Thursday Morning Riddle
I come just before Papa, and follow November;
The Grouch from a Street that you fondly remember;
Burn Felix’s couch with cigars dropping ember;
And statues they give an Academy member.
Who am I?
UPDATE: Riddle solved by Asher. See comments for answer.

Oscar. Why am I surprised that you know the military alphabet? I see that now it’s known as The NATO phonetic alphabet, officially denoted as the International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet.

OSCAR is correct. Whisky Tango Golf, Asher!
NATO was in the first draft:
I’m what Hollywood gives to its movie elite;
I am roommate to Felix, though not quite as neat;
I’m a NATO-code letter; put crab on your meat;
I’m the joker that’s Wilde; and the Grouch from the Street.
