Fans of the "Twilight" series of books and movies may have divided themselves up into "Team Edward" and "Team Jacob" camps, but "Sesame Street" knows the truth — we are all on "Team Cookie."

That's part of what makes their new viral video movie spoof of "Twilight: Breaking Dawn" so terrific. Cookie Monster plays a "yumpire" called Shortbredward who has a hard time controlling his cookie appetite — which means the love of his life, sleepy-eyed Belly, goes hungry.

Enter Bacob, who's a howling success in the kitchen but also has some great self-control strategies to offer the furry yumpire.

Can Cookie change before his wedding to Belly? If not, it might be goodbye, Mr. Chips!
