Ask Ken at Palisades

[Zack the Dog]

The Kenneth name came from Henson. But there is a question about whether it is "Kevin" or "Kenneth". I don't think I will be able to find out in time, so it looks like Kenneth it is. I'll read your post back on 176 in a bit.

I think Kevin is the name of Lew's baracuda fish, he throws it at Miss Piggy in her nures outfit on the Roger Moore ep backstage.
"get her Kevin!"

lew also says the name of one of his fishes on the Senior Wences (sp) ep.


i thought of the perfect item for the News man and his desk w/backdrop. how about a live tv with eyes and teeth! it didn't really eat the news man on the show but the man watching the news on the tv, it was the news mans desk that ate him but the tv would be more fun and porable and could be placed on the newsmans head!

what do you think?

Wow - well done Zack. That is one cool idea - i'd definitely like to see that one !

Didn't his desk eat him once? That would be cool to have a "transformer" desk that looked like a normal desk, but then eyes could pop open and a mouth with sharp teeth could fold out and chase after him.

Or maybe I'm thinking of a Monty Python episode.

Hi all. This is my first post here, but I'm a long time lurker. I just wanted to take a minute to thank Ken (and the rest of you guys that answer many, many questions). This is a fantastic resource for anyone interested in the Muppets. Also, I've got to say that the new Muppets line is one of the greatest toy lines ever!!!

I just watched this and it's weird caude in the BTS clips of that scene, Lew calls the barricuda "kevin" but in the final cut, in the episode, he says "Fred".

The fish in the Senor Wences episode BTW is Tonya (just tossed that episdoe in to find it)

..and Connie Sue (who was brought up earlier) is from the "Muppets celebrate Jim Henson" where Lew says it's the first fish he could throw away and make come back.

I don't recall there ever being a Kenneth though. I tihnk it's one of those things were there is no 'right' answer because a lof of the names were probably just thing that Jerry Nelson tossed in. Hoep this helps.

You said that one of the reason you wanted ot get rid of bases wasto open the SKU up for a few better accessories. Does that mean that there is now the opportunity to put sheet music in with Rowlf?

No this allows me the opportunity to put a huge freakin' PIANO in with Rowlf.
