    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Harland Williams was originally cast as Huxley. After the initial table read, the unimpressed studio executives ordered that he be replaced, leading to Mandy Patinkin being cast instead.
    • Goofs
      Whenever Huxley is shown from the front, he appears to be wearing his hair slicked back (which is Mandy Patinkin's signature haircut.) However, from every other angle, he is actually wearing it parted down the middle.
    • Quotes
      • Gordon: [in jail] Hey! Can we get some water in here?
      • [gets a bucketful of water in the face]
      • Gordon: Thanks.
    • Crazy credits
      At the end of the movie, Bert and Ernie are on the screen. The credits start and Bert says "Ooh, credits! I want to see who did the catering."
    • Alternate versions
      The Sing & Play VHS and DVD, released in 2002, features classic Sesame Street songs and three songs from the movie, and includes "Elmo's World: Balls" as a bonus feature.
