Hello! I watched #3140 on Noggin yesterday, and guess what? Bert, Cookie Monster and Grover appear in the same sketch!! All three characters were performed by Frank Oz and sang "Take A Rest" which it takes place in the Hawaiian Islands and a hotel at the end where Bert, Cookie and Grover as well as the Hawaiian singing muppets took a rest.

Anybody remember this sketch?

I've got that song, and it's a great way to combine all of Frank's main characters. It's really impressive how they pulled it off, all three singing. Now if Frank and Eric Jacobson and David Rudman were in a sketch all together, it'd be really impressive. Imagine the humor.:smile:

What's so impressive? They just pre-recorded the lyrics, then Oz and two other puppeteers lip-synched to them. (That's how they do all songs with multiple Muppets performed by the same person. When speaking is concerned, another puppeteer does the character, and the real performer dubs the voice in later.)

Sorry to take all the mystique out of this subject. :wink:
