Watching the cat herder

I remember watching Sesame Street as a kid and Prairie Dawn was always this character that I didn't connect with at all. Now she's one of my favorite characters.

She has this wonderful air of trying to maintain propriety in spite of the world around her. I love how she embodies the necessary futility of being well mannered when surrounded by lunatics. And particularly when she's paired with Cookie Monster she forms this hilarious object lesson of Superego being overpowered by Id with chaos as the consequence.
