Name that detective

[sesameguy]

I recently saw a clip from Sesame St. featuring a young girl playing a detective-type character. She wore a fedora and trenchcoat, the way detectives in the old movies do. She was there with a young boy (her brother, maybe?) trying to solve a case of some kind. My question is: what's the name of this character? I know she's been on the show before, but I can't place her. I know she is a more "recent" character (post 2002, probably). Anybody know?

Jane Tuesday.

Really bad play on the Dragnet character "Joe Friday."

I do not know what her brother's name is, but I nicknamed him "Crayon Shin-Chan's special cousin" for obvious reasons.

Seriously. Someone's gotta cut down on his sugar and caffine inatake.

Thanks Drtooth- another Sesame mystery solved!

It reminds me of "Mathnet" with Officer Monday from Square One TV, as well as the great Sesame muppet skit with Sgt. Thursday and partner looking for the letter "W."
