Anyone remember this character?

[muppet maniac]

There was one "Monsterpiece Theater" segment that had this green AM Muppet with a long sword-like nose who'd chase someone whoever said "nose". I believed this character was performed by Jerry Nelson.

What is his name??

 

[jellyman kelly]

was it 'cyranose de bergerac' or did i see that parody on another show...?

 

[The Count]

Yes, you're correct. The name of the character in question from Monsterpiece Theater was Cyrranose De Bergerac. They even went so far as to give him his own episodic storyline and brought in his paramour from the original story, Roxanne. Kinda funny actually. Cyrranose had the long nose and got offended whenever anyone said the word "nose", and Roxanne had these ears that would tingle whenever she used them to hear certain sounds from a bit far away.
Hope this helps and have a good day.

I also remember a street plot/episode from around the early 90s (1992-1993) where he visited SS, and here's a few scenes I remember:

*Luis and Maria (I think, were sitting on the steps of the Arbor Area) and then suddenly, this yellow/pink fuzz comes over...can't remember much, but I do remember that he tried to "poke" them both at the end of that scene

*Then it's Oscar and Maria. OScar yells out, "Nosey Nosey Nosey!" and quickly ducks down into his can while Cyranose angrily "drills" his nose into the trashcan, which in a later scene has a big hole which Fluffy's trunk poked out of. Also in that scene, Elmo and a few other adults (and Cyranose and OScar as well) sing some song

*At the end of the episode, he was chatting with Big Bird for a while by the bus stop and when they announce the sponsors---Cyranose says "nose" and Elmo bursts in, now dressed as Cyranose and chases him
