He also appeared in the series with distinctive segments such as Elmo's World, Elmo the Musical, Elmo & Tango's Mysterious Mysteries.

The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland
"Is Elmo a Muppet? : Muppet is a trademark created by Jim Henson. That's why Elmo is a muppet. But every muppet is also a puppet. Although the word muppet is usually used for Elmo, it would not be wrong to use the word puppet."
Elmo's Physical Characteristics
Elmo is a furry red muppet. He has two large eyes and unlike most muppets, his eyes are located on the top of his head. Cookie Monster also has this feature. Maybe this is a physical feature that adds to Elmo and Cookie Monster's appeal without us knowing it. His nose resembles an orange egg.
It has an extremely high-pitched sound, called the Falsetto sound in music. Here the puppeteer changes his voice and puts it into a high-pitched form. So Elmo's voice is not made with a computer effect.
Elmo was measured by Drew Brees in episode 4274 and is 24 inches, or 61 centimeters, tall.
Elmo's Potty Time
"Does Elmo have ear? : Of course he has ears. However, muppets are not designed to accurately reflect the real world. For Elmo's big ears, you can watch Elmo's World Ears segment."
"Is Elmo a Boy or Girl? : Elmo is a boy. But on Sesamstrasse, the German version of Sesame Street, for a while her name was Elma and she was a girl."
A Brief History of the Elmo Character and Casting
The character Elmo was designed by puppeteer and muppet designer Carol Wilcox in the late 1970s. This initial design had a wider head.
Elmo first appeared on Sesame Street in episode 1405 in the song We Are All Monsters. Elmo was first voiced by Brian Muehl. (1980–1984) In episode 1439, Elmo was polishing an H with a rag in his hand. Maria approaches him, but Elmo just mutters. Early in his career, Elmo was an unpopular character who couldn't speak but tried to communicate by muttering.
After Brian Muehl, Elmo was performed by Richard Hunt (1984–1985). But Richard Hunt was not good at performing Elmo. After Hunt, Kevin Clash played Elmo. Kevin Clash first voiced Elmo in 1985 in episode 2026. Kevin Clash made Elmo a popular character with his unique performance. (1985–2012)
Ryan Dillon voiced Elmo after Kevin Clash left the show in 2013. (2013 – present)
Elmo Saves Christmas
"Did Elmo go to jail? What Happened to the Guy Who Plays Elmo? : Several lawsuits have been filed against Kevin Clash, the previous puppeteer who voiced Elmo. Although the lawsuits were dismissed, Kevin Clash had to end his career on Sesame Street by resigning."
"What does Elmo Mean? : Elmo has no meaning in English. The word Elmo means helmet, protection in Italian."

There are other characters besides Elmo in the episodes that last 15-20 minutes on average. Dorothy, Elmo's pet goldfish, has a question in every episode.
