Scooter. Not only a great Richard Hunt character, but my favorite. Janice is a second in the TMS group, followed by Statler.

As far as Sesame Street goes, I've never seen Don Music (is he the fat guy with the yellow hair?) So, I'd have to say Placido Flamingo. Love that dude! He's so cool I loved it when he sang for Yo Yo Ma.

Nope. Don Music is a yellow Muppet. Think Guy Smiley, only with wild brown hair and black-framed glasses. He played the piano and tried to compose great music, but he'd only get so far before getting frustrated, wailing "I'll never get it! Never! Never! Never!" and banging his head on the piano keys.

Nope. Never seen him. But he sounds like a great character. I do that on my brother's piano, and I don't even try to play! ... Um, nevermind.

I still love Placido Flamingo.

I just saw Of Muppets and Men, and I have to say, Scooter is still, deffenitely, my favorite Richard Hunt character. After seeing how close Richard was to the character, it makes you really start seeing a bond between the two.

I love Scooter - especially when he uses the fact that his uncle owns the muppet theatre to get what he wants out of Kermit.
