Mysterious Theater was a series of segments shown on Sesame Street, starting in Season 21 (1989). The segment was a parody of the PBS series Mystery!, from the opening title art (referencing the Edward Gorey-designed Mystery! titles) to spoofing the show's former host Vincent Price as Vincent Twice. In contrast to the anthology format of Mystery!, "Mysterious Theater" exclusively featured Sherlock Hemlock and his faithful dog, Watson. The skits were rerun until the late-1990s. The theme music was composed by Dave Conner.

The theme music was composed by Dave Conner. "Mysterious Theater" was also used as part of a street scene in episode 2751, in which Maria loses a sock on laundry day, and Vincent Twice introduces himself to Maria to host the segment "The Case of the Missing Sock." Sherlock Hemlock attempts to find the sock, but Watson finds it first and runs off with it, leading to Maria chasing the dog, though Sherlock does not notice and continues to seek the sock. Vincent Twice re-enters to close out "Mysterious Theater," Maria continues chasing Watson and the sock, and Sherlock attempts to find the sock as Vincent Twice announces the sponsors.
