Jim Henson Idea Man
Remember the life. Honor the legacy. Inspire your soul. The new Jim Henson documentary "Idea Man" is now streaming exclusively on Disney+.
Bear arrives on Disney+ The beloved series has been off the air for the past 15 years. Now all four seasons are finally available for a whole new generation.
I've come to believe that Frank was performing Little Jerry in "Mad", although, of course, it was Jerry's voice. It was something about how Frank manipulated in early AM's that was different from Jerry's. I also think that Jerry was manipulating Big Jeffy in that scene.
(This can be seen in...
Interesting! Pray tell, where did you get that information?
If that's true, I wonder if that's Danny in the Noggin episode where BB is figuring out how to move bags pf birdseed to his nest.
Come to think of it, I don't even know what Danny sounds like. I just know he's done full bodied...
Could we add Dave Goelz to the list? True, he wasn't a regular, but he did contribute. Also someone mentioned Jane Henson. Which would make sense, because I remember seeing a photo of Jane performing Ernie's right hand.
This might or might not count.
In Show #1, when he was an anonymous monster, after eating the lines to Kermit's "W" he tried to eat Kermit himself, almost by his frog's legs.
But he was far less developed at the time. He didn't understand that it's not polite to devour your friends yet. :)
Both of them were, of course, once played by the same performer, Brian Muehl/Meehl. But then when Brian left, Telly and Grungetta were taken by Marty Robinson and Pam Arciero, respectively.
Now for a real answer to your question.
Yes, they have appeared together. One time that sticks in my...
I can mention a few more amusing appearances:
-Adrian, the orange AM girlfriend of the teenage boy (Jim) who sand "A You're Adorable".
-A mother in a family which demonstrates different ways to group themselves. This voice, which is probably in your heads: "Or you could think of us like...
I know what you mean. If I didn't know that Howie was a lop, I would swear that this was one of those talking pink rubber balls. Know what I mean?
Two questions remains in my simple mind on this topic:
1. His opening line, "Hi there, it's me, Howie!" makes me wonder whether he was a short...
I remember it. If I recall correctly, there were clouds hovering about the mountain. They were just stationary. But then the "clouds" turned out to be giant moving eyebrows of this monstrous mountain. I think that's right.
I also remember the cloud giving a hiccup. And the Swiss Miss girl...
I wonder whether he was supposed to have legs that curl behind him, because when the Herry puppet is seen from the back and sides, you see the soles of two sneakers. Maybe he was supposed to be cut off at the knee and have his feet kick back. Whatever it was, it didn't come out that way...
To continue on this thought, another character this Muppeteer played was in a Super Grover sketch. He* played a little girl AM who used SG's box to take her groceries home after the bag tore. Again, the right hand was the only hand moving. (This sketch was described in the Unpaved book.)
This...
Upon looking at the statue dancing, I could see that as being Jerry now.
It is becoming clearer. It must have been fun for him to play Ernie, or even an emulation of Ernie, even for a little while. I don't know if Jerry reads these posts, but it would be interesting to know how enjoyed...
I'm pretty sure it's "The Garden". The tune is almost exactly the same as on the Sesame Street 2 album. Judging by the look of Cookie Monster and Grover, I'd say this skit was probably as early as the third season. It very well may have been sung on the street in the 2nd season, hence the song...
Here's another. In one of my favorite "News Flash" segments, Kermit is interviewing one of the Three Little Pigs, and then the Big Bad Wolf, who blows everything away except the straw house.
The three plants are among the first to be blown away, one by one. When they get to the third on the...
This one I'm not sure about.
But I'm going to guess that in Grover Waiter's "Alphabet Soup", Fat Blue (Jerry) fumbled his line but then recovered. He tells Grover that the 'Y' is missing, and Grover plays along. Then he realizes, "No, I'm wrong. I have the 'Y' there.... It's the 'Z'." Grover...
I don't know if this is the correct answer to your question. But I remember in an interview ("Henson's Place"), Jim said that in the beginning that Frank Oz didn't like Bert very beginning because he thought he was too dull. But then he found a way to make this dullness into this incredible...
