- Hey I'm Common and first of all, I love Sesame Street.

When I think about the characters that influenced me,

I love Ernie and Bert and they were just so unique,

so I love them.

I also love Grover 'cause Grover just was funny, funny,

but my favorite character, to be honest,

was the Cookie Monster.

Happy 50th anniversary, Sesame Street.
