Hi, everyone! I know that we've had several discussions on how the Muppet characters have evolved throughout the years whether it be their look or personalities, but what about the humans? Let's talk about how the human cast members have changed in the last 4 decades. Any pictures would be great too. Anyone wanna start?

How about Maria. She went from teenager and Librarian, to construction working, to fixing things (broken toasters), to wife and then mother. What's in store next for her, Grandmother?:confused: One day maybe.:smile:

I thought she wasa only a construction worker for one epsidoe. Was she regularly a construction worker?

I remember Gina as a teenager, back when I was a little kid. To see her now as a full-grown, professional woman is really neat.

What about their physical appearance? Hair, fashion styles, etc.?

I think the physical appearances of the humans changed not only as they aged but also with the times. Seeing as the show started in 1969 and it's now 2007, think of all the fashion trends that have come and gone. Example: In Maria's first episode I'm certain she's wearing bell bottoms. I don't think she'd be wearing those anymore!

Everybody was really hip and new york in the beginning. But Bob started wearing those sweaters at some point.
