Muppet Character Age Thoughts

[Alpha Centauri]

I really don't see Piggy being older then Kermit, I think they're round the same age maybe late 30's to early 40's, and Robin doesn't seem like a five your old to me ether I see him as being six too.

 

[Super Scooter]

I know I'll get harassed for this, but just because he sang that song doesn't make it so. I can see him as 6-9.

Agreed. Robin always seemed to be somewhere between 7 and 9 to me. Even in his early appearances, he seemed older than 5. I think Kermit just thought of him as younger. How many 5 year olds can play 18 (Frog Prince)?

Scooter and Annie Sue I can picture in their late teens, fresh out of high school and trying to make it big in show business. Sort of the Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland of the Muppet universe (hey! Story idea!).

I would have guessed Dr. Teeth and the Swedish Chef were in their fifties.

I agree with Jamie's Statler and Waldorf ages, but I think Pops would be a few years younger than them (maybe 80 instead of 90). Statler and Waldorf remember Kaiser Bill in the summer of 1912 (and how funny he looks in a hat), so they'd have to at least be in their 80s in 1976.

Remember, the magic triangle, the pupils, they tell how mature the muppet is. Smaller, like Kermit= mature, while wider or totally black, like Bean= immature.

Also, the Dog age thing. And manerisims. Like lets say, Kermit, he's still young but old enough for Vicky to watch on the Muppet Show. And Fozzie still lives with ma... and we don't want him to be a 45 year old living with mommy... thats more pathetic than he is....I KEED!

2.15 Digit and utterly shocked

This one confused me. You claim he's only two point one five years old? I didn't think the amount of time the puppet was actually used (alas ) was fair game for this game. That said, expressing his age with a decimal is kinda cool. Maybe you meant "Digit version two point one five" in computery reference to character changes from Inner Tube to Cosby Show to TJHH?

When TJHH aired in '89, I thought Digit's voice sounded like someone in his 40s (now I'm almost 40 myself, I think he sounds even older). And his pupils are teeny, so he's definitely a mature muppet specimen. (Can't you just hear his voice used to say "You kids get off my lawn!"?)

(And what does "utterly shocked" mean? You or him?)

 

[Gemini Draco]

Well, I have never really thought about the age thing, well, I sort of did. But I mostly thought about what the age range can be when it came to the Electric Mayhem.

To start, I think that Animal is the youngest. I guess being in his 20s, early to mid 20s. Following that would be Janice, she is definitely the second youngest, being late 20s to early 30s. Then I think about Floyd, Zoot and Dr. Teeth. This is where it gets hard. I remember reading that the person who played Zoot said that is was in his 50s. That i can believe. But I also believe that he is the oldest of the band members. Making me think that Floyd is in his 40s and so is Dr. Teeth. However, I still can't think about who is older, maybe they are just around the same age.

That is all that I could think of when it came to Muppet Ages. Though, I think of Scooter, and in the Muppet Show he seemed to be a lot younger because I remember him saying that he was selling magazines to get a skateboard from his school but I think that he has changed, his age, over the years.

Wait.... *thinks* MAN OH MAN! I have a heart for someone in his 50s? .... *shrug* Oh well.

Anyway, thinking of Bunsen, I think that he is more like somewhere in his late 30s maybe early 40s. And I think Beakers is in his early 30s.

Statler and Waldorf? Hmm.... I would say 80s, there are some rather fit 80 year olds. Though, I don't know if you can call them fit since they are always sitting in the box.

Oh, and to LamangoNumber2, Paul McCartney is in his 60s and he can still very active. Though, I do have to agree that Dr. Teeth seems like he is in his 40s, as I have stated before.

[Chinchilla]

I agree.

 

[bazooka_beak]

Um, wow. I never really thought of their ages before! I feel a little weird looking through everybody's lists, like I've been disenchanted somehow XD OK, only a little. But I think Miss Piggy will always tell you she's 29, no matter what

Ah, I knew the 'half cyborg' thing would get people. Like Waldo, Digit is a machine, or, mostly. So I basicly used the same logic as it comes with Waldo. And by utterly shocked, I mean the face Digit always does. I know it wasn't a funny joke... I didn't even know Digit's puppet was used that long. o.o;
