The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland (1999) is the second movie based on the characters of the children's television series Sesame Street (after Follow That Bird). It co-starred Mandy Patinkin and Vanessa Williams.

The Pesties

The Pesties, named M'Lady, Little Ricky, Tanya, Lyle, Howard and Sydney, are the willing minions of Bug and Huxley in the movie. They always do what they're asked but with their own particular sense of style. They sing, dance, do lots of grunt work—but mostly they love to sunbathe. It's hard to tell just how long they've been with Huxley, but as long as the food is good, they'll probably hang around.

The movie's art director Ed Christie has compared them to the Keystone Kops, "always clanging into each other..."
