{{quote|Episodes are story-driven, each one quickly setting up an intriguing problem or mysterious nature question, which provides a dramatic arc to be resolved by the end of the episode. The driving force, however, is Elmo, who sees himself as the [[Indiana Jones]] of his own backyard, and finds fascinating adventures to investigate and explore. Sometimes Elmo’s quests lead him to make discoveries, reach “scientific conclusions” and come to appreciate the wonders of the natural world. |

Annie loves to joke around and be silly, and will do things like hang bananas or coconuts from her limbs, pretending to be a different kind of tree (“I’m just feeling so… TROPICAL today!”). Beyond being a great storyteller, Annie is a constant source of shade and welcoming hospitality.}} |
