Description Isn't it sad that I don't have enough plot for Sesame Academy, yet I'm already deciding on cameos?

Anyway, here's some characters who would appear in the background if I ever made a real comic. Can you guess them all? Here are two clues:
- The colors are significant in identifying them.
- The five characters on the left are from PBS, the rest are from books (regardless of the fact they've all been animated at one point or another).

Characters (c) answers will be posted in a few weeks
Art and Sesame Academy concept (c) Able Tong


June 2012. wow. I took that long to post.
Answers:
Top Row:
the PBS Kids mascots, Dot and Dash; Max from Where the Wild Things Are; Peter from The Snowy Day, Brother and Sister Bear from the Berenstain Bears.
Bottom Row: Sean, Shamus, and Meg from Jakers! The Adventures of Piggley Winks; Ruby and Max; Curious George; Harold (and his Purple Crayon); and Madeline.

Characters (c) PBS, Maurice Sendak, Ezra Jack Keats, Stan and Jan Berenstain, Rosemary Wells, Margaret and Hans Augusto Rey, Crockett Johnson, and Ludwig Bemelmans

How about the ZOOMers? Maybe they would age from 4th to 9th graders, or maybe 8th to 12th graders, or probably college students. Whatever works! The season 6 and 7 ZOOMers will be perfect for Sesame Academy because 6 and 7 are my favorite seasons of ZOOM.

Also, I'm afraid Mr. Rogers won't be able to be on the show because of his death in 2003. However, his wife Joanne would like to make a special guest appearence in one of the episodes talking about her past.

Though Ruff Ruffman wouldn't be working as a staff member in Sesame Academy, he might run his own business company for marketing and stock exchange for the PTA.

LeVar Barton might appear in the cover of a magazine dressed as his character from Star Trek: The Next Generation in one of the episodes.

Now I know I'm a little crazy and this is not from PBS Kids, but PBS itself, here it is! Don't freak out! Bob Ross would work as an art teacher at Sesame Academy because he loves painting canvases. Sorry Deadpool fans!

That's all!

This is the most intriguing and original picture I've seen in a while! I remember reading the Berenstein Bears and Where The Wild Things Are and watching Jakers. That is definitely how I'd picture teenage Max

I recognized everyone except Peter. Though I don't think I had "The Snowy Day" in my collection of books.

Would love to see more comics. Also, Jan and Stan Berenstain would be proud. As well as the majority of the creators of these shows.

Wowie! Starting to sound more like the "PBS Academy!" lol! Still I think you have a very interesting concept here. I've thought of something similar, but not focusing on the wider-range of PBS Show-characters as a whole. My idea was more focused on the variety of Henson's creations only, but I don't know if it'll ever come to be.

Regardless, it was fun perusing your sketches for Sesame Academy & it's characters! I think you've got an awesome idea here and a great vision for conceptualization! Keep up the awesome work!

First two are correct!
Actually, his name is Dash, but other than that, correct!

ROFL, no that's not LeVar Burton! I decided early on that I'd only put fictional characters/fictionalized versions of real people and not actual people themselves in Sesame Academy.
