I have a love/hate relationship with Elmo. He was okay as a side character but doesn't really work well on his own. Unfortunately, over the last few years Kevin Clash went mad with power, and now it's all-Elmo all the time--a bit much, in my opinion.
And yeah, they're nice, but they're definitely still flawed people. That makes them way easier to identify with. (My sister and I like to point out that Kermit is perpetually surrounded by idiots ... that takes its toll.)
