Forks Out: A Benoit Blanc Sesame Street Mystery

For years now, the people have wanted only one thing: for Daniel Craig’s chicken-fried detective Benoit Blanc to feature in a Muppet movie (with Craig as the only human). Earlier this year, Netflix picked up the streaming rights for Sesame Street. That partnership has borne some unexpected fruit: Forks Out: A Benoit Blanc Sesame Street Mystery.

In the video, detective Beignet Blanc arrives to investigate who ate Cookie Monster’s triple berry pie.

I have arrived to this Street of Sesame on a sunny day turned cloudy. We have a culinary culprit in our oven mitts. And to solve this confectionary conundrum, we must look right in front of our googly eyes at Cookie Monster.

The whole thing is delightful. See also Nerdist’s Rainbow Connection: A Benoit Blanc Mystery.
