Greetings from the Count! Got a few questions for those who can help me out. Went to www.imdb.com and searched for "The Jim Henson Hour" and got the following cast listings. If you can, please help me out by answering these questions.
1 Are these actual Muppet characters that appeared in JHH?
2 If so, who were they? By that, please describe what the character either looked like or what that character's personality was like and/or in which episode they appeared.
Here's the list of characters:


Chip

Fern
JoJo
Miss Belle
Camille Bonora

Laughing Boy
Rickey Boyd

Vicky
Colleen Barker
Fran Brill

Ace Yu
Kevin Clash

Oznog
Dave Goelz

Timrek
Bugsy Them
Jim Henson

The Storyteller
John Hurt

Quacker
Rob Mills (I)

Jobeth Garf Toohoo
Bubba the Bartender
Jerry Nelson

Anthony
Zsa Zsa Pork Mustard
Dan Redican

Scruffy
Gord Robertson

Mad Dog
Steve Whitmire




Were any characters from JHH performed by the following Muppeteers? If so, what are the names of the characters portrayed by these performers and who were those characters?
Brian Henson (I)
Richard Hunt (I)
Rick Lyon (I)
Bob Stutt

Please answer my burning questions quickly, cause I'd rully like to add these to my master Muppet Listings if validated. Thanks for your help and have a good weekend.

I think most of these characters are from Dog City...

However, Vicki was the red-headed, somewhat level-headed person backstage. I don't remember too much of her, as I missed a lot of these episodes the first time around.

Of course, the Storyteller, is...well, you know! The Storyteller!
