Sesame Street Travels to Middle Earth in 'Lord of the Rings' Parody

What's This?

If there was one cookie to rule them all, chances are Cookie Monster would be the one to make it — and then eat it himself. That's exactly what happens in "Lord of the Crumbs," Sesame Street's latest pop culture parody, which takes a swing at J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings .

The Cookie Monster plays Gobble, the last known holder of the most powerful dessert recipe in Monster Earth. He must remember the recipe in order to bring cookies back to the land, but his own memory and lack of self control stand in the way.
