Big Bird has a teddy bear named Radar, which is a nod to Walter "Radar" O'Reilly of M*A*S*H, who brought a teddy bear with him to war and was also lovably naive and innocent. Radar was given to Big Bird by Gary Burghoff (who played Radar on M*A*S*H) when he guest starred on the show. Later on, however, it was said that Big Bird got the bear as a gift from Mr. Hooper.
