The segment takes place in a [[computer animated]] [[crayon]]-drawn room imagined by Elmo. Each episode follows a familiar pattern whereby the theme is introduced with Elmo's pet goldfish, Dorothy (whose tank changes decor for the occasion), [[Mr. Noodle]] tries to mime the subject (usually unsuccessfully at first), Elmo and Dorothy interact with live children on the subject topic, Elmo will ask a baby about the subject (the running joke is that the baby of course never answers), Dorothy will imagine Elmo in fantasy sequences based on the subject (which are amazingly detailed given the short duration of the sequence), and then a guest muppet related to the subject topic will visit. Various elements in the room -- "drawer", "TV", and "computer" -- will also contribute videos on the topic, featuring a combination of other Sesame Street puppets, taped live field reports from kids, or cartoon on the [subject] Channel (which all feature the same female voice actor). In Dorothy's imaginations, Elmo is seen as animals such as a [[rabbit]], a [[cat]], a [[mouse]] and a [[squirrel]] and is dressed up in clothes from around the world. The segment always ends with "Dorothy wants us to sing the [subject] song", which is a medley of [[Jingle Bells]] (all the lyrics changed to the subject name, repeated over and over) and the refrain from "Elmo's Song". |
