Spike (monster)

Spike is monster from Sesame Street. He has gray fur, wears a matching vest that blends in with it and shades, and displays a rather hip attitude. He appeared in an early nineties episode in which, having just gotten a furcut from Barbara the Barber, he meets Telly Monster on his way to get his, accompanied by Mike and Uncle Wally. In addition to a typical haircut (which looks slightly uneven due to the tuft of fur hanging down the left side of his head), Spike had also had a word inscribed by Barbara on the back. He says that he had hoped the word would be 'broccoli', but there wasn't enough room, so he settled for 'go'. He tells a rather dubious Telly to enjoy his furcut and then does what it says on his head and goes.
