Oscar the Grouch's trash can

Oscar's trash can is the private domain of Oscar the Grouch on Sesame Street. It is situated between the 123 Sesame Street stoop and Big Bird's nest. Like Doctor Who's TARDIS, the classic clown cars or Snoopy's doghouse, Oscar's trash can is considerably deeper than one would initially suspect. The seemingly bottomless domain houses a variety of diverse Grouch amenities and luxuries.

ANSWER: Literature

Characters in Hamlet

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are characters in William Shakespeare's tragedy Hamlet. They are courtiers who are set by the king to spy on Hamlet, using their claimed friendship with him to gain his confidence. The characters were revived in W. S. Gilbert's satire Rosencrantz and Guildenstern and as the alienated heroes of Tom Stoppard's absurdist play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.
