Your Favorite Muppets? - Blu-ray Forum

OK, there's way too many to list in this poll, but I've included all the most well-known ones, plus an "Other" option, so you can list any not included. Let the memories begin!

Those Martian twins who try to communicate with the telephone. Brrrrrrriiing! Yip yip yip!

Oh, and Guy Smiley.

Tom Hiddleston · 07-19-2011, 03:35 PM

Statler and Waldorf.

Fozzie: I don't got rhythm.
Rowlf: That's for sure.
Fozzie: I don't got rhythm.
Rowlf: Who can ask for anything more?
Statler: We could!
Waldorf: Yeah! Earplugs!

@ nuBlu - Classic!

PS - Elmo can burn in hell . . . he is a poser Muppet. Scooter would kick Elmo's ass. Just sayin'

(Thank you, btw, for avoiding the temptation of second-generation "Muppets From Space"-raised fans to include Pepe Prawn on the list as if he belonged there.

Now that the Baby Boomer Guy's "I remember the Show as a kid!" Disney movie is unaware that any new characters were added to the canon since 1981, we can get back to the valuable business of pretending Triumph the Insult Shrimp never existed. There was never a clearer indicator of how much we lost with Jim & Jerry.

Actually, Richard Hunt's early Elmo (a "toddler" monster that Big Bird looked after) was a better character than Kevin Clash's series-usurper, but real life intruded.

Favorite Muppet though?
Normally the temptation would be to say Red Fraggle (well, duh!), as I've mellowed in age, I feel it's more important to reach out to one's own artistic creativity--
We hippies have learned to prefer Mokey.

I really like the original cast of The Muppet Show. I didn't care too much for the characters on Sesame Street.
