The King And I

"Monsterpiece Theatre" skit hosted by
Cookie Monster (Frank Oz) as Alistair Cookie
and starring Grover (Frank Oz)

parody of The King And I

Alistair: Good evening. Alistair Cookie here. Welcome to "Monsterpiece Theatre".

Tonight me present to you "The King and I". It about a king, and the letter I.

That where they get the title from. Very good title.

And now! Sit back and enjoy "The King and I".

(Cut to a palace room when Grover is king and a letter I approaches him)

Grover: Oh, you lower-case letter I. You are so cute with your little dot.

And you begin words I love like igloo, ink, ice cream and so on etc, etc, etc.

And because of this, your loveable and cute king wishes to dance with you.

(Music starts and Grover wraps his arms around the letter I and they dance up a storm.)

Yes! Yes! Do it!

(Cut to Alistair's room)

Alistair: And so end "The King and I". Short but so what? This Alistair Cookie saying bye-bye from "Monsterpiece Theatre".
