The Muppets take Manhattan, sort of

Dave on 7th notes that a crew is filming something with a Muppet Murray Monster now in Tompkins Square Park near the dog run.


One dog owner told us that the crew members were grumbling about so many dogs barking.

Earlier, a very special EV Grieve correspondent noted that the poor Muppet Murray Monster had seemingly been impaled...


And what Muppet is this? Elmo's Crusty Cousin? Thanks to a reader... it's Murray Monster.

    Grieve, you may have inadvertently created a euphemism by putting rusty and muppet in the same sentence.

    I take that back, a quick google search just showed me that's an old euphemism.

    Sesame Street was also filming in Washington Square Park today. They were asking random people to play different characters ("stubborn" or "sympathetic") but I didn't see any of the puppets!
