I never posted Miss Piggy is Hotlips.
(Although the Count sure does look like Count Chocula to me but I still think Count's cool). But the karate chop and the main moves/perm of Piggy were done earlier Hotlips.


All hail to the Muppet king. The crown is all yours dude. I conceed you the title.








P.S. the earlier Miss Piggy is a different version than the later Hotlips one and yes the earlier version is more like Peggy Lee.
It's later that she does the Lorretta Swift moves and gets the Swift perm.

No, I still think that the Count was created as a Pun, a play on words if you will.

Jerry Nelson based his voice on the old Dracula movie starring Bella Legosi. Only he caracturized it. Same thing as the VO on the Count Chocula commercials.
