Green Monsters all look alike

Are the Grinch and Oscar the Grouch related?

I doubt it.

The Grinch was grumpy because his heart was too small.

Oscar is grouchy because his personal tastes are different than the cultural norm, and he resents the cultural pressure to conform, so he pushes back (he actually likes sardine ice cream with chocolate sauce, thank you very much). But he actually is quite kind in his own way -- he's certainly much nicer to his pets Slimy, Fluffy, and Iago than the Grinch was to poor Max.

Besides, Oscar's fur is actually orange -- that green color comes from the algae he allows to grow on it.

It is, in fact, canon. And photographic evidence can be found here, from the Muppet Wiki site: http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Oscar_the_Grouch

Well, Barney is evil; I could tell from the very first episode when his "human" child "best friends" sounded nothing at all like children when they sang.

Diabolical minions posing as children, is more like it...
