The Happytime Murders has incurred the wrath of Sesame Street producers who claim the new Melissa McCarthy/dirty puppet movie’s marketing strategy confuses fans into mistakenly believing the real Sesame Street is associated with the movie –  while, all the while, it is really intent on ruining its wholesome image.

“No Sesame. All Street.” is the tag line of the movie, which features a cast of foul-mouthed, fornicating, drug-taking, and COPIOUSLY EJACULATING puppets, who may look like muppets, but are decidedly darker and edgier. Have I mentioned all the puppet cum in the trailer? I think you need to watch the trailer. And wear a raincoat.

Sesame Workshop is suing STX Productions — the company behind Melissa McCarthy‘s new movie — claiming its marketing strategy confuses fans into mistakenly believing Sesame is in cahoots with the movie while ruining its wholesome image.

In docs, obtained by TMZ, Sesame says its beef is with the marketing campaign that features the tagline “NO SESAME. ALL STREET” and a trailer with “explicit, profane, drug-using, misogynistic, violent, copulating and even ejaculating puppets.”

What’s more … Sesame says STX does not own, control or have the right to use “Sesame Street.” Sesame says it’s tried to get STX to drop the act but to no avail.

So it’s suing to get STX to drop the tagline and unspecified damages. We’ve reached out to STX … so far no word back.

Watch the trailer below. (Confession: I’m still gong) HappyTime Murders hits theaters August 17.
