Catalogue information
Oscar the Grouch or Oscar the Grouch Monster (English: Oscar the Grouch) is a green creature that lives in a garbage can. Oscar is a Muppet who can be seen in the children's program Sesame Street. He is distinguished by his usually less sunny temper and attitude towards other Sesame Street residents and a penchant for all things ugly and dirty. Oscar has a few things in his trash can, including a tame worm. His colleague Erica can also be seen from time to time. Elmo, Teevee Monster and other Muppets repeatedly come in vain to ask for his sympathy or cooperation. In the Dutch Sesame Street, when the long word 'grouch monster' does not fit in the original mouth movements, Oscar is sometimes called a 'grumpy'. Nurks is a, rather obnoxious, character in Nicolaas Beets' collection of short stories Camera Obscura. (Source wiki)
