    New elmo sounds like it has a full mouth. Wokeness killed Elmo.

    Didn’t Elmo used to be a darker red? He’s pinker than I remember.

      The video probably has a weird color grade. Maybe related to the white void too.

      It’s just the bright lighting.

    At the age of 27, one of my favourite movies probably shouldn’t be Elmo in Grouchland, but it is.
    I’ve had the soundtrack replaying in my head for days now.
    Love you Elmo!

      Well when two people love each other-😂

      Sounds like a question you should ask Elmo’s parents, however….

      It’s probably best to first ask YOUR parents. If they don’t know, THEY should ask Elmo’s parents, then get back to you.

      It never is a big deal until someone like you points it out lol now there’s going to be an argument

    • graeme homer

      May 15, 2023 at 3:28 pm

      @zh0re it was a joke. If anyone starts a fight or argument are to be ignore. Maybe consider it as a service that you’ll be able to find people to ignore.
