Espinete is the main Muppet from Barrio Sésamo, the Spanish co-production of Sesame Street. Espinete appeared on the show from 1983 to 1987. A big, human-sized muppet, Espinete is a pink hedgehog (in Spanish, erizo is the word for hedgehog, and espina is the word for quill or spine). Espinete does not wear clothes during the day. However, he wears pajamas when going to sleep (including a nightcap), and he also has used disguises (including a wizard,Dracula and a superhero called Super Espi). One of Espinete's most popular songs was Un erizo como yo ("A hedgehog like me").
