Default The Muppets

Who's your favorite Muppet, and why?

I always liked Kermit of course...and Fozzie...but I think Gonzo is my fave. He always had a chicken girlfriend. That struck me as odd/funny/silly.

I like Sam the Eagle too, as well as the crotchety old men in the balcony, and Lew Zealand (the boomerang fish thrower!)

Thumbs up That's easy...

from the Muppet Show it would be Animal, Because he was/is the proto-typical DEATH METAL drummer.

From Sesame Street it would be the originator of the COOKIE MONSTER vocal style, the much loved and blue eating machine the Cookie Monster.

Always have and will love the Muppets...Definite metal in their shows if ya look closely!

I agree, but also with the swedish cooker and his song!!
And with the kitchen scene, another favorite scene was the Pigs in spaaaaace..

I love Cookie Monster!! It would be a toss-up between him and Grover.



Kermit and Ernie are up there too. And for Muppet Show Muppets, I love Miss Piggy and Animal.


Yay for gratuitous YouTube linkage.

The Swedish Chef hands down number 1. With Cookie Monster coming in second.

ha haa.. remember I watched Muppets in spanish. I don't remember they called animal.
Miss Piggy was Señorita Piggy and Gonzo was Gonzo, in spanish

but Kermit the frog was La rana Rene.
Scooter was Ciriaco
Fozzie was Figaredo

and Piggy's fellows in the spacecraft were Tocinosky and Jamonovich (Tocino = bacon, Jamon = ham).
