Wodehouse was the quintessential butler to [[Lady Agatha]] in a [[Mysterious Theater]] segment on ''[[Sesame Street]]'' in the early 1990s. He introduced visitors [[Sherlock Hemlock]] and his dog [[Watson]] to help find Agatha and her husband Rodney Knocklee's missing cat. When Watson has just about solved the case (the cat is hiding under the mat), Wodehouse warns not to look underneath, the reason: the cat was terrified of Watson and was hiding there.
