Trasha



Trasha is a British seller of old fish who acts, talks, and sounds exactly like a real Grouch. Trasha appears in an episode of Sesame Street in a spoof of My Fair Lady with Oscar the Grouch and his girlfriend Grundgetta. In that spoof skit she tries to teach Grundgetta to say the phrase "Fish! Old fish!" with a Cockney accent.

Grundgetta doesn't get it at the beginning, and she says Trasha must've been born sounding the way that she does now. Trasha is shocked and says that she wasn't born the grouchy seller of old fish that Oscar and Grundgetta are looking at. She admits she used to be nice, sweet, and cute, which completely grosses the Grouches out. But then she tells them the story of the day she started taking lessons from the legendary Profesor Piggins on how to sound like him, which she eventually succeeded at. Grundgetta tries one more time and she sounds just like Trasha on her next try! (Trasha: "I think she got it!" Grundgetta: "Old' fish!" Trasha: "By George she's got it!" Oscar: "Wow!")
