Who was your favorite comedian who interacted with Oscar the Grouch?


My favorite comedienne who interacted with Oscar was Teri Garr from Tootsie, Young Frankenstein and Close Encounters of the Third Kind who was one of his students in the New School for Grouch Research episode.

I don't remember any except Madaline Kahn who I didn't even know about at the time. I hated her in the episode though cause she played a witch who magically cleaned out Oscar's trashcan and then turned his pet worm Slimey into an elephant. I hated that! And Slimey was an elephant in every episode after that for a long time. I don't know whose idea it was to do that but frankly I wouldn't have very kind words to say to them about it.

I know he's not a comedian, but I liked it when Johnny Cash interacted with Oscar.

What other comedians besides Teri Garr, Madeline Kahn etc. do any of you think should have interacted with Oscar?

I guess George Carlin would've been a good comedian to interact with Oscar. After all, he narrated Thomas The Tank Engine. As far as I know, he was never on Sesame Street.
