Big Bo Peep is Little Bo Peep's big brother who appears in Episode 3099 of Sesame Street. The burly shepherd has droopy eyelids, a stuffy voice, and weeps profusely at the drop of a hat—whether he's sad or exceedingly happy.
Big Bo coaches his sister's sheep on a softball team, billed as "Big Bo Peep's Traveling All-Star Sheep." Elmo finds Bo crying because he lost the sheep on their way to the softball field, so he volunteers to help find them. Bo supplies a photo of the five red-hatted sheep (taken at last year's championships in Toledo) for visual reference. Elmo successfully rounds up all of the missing sheep but has difficulty leading them back to Bo, who continues to sob.
