Forgotton Muppets.

[Giar Fraggle]

I am wondering about some old SS favorites: Amazing Mumford ( a magic trick backfired and he vanished)? Don Music- ( aggrevated so often that he decided to go unseen) and Guy Smiley (in the Home for Retired Game Show hosts). Forgetful Jones is SOMEWHERE- asking "Can you tell me how to get to Sesame Street?"

I'm not sure what happened to Mumford, but here's what happened to the others.

Don Music - Was canned when it was decided that his banging his head on his piano might encourage kids to do the same.

Guy Smiley - Retired when Jim passed away, although Eric Jacobson has performed him a few times as of late--could this be a renaissance for everybody's favorite game show host?

Forgetful Jones - Retired when Richard passed away and was never seen again.

Well, hope that answers your questions.

Wayne and Wanda from the muppet show. Kermit fired them after season one.

I kind of imagined George marrying Mildred since they danced together a lot during the "At the Dance" segments.

Actually...when they used to dance, Mildred was already married. George was just her...er...dancing partner.

And, yes, I am under-appreciated!

Wait...not that Beauregard...nevermind...

You know who esle is a really forgotton Muppet?

Bad Andy.

Remember from the Dominos pizza commericals. I can easly image like if the Muppets had their own world. Muppets like Kermit and Miss.Piggy live in nice big houses, while Andy there is homeless on the streets.

I have too much time to think about odd things like that, .

Andy's status as an offical Muppet is debatable, though... See here:

In short, he was built by the Jim Henson Company, and that's about it.

Harvey Kneeslapper (Sesame Street)

He always freaked me out when I was a kid ... I had some very odd dreams about him too.


After all these years I still remember him though. He is permanently burned in my memory holding a buzzer in his hand and looking for a poor sucker to shake it.
