The Streets of Sesame


 Found some old notes I took down for a story idea I had years ago about a noir story starring Sherlock Hemlock as he goes on the job to solve a murder mystery of a muppet on Sesame street. 

In it, Bert and Ernie are drug dealers, Cookie monster is an addict (there's crack in the cookies) and there's a gang war with Oscar and Big Bird on both ends of the war. Oscar runs the underground where Big Bird owns the street. 

Kemit is the new reporter covering the downfall of this once friendly neighbor and in the end the killer turns out to be a crazed Count, who ran out of things to count, went insane and started sucking the cotton out of muppets to count his kills like some deranged serial killer. 

Pretty dark I know, but it would've had funny stuff in it too. Either way, it would've been fun to see!
