Captain?

For those of you who grew up watching Sesame Street, you may have seen this lovely character - Captain Vegetable.

For those of you who watch Monk, you may know this guy - Captain Stottlemeyer.

Yes. It is he - Captain Vegetable.

I contend they are basically the same person.

Am I the only one who thinks they sound and look a lot alike?
See the above link for the Captain Vegetable song (for those of you poor souls who managed to grow up in this cruel world without our noble hero.) I couldn't find any clips of Stottlemeyer, but you can go to www.hulu.com and watch him there.

Seriously. I'd pay good money to hear that actor sing that song.

A long time ago, I saw one where John Leguizamo dressed up and did Captain Vegetable. I thought it was hysterical. Maybe because I'd never seen the regular CV. I don't know. I saw it just now on YouTube, and I was so disappointed. It wasn't nearly as funny as I remembered it being. Oh well.
