAT WAS SO GREEEAT! AMAZING HOW WE CAN BE IN OUR 30'S, YET NEVER CEASE TO BE AMAZED BY SESAME STREET GANG!
THANKS I ENJOYED THAT PIECE..
CYNTHIA 36 YEARS OLD!!!LOL
ABSOLUTELY DELIGTHFUL! MY INNER CHILD IS GLOWING WITH MEMORIES OF FULFILLED DREAMS!
(smack) Cooooookie! lol
i had to hit re-play on this one.
Bazzers, the cookie does make the world better. so if you want a smile on your face then its not to late for COOKIE 2008! :p
the best interview im seen in years i love the cookie monster
Thanks a heck (replace with 4 letter word of your choice) for not bothering to print the story, that wasted 5 minutes of my day waiting for the page to load for nothing.Either due to high cost or just plain not being available in their area, not everybody has a highspeed connection. Video is a complete waste of time for me, you could at least list it as a video so people in my position can ignore it.
Loved it! Thanks for the smile.
That was awesome cookie monster rocks
This is one of the funniest interview i've ever seen. Cookie Monster is really funny. My baby sister loves cookie monster, it's her favorite. Can you interview other characters from Sesame Street? My little sister would be so happy watching that. Sesame Street is her favorite t.v. show. thanks..................................
HAHAHA..."Me Draw the line at sardine ice cream" Great line from Cookie Monster.
aaawhhh hes sooo cute! totally made my day!!! gotta but this on bebo,piczo,facebook,aimpages!!!
That was Crazily Magnificent. I enjoyed that so much. Cookie Monster was always my favorite growing up and I still love him. I laughed so hard, tears flowed down my face. Thank-you for sharing something that can change a person's day around.
What a wonderful interview, NPR!
It's comforting to know that in a world of ever-changing fads and fleeting interests, the Muppets are timeless. Your interview made in laugh out loud - a wonderful way to begin the day!
I love the way "Cookie" has always unapologetic embraced his foibles.
Lucky Elizabeth - what a privilege this must've been for her!
Done the old fashion way CLEAN AND FUN. Thank You for the interview I really enjoyed it.
cowabunga! i love you Cookie Monster!
Great interview, in a time where we have so many negative stories on TV it always brings a tear of happiness to se something so sweet and innocent. We should learn from cookie monster and just have fun in life. Thank you cookie!
mi gustar mucho cookie monster please make more enterviews like this and don't run out of cookies because broccoli are no substitute of cookies. muchas gracias

Thank you for bringing in Cookie Monster for an interview. Sure brought back nice childhood memories. He is one of my favorite characters in Sesame Street.

It was a very delightful and refreshing interview. Growing up watching Seaseme Street and the muppets, one of my favorite characters was and still is cookie monster. These wonderful shows are becoming an antique (per say) for our day in time. Thanks NPR.
What a day-brightener! In this age of daily tragedies and sad news, it certainly uplifting to see an interview with a beloved childhood friend. Thanks, NPR!
wow i love cookie monster that was hilariuos
Cookie Monster ROCKS!!!
Cookie Monster is so cute! I'm very happy that we got to learn more about his character!! Thank you NPR!
I just want to say Thankyou!!! Today is my 30th birthday, and that just seriously put a smile on my face. I remember watching sesame street as a kid, but that was just funny. Pure clean fun
Cookie cookie cookie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
COOKIE MONSTE ROX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AMOR Y PAZ
TRAPO
i just love cookie monster.
i got kind of scared when they asked him what his favorite curse word was but it was funny when his was 'oscar the grouch'..hilarious.
my last name is "Cook" and while i was serving in the army my 1SGT called me "Cookie Monster" everyone else started calling me "Cookie" and even now my Girl Friend calls me "Cookie Monster". We play around and i try to talk like him while we do it. I have LOVED the Blue guy since i was a little boy and find it an honor to be titled with his name. thank you for the intervew and i am grad he doesn't have a favorite curse word... i think it would kill my childhood love for him if he had one. i have all ways wanted to meat Frank Oz, David Rudman and (because he took over some of Oz's work when Frank left) Eric Jacobson. thanks again.
Totally delightful! Great rapport between Ms. Blair and Cookie Monster. This really brings out wonderful memories sitting with my little children, many years ago! My most memorable episode had Candace Bergen with Cookie as C is also for Candace.
Thanks NPR for the memories.

Cookie is my childhood favorite and my daughters now love him, too! As an adult, I get a laugh out of the BIG vocabulary he randomly uses! I wish I had been able to do this interview! Thanks!
Great Video!!! Very Funny. Is this on You Tube?
I agree with Fiona. I want to know more about Oscar!
I really miss being a kid, watching Sesame Street. Those were better times for the whole world.
Hey! I truly loved it. Made me laugh a lot! Thanks
Awesome!!! Gotta love the Cookie Monster:)
pure genius
cookie monster is the man!damn he funny.
I love cookie monster... but my favorite is OSCAR THE GROUCH!!!
what was his curse word im just saying
but it was nice to see the cmst
I love cookie monster! He was one of my favorite Sesame Street characters.
Loved it! Cookie Monster is the man..uh, monster. Thank you.
That was so cute and refreshing in comparison to all the serious interviews we've been being subjected to lately!!
hilarious, i love the cookie monster!!!
This was a very informative interview. I am so glad he isn't eating carrots all the time like they seem to be pushing on SS these days. I also think Bert would look good on a bank note. He is more interesting and better spoken then most of the other "stars"
This made my day. He was my favorite as a kid.
That was very Funny my Daughter loves him so much~
COOKIE MONSTER RAWKS!!!
That is so cute, i loved it.
cookie monster is my all time favorite sesame street character :]
That was so cute! Even after I am all grown up, Cookie Monster can bring a smile to my face. Thanks for this!
This was a very cute interview. It made me laugh several times. Cookie Monster was very funny!!
I used to wach Sesame Street and this is so cute for Cookie Monster to be interviewed! :-)
Thumbs up! Great interiew. My grandson and I very much enjoyed the show. Cookie monster is the best. We love cookies.
I luv the cookie monster
That was the best interview ever.Wow...how much have us adults grown up and forgot the pleasure of a muppet. We gotta reclaim the kid in ourselves!!!
LOVED IT!!! How can i put this on my site of myspace?
C is for cookie that's good enough for me!!!
That is too funny!
The Menomenah song wasn't sesame street. It was the muppet show.
How refreshing to find something non- offensive and delightful to watch for a change.
I loved it, COOKIE MONSTER WE LOVE YOU!!!! What a great interview.
cookie monster for president !!! he's got more to offer the u.s.a. than any of the current candidates !!! yea !!!
Dude, that brought me back to the good-old days of the 70's when I used to watch Sesame Street as a young Kiddo! Thank you so much! Bert was always my farourite, but the Cookie Monster rocks, too! Let's get back to simplicity...Cookie Monster for President and Grover for Vice President! Woo-Hoo!
"C" is for "Cookie"; "Rubber Duckie, Your the One"; ad infinitum...
Good times...good times...
Thank you for the walk down memory lane. This is the cookie Monster I remember from my childhood. I was able to put this on my Facebook profile.
I think Sesame Street is a national treasure for all generations. I watched as a kid and my kids watched it. I hope all me decendants get the chance. NPR, you have done a wonderful thing for muppets everywhere.
My Favorite "Cookie Monster", thanks for the laugh. It was fun!
"C" IS FOR COOKIE THATS GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME. "C" IS FOR COOKIE THATS GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME "C" IS FOR COOKIE THATS GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME OOOOOH COOKIE COOKIE COOKIE STARTS WITH "C"
Best interview in history!
THANK YOU NPR!!! Please make sure corporate reads the comments made by the public - an interview like this sends us a light in amidst the darkness of events caused by dehumanizing politics and the institutionalized cruelty we face everyday.
Wow, what a complete and utter waste of my time!! He didn't break anything at all. The original post is very misleading. At least break.com has funny stuff. This was really stupid!!
COWABUNGA is the perfect thing to say when meeting one's personal divinity. That will be my new meditation mantra. I feel closer to God already. Thanks.
That was amazing!
C is for COokie its good enough for me!What a GREAT interview!!!! LOVE COOKIE MONSTER!!!
HAHAH! i am 16 yrs old and i still love this dude!!!
That was HILARIOUS! You should really interview Patrick or SpongeBob from "SpongeBob Squarepants" Ms.Blair.
is there any way to put this video on a blog ?
I LOVE THE COOKIE MONSTER!
i think its a rather sad commentary on the world when someone decided to change his dietary habits,only because they felt that he might be setting a bad example for children and the child in us all.this would be like popeye without his spinich .why cant you leave well enough alone.im not to currently happy with this change.youve really done us all an injustice
Thank you sooooooo much. I really needed that!
I hart the cookie monster....he is my fav muppet!!!!!!!!!
From the interview, it sounds as if food choices for Cookie Monster are "All things Considered," except Sardine Ice Cream. This is a classic example of why npr is my favorite.
This made me laugh and cry at the same time. I guess you can never be too old to love Cookie Monster. I am glad he is still eating cookies.
So funny!I loved this intervew!
i love this soooooo funny
whoa i love cookie monster he is super cool
what a wonderful segment....... found this quite by accident- and I haven't quit smiling yet......... Cooooookie. me want more cookies.
Very cool. Cookie Monster keeps it real, and this was funny.
"A snuffleluffagous...me think it would be great to be big and have a big...snuffle thing,"
Aww...that made my weekend!
This was great! I am so relieved because I heard rumors that Cookie Monster was no longer COOKIE MONSTER but veggie Monster and that made me very sad. But this confirms that he now has a more well balanced diet.
COWABUNGA! that was excellent.
thats funny
To CUTE! I LOVE Cookie Monster!
i want this. that was so funny!!!!!!
I look back on characters from my youth and it makes me a little sad that I don't get to visit with them anymore.. I loved the interview And it was good to hear this most loved of my childhood memories again
aww hes soo cute.!
This has just made my week.!
The cutest thing ive seen yet.!
Hahahahaha, you are so lucky, you get to see cookie monster, my favorite word is COOKIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! too.
I love his dirty word. Cookie monster is one of my child hood heros mainly because he could eat cookies all day and i couldn't. Thank you for a wonderful interview the world needed this.
Omg!!! i love cookie monster!!!! he is so awsome!!!! i was actualy rolling on the floor laughing and my brother (Bryan)was laughing so hard that he was crying!!!!
My good, Cookie is a junkie
i love cookie monster.the end is funny
That was GREAT. Cookie Monster has always been my favorite. Working for/on Sesame Street has got to be one of the best jobs ever. That would be a dream come true for me.
I LOVED Cookie Monster growing up! Great interview!
That was an enjoyable interview, except for the curse word question. Elizabeth should have known better than to ask a beloved children's character such a question. She should reserve a question like that for Triumph the Insult Comic Dog.
That was so funny! I love his response to the question about what he'd like to hear God say when he arrived in Heaven: "Cowabunga!" Cookie Monster, you are just too cute!
This was great. I'm embarrassed to say that when I was little I was afraid of Cookie Monster. When he would come on Sesame Street, I would go run hide behind my dad's recliner and peek out. Keep up the good work NPR!!!!
Love Cookie Monster, even when he eats his veggies! In the midst of this messed up world, Thank You for a fun, make you smile interview!
COWABUNGA!! hahaha.. hilarious..??

That was just plain awsome. I've always loved Cookie monster and this just made me laugh my head of seriously. I really enjoyed waching it.
I love this interview.Cookie Monster is my all time favorite.Thanks for the laugh.
Amazing interview. I have a 14month old son who has opened my eyes to my childhood and re-opened the doors to Sesame Street and whole gang bringing nothing but amazing memories. NPR is amazing!
you rock cookie monster
"NEVER EVER" too old for Sesame Street
and "Cowabunga" fabulous
I agree with everyone. That was a nice fresh break from all the usual, sensational interviews we see today. I felt 5 years old again.
I Love cookie monster and so so my daughter she would not let me finish changing her clothes untill after the vid.

This was a wonderful interview, I watched many hours of SesameStreet growing up, and it's been a long time since I saw Cookie Monster, I think he's many peoples favorite. Thanks for the smile.

I love Cookie Monster !!! we need this on U tube! congrats on a GREAT interview! this was great!
Outtacookies - My new least favorite word.

How cute!! I looove cookie monster
Cookie Monster is awesome!
Very cute :P Thank you for that interview; we all need to laugh!!!
Ever since I was a kid I have loved Sesame Street and Cookie Monster. I work with kids now so I get to see the characters still. This was a great interview. Reminds me of the song I sang in college, "C is for cookie, that's good enough for me."
What a wonderful flashback for a 38 year old man. I was back in front of my parents TV in pajamas loving the Cookie Monster. Thank you for a great interview.
This brightened my whole day. I had to share it with my son who is now grown and he loved it too.
ok cookie monster is like my 2nd fav seasane street charactor. and my one of my first words was "cookie" so cookie monster is like an idol to me. loved the video and i wonder if i can put this on Myspace! that would be like so cool
awww i thought it was so cute! i even had to show my son
THAT WAS HILLARIOUS!!!
"60 minutes" dreams it could have hard-hitting, revealing interviews like this. great stuff!
Zach - just google "manamana" even though that's not the right spelling and you'll see links to the video on youtube.
I loved it! Cookie Monster is hilarious!
COOKIE MONSTER is great!!
Pusillanimous is MY least favorite word too, but I never had the courage to tell anyone!! Wow, thanks Cookie Monster for helping me quash my cowardly spirit!
ha! sooo cute gootta love that cookie
Thank goodness that I have had three children spread apart because it gave me an excuse to watch Seasame Street for years. I agree that Cookie Monster is the best because of his love of the moment and his ability to take joy from whatever is in front of him. I will be smiling and singing C is for cookie the rest of the day...thanks!
Cooooookieeeee!
That interview was wonderful. Cookie Monster Rocks!
pusillanimous? cookie monster is a muppet of doubtless genius!
CCOOOOOOOKKKKKIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEs!!!!!!!!!
Cookie Monster is the best!!! Thank you, NPR.
I have only one thing to say...we need more of these types of interviews. Forget those empty celebrities....muppets rule.
I'm 63. The Muppets were - and still are - some of the most inspired personalities ever created. I have loved them since I saw the very first ones on Johnny Carson. CM rocks! Thanx.
Best interview of the century! I love Cooke Monster.
One word: mostincredible. it counts for me too, right?
Uh hmm...
Ms. Blair: If you were reincarnated as some other plant or animal what would it be?
Cookie Monster: a Snuffalopogus
Ms. Blair: why?
Cookie Monster: me think that it would great to big, with a big snuffle thing, don't you think that would be fun?
Blair: yes
Oh, Ms. Blair! You didn't go there, did you? and I'm still not all that convinced with the Bert and Ernie thing. But here, the suggestion is rather obvious.
I'm so glad to hear from Cookie Monster again after thirty years out of touch. He hasn't changed a bit.
COOOKEEE!
Of course he's a Grouch! He's lives in fricken' trashcan!
The interview made a lot of Soldiers laugh in Afghanistan...thanks a lot!!!
Adorable! Cookie Monster is fabulous and wonderfully outrageous. I love how Elizabeth looks so excited to interview him and at the same time as though she's indulging a favorite nephew. Thanks for such an entertaining show!!
PS> My girls kept saying "More cookies, give him more cookies!" - so I replayed that part a few times.
thanks for the interview with cookie monster! it was sublime ^,^)/
- love all the way from singapore
i am so fond of cookie monster!that was completely hilarious!i love everyone in sesame street! kids should watch more of these shows than do video games!
Awwww! This is so sweet! ^_^
loads of cuteness! heart it ;)
thanks for posting this
As a 35-year old male who watched 'Seseame Street' as a young kid, I loved this.
As a vegan, I really liked the fact that NPR's attempt to imply Brocili (sp?) is gross (like that PG term) and Cookie Monster demonstrated it is real good.
I love the cookie monster. It was so funnie too see my favorit monster on npr. :)
I love Cookie Monster too!
I have always loved Cookie Monster!! He's the SS character that I identify the most with, I'll eat just about anything too! LOL! Thanks for doing this interview!
I always loved cookie monster, but personally he is too addicted to those cookies. I hate how he rags on Oscar the Grouch saying he deserves sardine ice cream and that he is his favorite curse word. I think that teaches kids to hate poor people as if they do not deserve anything that is good. And having him eat the headphones and the microphone was just stupid.
Thanks a million. My family I have been watching this several times. It is hilarious and makes to great pick-me-up. Other poster are right - you're never too old for Sesame Street.
Me love Cookie Monster interview! Almost good as cookie!
I'm 27 yrs old and it brought a huge smile on my face, I grew up with Sesame Street and have fond memories, thank you NPR for making my day!
awww i want him as a pet ^_^
Hi, The interview was really amazing, however I have one huge question that I would love to know.
Is someone inside cookie monster? If not how do all of the hand and finger movements work?
So cool and cute!
haha he's so cute
love cookie monster =D
whats your favorite cookie??
Okay, that's the second time I've ended up wheezing and gasping from laughing so hard at one of your shows (the last was "Concealed Weapons: Eels second set of teeth"). My entire family got a good laugh out of that. NOM NOM NOM NOM.
People: he said Oscar the grouch is a *dirty word* not a *curse word* because - guess what? Oscar lives IN A TRASH CAN! It's DIRTY in there! You gotta think like a 4 year old to understand this stuff. And giving him the sardine ice cream is the same - have you ever seen the show? Oscar loves that kind of stuff! He wants to give it to Oscar because he knows it would make him happy.
This segment is all about analyzing characters so you gotta get it right. :^)
I used to have the cookie monster hand puppet that came with cardboard cookies that he could eat. I wish I still had it to share with my own kids.Rock on CM! <3 Sesame Street.
-Diane
This was AWESOME! Can they just make this a regular series where they interview all the Sesame Street and Muppet Show characters? I'd watch it!
This is amazing. The cookie monster is amazing. I love this.
This video never fail to make me smile.
I love Cookie Monster!
This is hilarious!!!!
I laughed so hard I cried!!!!
I loved it. Reminded me of my kids when they were very young and loved to watch Sesame Street. Thank you
cookie monster is very funny:)
don't be an oscar the grunch what cookie monster
Oh, how I loved this clip! In the late 70s (very early adulthood) I had a 68 Camaro, my first car. I had a Cookie Monster doll that rode with me. Yes, people looked askance when they got in the car, but he was MY Cookie Monster! I was just wondering where that doll ended up. I think I gave it to my very young nephew....
omg this is so funny! yes, i have a fonness for cookies monster too.
"COWABUNGA"!!!!!!
I LOVE THE COOKIE MONSTER!!!!! GREAT VIDEO !!WEEEEEEEE!! COOKIES!!!!!!!!!
