Grizzy

Grizzy is a freckled Grouch child who appears in The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland. After Huxley almost steals her favorite doll, Soggypants Sandy, Grizzy reluctantly agrees to help Elmo. She also appeared in the tie-in video, The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland: Sing and Play. Tyco released a small talking plush Grizzy.
The production notes for the film described Grizzy as a girl who "has the mind of a crabby Peppermint Patty and is trapped in the body of Shirley Temple." The character was originally going to be named Grizzabella.Stephan Rotondaro on Instagram
There was discussion of integrating Grizzy into the actual Sesame Street show proper following the film's production, but the show producers were informed that as the character was created for a movie and not the show, Columbia Pictures had an ownership stake in the character.Communication between Philo & Gunge and Craig Shemin
