Talk:Mr. Snuffleupagus

message: Without directly addressing if Snuffy is real or not, Mr. Rogers visits with Big Bird to eplain the difference between imaginary and real. This seems quite relevant to the article and perhaps should be included? Samatva (talk) 18:04, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
thread_title: Mr. Rogers explains

message: This article needs a couple subjects developed. 1) Personality and behavior.  I seem to remember him as something of an Eeyore, only maybe less in need of anti-depressants.  I think there was some funny dance he'd do.  Eeyore would never dance.  I think he also played baseball, swinging the bat with his trunk.  2) Puppetry.  How is the character brought to life?  A puppeteer in the suit for the front legs and one for the back legs?  Who does the voice, who does the face, etc, etc.  This information should be out there somewhere.

message: Isn't Snuffy Jewish?
: Mr Hooper was, and Baby Bear is, but no, he's Hawaiian and has never practiced any sort of religion on the show.  --  user:zanimum
I always figured he'd be Greek. -- Bobak 21:13, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: If you believe Howard Beale, the tube is both gospel and the most awesome goddamned force in the whole godless world. Thus, every character on the show practices through preaching every time they teach you something. And every time we learn something from these street preachers, we're observing that religion. Telly Monster is essentially us looking back in the mirror. InedibleHulk (talk) 03:35, 6 July 2016 (UTC)

thread_title: Redirect from Suffleupagus

message: I just reverted the changes to remove a paragraph regarding the abuse context of the section on the goodbye episode.  My own feeling is that it is encyclopedic, however, since it has been removed and reverted several times, I wanted to start a discussion about it.  The paragraph in question is 
:The Children's Television Workshop decided on this storyline largely after high-profile (and sometimes, graphic) stories on pedophilia and sexual abuse of children on shows such as 60 Minutes and 20/20. Concerns were raised that a child may be reluctant to tell an adult that he/she had been sexually abused, especially because he/she may not be believed because of their age.
Thoughts, comments or concerns? --Hansnesse 05:30, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Context of the Goodbye episode 

message: The author appears to have confused two episodes: the one in which Big Bird is ordered to say "goodbye" to Snuffy, and the one where the human cast finally sees him. The latter unfolded by way of an elaborate plan, and Big Bird was not present when the adults finally laid eyes on Snuffy. Brithgob 04:11, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed.  I stopped watching the program regularly myself shortly before Snuffy was revealed to the adults, but after Gordon, Linda, and Maria decided to believe Big Bird despite the lack of evidence.  However, I do recall reading about it several times.  I believe Big Bird set up a special code word ("food") he could yell when Snuffy was in the area that would cause the adults to come running to see.  We need to find some more authoritative reference to get this right.  (I believe Sesame Street magazine had an article on it in the parents' section around the time of the event, but it may be tricky to find copies of it.)  Powers 16:09, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Inaccuracies 

message: I removed a "trivia" item from the list, since it seemed to be unencyclopedic, relative to the article content:
:* According to a Dave Chappelle comedy routine, Snuffy is Sesame Street's resident smackhead.
It seems to me that being the subject of a comedy routine is not really a item of trivia.  Thoughts? --TeaDrinker 04:45, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Aloysius? 

message: In the 1985 Follow that Bird movie, the fact that Mr. Snuffleupagus sends a physical postcard and that a postman physically appears at the door, is also a proof (in the Sesame Street universe) that Mr. Snuffleupagus is not an imaginary friend at that point. Unless Big Bird sent the postcard to himself, that is. Shouldn't this reference be in the article? Considering that the running joke ends in the show after this movie is released.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by PedroPalhoto (talk • contribs) 15:31, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
