Few things have made me as happy as the following clip — which is nowhere near new, but still damned funny. Peanut butter and jelly on lightly toasted bread. Radiant heating on cold piggies on a winter night. Lynda Carter turning into Wonder Woman. But this may be my favorite thing of the month:
Easy claim, I know, as the month is mere hours old, but these outtakes from a charity-promoting AP interview are hysterical. I do love it so when real people “forget” that they’re talking to a hand puppet. It’s almost enough for me to want a Muppet-hosted talk show.

that clip is months old. it’s already made its rounds. but hilarious still? yes.
Sweet Jeebus, that is awesome.
It’s still funny…but yeah, I thought it was posted here months ago.
This has been out for a long time but is always worth a repost. Ricky Gervais’ giggle should be declared a British national treasure. It is infectious.
The guy who plays Elmo never gets enough credit for his brilliant ad-libs. I’ve seen him do live spots from Martha Stewart to the Frugal Gourmet even from 15+ years ago. Elmo always kills!
OMG I freaking love Elmo (and Ricky G of course but Elmo more).
This was so funny.
This clip brings a smile to my face every time I see it.
My kids hated this.
Ricky Gervais has the greatest laugh ever.
I don’t even know why, but “You’re not supposed to touch Elmo” cracks me up everytime.
Genius idea with the muppet fronted talk show. Who do we need to talk to to make this happen?! I would watch religiously.
I seem to remember that the original clip is longer (which of course, you can tell this one is edited)
