Ernie's favorite numbers

I'm not sure where to put this information in the paragraph as it's written now, but on This Way to Sesame Street Ernie remarks that his favorite number has changed from 2 to 7; that's why he pesters Bert about wanting to see the Song of Seven clip. Does anyone else think that's worth adding? -- Ingeborg 22:48, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Perhaps. I think it's funny that Ernie's favorite number changed from 2 to 7 in the sneak preview special, but then changed back to 2 by the time of the first episode. --Minor muppetz 23:39, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

I think it is as interesting and relevant as any of the other "favorite number" references we have listed. I think it's not only funny that Ernie's favorite number changed over time, but that he even has a specific favorite number to begin with. -- Brad D. (talk) 00:47, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Personally I don't think Ernie's favorite number is of any interest at all. Clearly it changed in the scripts dependant upon what number was being featured. I can't see a list of every number that Ernie has ever been fond of as adding anything to the article. —Scott (talk) 22:02, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Live-hand info?

Query: Do we really need that third paragraph about how a live-hand is operated, especially considering the fact that a link to the live-hand page is provided early on? Also, I don't think I've seen puppet type mentioned on any other character page except for the Sesame Street Anything Muppet characters. Is that something we should be including on every character page, with a link to the page concerning each respective puppet type? Or maybe something we should include in the performer box to make it more of a quick info box? Chunk 14:11, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

I think it's okay here, considering Ernie's importance. I wouldn't want a paragraph like that on most pages, but this page might attract readers who aren't familiar with how live-hand Muppets are performed. -- Danny (talk) 12:16, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Attention

I feel like there's a lot more to be said about Ernie, considering how major he is. We've got lots of information about Ernie all over the wiki, especially in Ernie and Bert Sketches. It would be great if somebody could add stuff about some significant sketches here, and maybe talk a little bit about how the character's changed over the years. -- Danny (talk) 23:40, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
