Summary: LOVE THIS !!!!
Review: My husband and I were really wondering weither or not to buy this one-- We did and I am happy to say that it has turned out to be one of the best DVD'd my two year old owns- he will actually sit on the couch and watch the entire show!!! leaving me some much needed time to prepare dinner or do house work!! although I have to confess that I do stop to watch this one myself... and so does my husband- the music is so cool- and I love the way they made this-so that it is fun for all of us-- I highly recommend this to anyone

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: JUST ENJOY IT FOR WHAT IT IS
Review: Don't look too much into this show; just enjoy it for what it is: an all-star list of celebrities having a ball with Sesame Street. A simplistic answer, but true. When this premiered on television, I wasn't expecting much. All I knew was that I loved the muppets and I loved Sesame Street; and with that in mind, I enjoyed it immensly. The guest stars interact perfectly with the muppets, and they look/act as if they're having a wonderful time. This, I think, is what makes this program worth watching.

I can understand why younger children might not like ELMOPALOOZA very much, but that doesn't mean you have to give it a negative review as well. As a certain character on The Simpsons once said, "Don't live through your children" :) It's a fun show; it's a care-free show; and, most importantly of all, it's a SESAME STREET show. Not every young child is required to like every DVD/video they release.

And who cares if Rosie doesn't have a great singing voice? She is funny, and she has a great time with Elmo; that's why I love it.

I mean, calm down. This is SESAME STREET, for God's sake!

Summary: Not baby friendly
Review: Way too much talking and real people. My child loves Elmo and all the Sesame Street characters, but this has more of Jon Stewart than Elmo. Prairie Dawn states how they will all be in "Deep Doo Doo" if the show does not go on, which is totally inappropriate for my preschooler.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My children love this DVD!
Review: My daughters just love Elmopalooza. At 3 years old and 13 months old, the two of them will sit through the entire thing, clapping and dancing to the music, and laughing at all the right parts. Great purchase!!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Major disappointment
Review: Okay, my wife and I couldn't stand it, but my child, who loves Elmo, couldn't sit through it. Thank heavens for fast-forward. By the way, who ever told Rosie she could sing?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Great Video For Children And Adults
Review: We all love it! Very creative and fun.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Our whole family loves it!
Review: This is the only video that will keep our child happy when she's upset. She's been watching it since she was three months old. I think my husband and I have seen it over 100 times and we still enjoy it. It has a variety of musical acts, all very entertaining and creative. Jon Stewart is hilarious!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: No Fun!
Review: My daughter and I are both big Sesame Street fans, and both of us were disappointed by this video. She's three, and I think it just bored her. Too many adults, not enough puppets. One of the things that bothered me was that most the people in the video seemed very angry. I know that sounds strange....but, well,it was strange. Especially for Sesame Street.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Incredibly BAD!!!
Review: Let me start by saying our son is a big Elmo fan, and we think "The Best of Elmo" is tremendous.

This DVD starts VERY VERY VERY slowly...and gets worse and worse and worse. The opening segment takes forever to get through and offers nothing to keep your child's attention or your attention. When the music finally starts, it is disappointing beyond description. Our son hated it, we hated it, and returned it after 1 abbreviated viewing. This DVD has nothing to offer for anyone in any age bracket.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: NICE BOX COVER
Review: But the video is the WORST!!! This video was actually recommended to me and I was so disappointed (and so was my 17 month old son, who lost interest almost as soon as I put it on). As other reviewers said, there are too many adults and not enough Elmo or any of the other muppets. Except for the Rosie segment (which was actually pretty good, but too late in the show),the musical numbers are not appropriate for toddlers, either. They are slickly produced music videos instead of muppets dancing and singing in the studio with the singers, which is what they usually do on Sesame Street. The plot was really dumb and full of inside jokes. I am in the entertainment industry and I did not even like these jokes!... Then there were all these really brief celebrity cameos.... I can't understand how anyone could give this video a good review, but I guess to each his own.
