Talk:Sesame Street Gangsters

From Muppet Wiki

Okay, I'm bored.

What's your thought about adding the letter W? The one who was wanted in for robbery in the Dragnet spoof and escaped from Sergeant Thursday. Sure, he was only in one skit, but so were all the characters in the "three knocks" skit. --Dave Splurge 19:37, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

He could be a footnote, but otherwise I don't think he fits. The others are designed to suggest "gangster/crook," with secret passwords, shady dealings, etc. The W is wanted for unknown reasons, and that's all we know, plus he works solo (as far as we know). He could be a chronic jaywalker rather than a gangster. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 20:02, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Point taken. Although I had thought that in the beginning of the Dragnet spoof, it was possibly alluded to that the letter was wanted for robbery. Even if that's what was intended for the sketch, it probably is too vague to list him/it as a gangster. --Dave Splurge 17:50, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
