Mr. Noodle appears in the "Elmo's World" segment of Sesame Street. A silent character, Mr. Noodle resides in a realm of his own inside Elmo's World, accessible from behind Shade. Elmo frequently asks Mr. Noodle to demonstrate how to perform a chore or answer a question. He responds through pantomime, but invariably gets the process wrong, or fails to follow Elmo's instructions. Through trial and error and repeated prompting, Mr. Noodle usually manages to figure it out.
