It’s just you that’s evil. Not Elmo, not anyone else.
Yes, but that guy was intelligent and funny. Elmo… isn’t.
You guys don’t like Wonder Pets? How can any show that boasts the line, “Baby chimp! Take the banana out of your ear!” be bad?
I heart Wonder Pets. I encouraged my daughter to watch it far past the preschool stage it’s appropriate for, 'cause we’d have so much fun singing along.
And I gotta say, there’s nothing more motivating for cleaning up the bedroom than a rousing rendition of, “What’s gonna work? TEAMWORK!” 
(Well, OK, that evil purple dinosaur has a good clean up song, too, but…ick.)
