Ernie Question

[matthewxel]

Wasn't based on Moldy Hay from "Sam and Friends"?

You know, the farmer of Sam and Friends?

If anyone knows please tell me.

I thought about this myself, the original Ernie muppet does resemble alot of Moldy Hay. Who knows? I know Prairie Dawn was based on Happy Girl from Ed Sullivan, as was Grover from a brown/green monster.
