Muppets who missed their chance

[LamangoNumber2]

Phil Van Neuter; haven't seen him since MFS. I bring him up A LOT in threads about underused Muppets, b/c he was a fun character and has a lot of unused potential, especially as a foil/ nemesis for Bunsen Honeydew.

Well, Brian Henson retired from doing Muppet related things, I think.

It is too early to recast him? Like I said, I feel the character has a lot of potential that is going to waste, and I liked Van Nueter's overall design as well.

Brian has a certain voice, though.

Brian has a certain voice, though.

I know, but at the same time Jerry, Jim, Frank, and Richard had voices and mannerisms that could never be duplicated, but other Muppeteers have taken on their characters nonetheless.

But Brian WAS one of the other muppeteers who tried to fill in for Richard's Characters, and even his father's Newsman.

I really liked Hilda. She was like the den mother on the Muppet Show. It was funny when she tried to play it up as a younger woman.

[Muppet Master]

Vendaface! He never got a chance to do anything but three measly sketches and a random season 3 return. Also, the non-piggy moopets did literally NOTHING. I really wanted to hear Rowlf or Janice as moopets, and wouldn't kermoot be a no-brainer for some decent screen-time?

I feel bad that Lips never got his chance in to be featured more. I feel rully bad
