  • Best "Spoof" – Sesame Street does Madmen. Or any humorous imitation of something.

 

  • Best web personality – Who could you watch over and over?

 

  • Best Video Remix/Mash-up – Could be a serious music remix, could be Sesame Street characters "singing" Lady Gaga.

 

  • Funniest Dance – Pretty self explanatory.

 

  • People's Choice – This is the favorite overall video, whether it wins in another category or not.
