Elmo Angler Fish

Elmo appeared as a deep sea angler fish in the Elmo's World episode "Fish." 
The script originally called for Elmo to morph into an electric eel and use his electric charge to light up underwater. However, during pre-production it was realized that the charge from an electric eel doesn't actually generate light. Michael Schupbach suggested the idea of using an angler fish to executive producer Arlene Sherman. 
Fred Buchholz built the light on the angler fish's forehead to actually light up on cue; however, a post-production effect was used in the final cut rather than the working light.
