Who was your favorite muppet? (Sesame Street and Fraggle Rock count, too)

[zenbooty]

I always liked the Swedish Chef best.

Ralph and Dr. Teeth were up there, too.

[eSDee]

I would have to say Animal. He was the coolest. Also I thought all the Doozers from Fraggle Rock were cool as well. Thanks for the memories. :)

[apmiller]

Gonzo the Great!

I love watching him mess up his stage tricks. I like his little buddy Ratzo too.

[ProPain]

the two old men in the balcony on the Muppets? Now they were cool!

[welfareloser]

twiddlebugs. they were cool. and the two-headed monster. and those two old farts in the balcony. i'll go try to look up their names - i think one was maurice...

[cruelpupet]

i know im gonna mispell this, but from seaseme street its snufalufagus

from fraggle rock its wimbley

from the muppets its gonzo

[Rain]

I agree with zenbooty, Swedish Chef rocked.

Hey, wait. Do the movies count too? Can we lump in like, Dark Crystal?

[m0j0]

Snuffleuppagus all the way, baby!

[Loki]

IT'S ALL ABOUT BEAKER BABY!!!

Gotta love how he let the professor do all kinds of crazy experiments on him.

"Mee...mee mee mee"

Oh ya I love Animal too. :D

[welfareloser]

Who are the two old guys in the balcony?
Statler and Waldorf. Statler is the taller, thinner one sitting on the right as we look at them in their box. Waldorf's wife is named Astoria. They are all named after old New York hotels.


got that from http://www.panix.com/~teej/muppet.html#7

[topane]

Gonzo all the way

[styleee]

Fozzie Bear

[Chinpoko_Mon]

Grover aka Super-Grover...from Sesame Street

The Mexican lobster and the bear (security guard) from Muppets Tonight (That was a great show.. too bad it got canned...)

Gonzo from The Muppet Show

The Doozers from Fraggle Rock (I always wondered what the little crystaline things taste like... you know, the ones that the Doozers use to build their stuff out of?)

Fav skit of all: PIGS IN SPACE!!!

[TheLoneGunman]

Fozzie bear -- furry, tries to be funny and fails, kinda fat -- just like me


Animal --- arrrggg, arrrgg, arrrtggg!


oscar the grouch -- wannabe badass -- again just like me

[chrissy]

Prairie Dawn
"Welcome! Oh welcome to our little show!"

But I always liked the Grover waiter scenes.

As for the Muppet show, It would have to be Miss Piggy. Pigs in Space rocked :)

[jujubees]

Oooh, that's a good one, too. Almost forgot him!

[Chinpoko_Mon]

The Count is okay... the only time when he's really funny is when he's with Ernie and Ernie starts freakin' out cuz of the lightning... =P

[DaFunkyUnit]

Oscar the Grouch was my favorite guy!!! Somehow, I was able to identify with that cool cat.... lived in a sh--ty hell hole, always cranky, and has a penchant for nasty a-- foods. heh

Am i the only one who hates elmo?

nope! i can't stand elmo!

i liked snuffy when everyone but big bird thought he was made up, but i think i like barkley the best.

my favorite sesame street skit, however, involves ernie in bert. the key phrase is "i can't hear you, i have a banana in my ear."

my favorite fraggle is red. she does what she wants, says whats on her mind. i like the doozers a whole lot too.

rolf was my favoarite muppet, tho i can honestly say there wasn't one that i didn't like.

[Chinpoko_Mon]

So did nobody like the new charaters introduced in Muppets Tonight? or is it just me who like that show so much...

Bobo the security guard bear..

Now I remember, the lobster's name was Pepe.. and his sidekick was Seymour. Here they are:

And their "Bay of Pigswatch" with Spamela Hamderson... =P


and classic Gonzo

Hey Chinpoko do you remember that one episode of Fraggle Rock when the Doozers were fighting over which flavor to make the structures? Half of them wanted mustard flavor and the other half wanted tomato flavored I believe. The Doozers were trying to convince Wembly to say which one tasted better even though he thought they both tasted like crap. At the end he can't decide which to eat first, so he eats them both at the same time, and realizes that together they taste delicious but by themselves they sucked.
So I guess that's what it tasted like. Tart yet sweet perhaps. I always wanted to try some myself :)

i think it was radish flavored

[eSDee]

Radish and mustard? Hmm that could be it I guess. Time to do some research :)

[ChrisMG187]

SNUFFALPPAGUS!!!!!!

[oblongmelon]

GROVER! :)

[coleslaw]

Elmo man! I had the Elmo song stuck in my head for like a whole week. It was pathetic!

But other than the little furry red guy, I love Beeker. He rocks.

[gwilks98]

I can do a spot on match kermit impersonation..
I'm still called Kermit by quite a few people. It sucks.


My roomate HATES big bird for some reason. Big Bird is on his long "to kill" list.

[eSDee]

Remember on the Simpsons when Homer tried to donate all that money to PBS to get his favorite TV show aired, and when they went to collect it they sent all the Sesame Street characters after him?

Whenever I think of Big Bird I think of when he swooped down on Homer in the alley :)


Oh and tOrangeOne, I found a bunch of sites on fraggle rock, with many of the episodes listed, but I can't find what the Doozer structures were made of that episode. I'm willing to submit that it was probably radish and not tomato flavored, since they refer to the caves as the "Radish mines".

Very true.

[TheLoneGunman]

Just heard "Sensamia Street" and it is pretty funny.

Pull it off Napster.
