characters who recited the alphabet

[The Count]

Hey MuppetDude... Just checking, are those names correct?
Cause I have Alterrian and Nancy as entries in the list stemming from previous discussions on this classic segment.
If these are correct, then should Alterrian and Nancy be eliminated and replaced with Akelstan and Nat?
And is Ursula an AM kid? Thought she was a real kid.

Oh well, hope to hear from you soon.

I can verify having the episode on tape and watched in dozens of times:


N is Nancy - it was an Asian girl sitting next to Oscar's purple trunk next to her trash can.

U is Ursula - it's a purple Anything Muppet female - I'm pretty sure it's Fran Brill too.

I always loved the two anything muppets dressed like aliens- the pink one with purple hair and a purple collar done by Jim, the green one with blue hair performed by Frank, who take turns reciting the alphabet, until they get to V and recite them together. In the background, Joe Raposo is playing notes on a Moog synthesizer (state of the art back then) while his friend Danny Epstein
is banging on all sorts of percussion.

This clip is on the 1973 premiere episode

actually, I was only asking about characters who said the alphabet in the fourth season premier, not every character who has ever said the alphabet.

 

[The Count]

Thanks for coming and helping out Jeffkjoe. So N is Nancy, and U is Ursula an AM kid.
What about A? Is it Akelstan or Alterrian?
Hope to hear from you soon and have a good day.

From what I heard, it's pronounced "Akelstan"; he also appears in show #198, and that's what Oscar calls him.

prioity off a Miller Beer Commercial.

this was an 80's skit.2 AM monsters who were surgens come to their break time. and while I can't remember the whol song, they start singing when it's time to relax and then start saying the alphabet. including the guy they were operating on. finally after their break was through 1 of the doctors say, when it's your time to relax make it alphabet time. stupid but funny.
