America's favorite slave to baked goods, Cookie Monster, is the star of this very funny collection of comic sketches culled from the insatiable Muppet's tenure on Sesame Street. From the opening scene--in which the wild-eyed Cookie yields to pure impulse and devours a cookbook (rather than wait for a pastry recipe to be fully realized in his kitchen)--the longtime Children's Television Workshop character never fails to entertain with his charming anarchy. Also on the program are classic Sesame Street songs "C Is for Cookie" (and its spinoff, "C Drives Me Crazy," featuring a guest appearance by the Fine Young Cannibals), "If Moon Were a Cookie," and the touching "What Is Friend?" The high point, however, is the gravel-voiced Cookie's scene with actress Annette Bening, who helps him sort out the difference between a "Cookie Here and There." Wonderful stuff for all ages. --Tom Keogh

- Kids love Cookie Monster
We got this DVD for my 5 year old son's birthday. He is developmentally delayed and doesn't always have a long attention span for movies/video. Both he and his 19 month old brother love this one. It has a nice balance of song and talking. My kids sing along with the songs, and laugh out loud at Cookie Monster's impatience to get those cookies.Sure, the character's got a problem with subject pronouns, but his vocabulary is otherwise great, and he's so pure in his commitment to cookies. I wish I ... Read More
Rating: - Delicious!
Classic vignette scripting of many great Cookie Monster skits into an excellent recipe for fun! Join Cookie as he em-bakes upon a new career that's perfect for him: Cookie Baker! A variety of songs that includes the classic 'C is for Cookie' and even Annette Bening dropping in 'here and there' made this a must-see-over-and-over-again for my little boy. Classic Sesame Street that hasn't been equalled since the passing of Jim Henson, this is ultimate fun for thirty minutes or so.
Rating: - Vocals kind of turn me off.
Opethian cookie monster vocals are simply silly. When you can sing as well as he can then why not just stick to regular. I cringe when I hear that. I would rather listen to the original Cookie Monster.

- Good, but too short
Cookie Monster is always fun and most of the content of this DVD is ok, but a small part of it seems as fill-in... Too bad the DVD is too short.
