Grundgetta

 Earliest Known Appearance: Episode 1452  GRUNDGETTA  is  OSCAR THE GROUCH  ' s equally  TRASHY   rotten ,  GROUCH  girl friend.  OSCAR  occasionally calls her  GRUNGIE  but she generally calls him   OSKIE . In addition to bein g a " couple ", they ' re best friend s t oo.  OSCAR  &  GRUNDGETTA , as stated by  OSCAR  & Gordon ' s sister Olivia have been best friends for " a  VERY  long time ".  GRUNDGETTA  ' s earliest appear ance was in Season 12.

 GRUNDGETTA , like  OSCAR  , has had a number of pets  over the years includ ing her  WORM   Sylvia  , a  ROTTEN  doodle  named  Itchy  & a MUD dy pig let who won the Yucchiest Pet contest in  OSCAR  ' s  GROUCH  Jamboree .

 GRUNDGETTA , like  OSCAR  , sometime s slips up as a  GROUCH  , but not al ways. In  EPISODE 3763  of  SESAME STREET  when both she &  OSCAR  tell  SALLY MESSY YUCKYAEL  how  OSCAR  unwillingly fell in lo ve w / her ( which she snapped him  out of completely by kiss ing  him  ), eventually ,  GRUNDGETTA  starts feelin the same way. Just like  OSCAR  did, she h ear s " yucky sweet violin music " , her heart starts going " pitty p at , pitty pat " & she no longer feels like arguing. She begs  OSCAR  to just kiss her before she confesses her true love to him , which  he  agree s to do. How ever, just as expected she gets extremely angry.  OSCAR  says she told him  to do i t, but then she asks  him  if  he  ' d jump off a bridge if she told  him  to. After that th  ey start arguing again.

In a video released for t he "  SESAME  Family Robinson ", blog  PAM ARCIERO  was playing around w it h the  GRUNDGETTA  Muppet.  GRUNDGETTA  commented that she was nervous since she hadn ' t been on camera in months, referencing her absence in recent year s.

Name
The spelling of this character ' s name h as also varied ov er the y ear s, switchin be tween "  GRUNDGETTA  " & "  GRUNGETTA  ".

T he spell ing "  GRUNDGETTA  " appears in the story book s, including & the books   A  GROUCH  ' s Christ mas  &  OSCAR  ' s  GROUCH  Jamboree  , the  albums   OSCAR  ' s  TRASHY  Songs  & Let ' s Be Friends , & the Applause plush doll. Current SESAME Workshop press kits list the character as "  GRUNDGETTA  ", as does an internal C T W document from 1 99 4. As of January 1 8 t h, 2 00 8 , typing "  GRUNDGETTA  " in the search engine on the  SESAME STREET  Video Player gives results , but typ ing "  GRUNGETTA  " shows absolutely no result s what so ever. How ever, results can be found for either spell ing at [http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Sesamestreet.org  SESAME STREET . org ].

However, the  SESAME   STREET  Unpaved boo k & the  SESAME STREET  " 3 5 Years Anniversary Game " refer to the character a s "  GRUNDGETTA  ". A Workshop press kit from 19 8 4 uses "  GRUNGETTA  ", as do the SESAME Family Newsletters from the early 2000 s.
