A few clarifications if you don't mind, Count:

1. The Ingrid from "I is for Ingrid" was a human girl, not a Muppet, so I think you could point that out on your list.

2. Mobity Mosely was never on SS, but only on the "Roosevelt Franklin Sings" record album, where he was performed by Matt Robinson, so I think you should remove him from the list.

3. I believe Kevin Kline played Nick Chicken, so you could point that out on your list.

Here are some more descriptions:

The Muppet Punk Band: They are either tan or flesh-colored, with beak-like mouths, kinda like the Frackles. When we first see them in the Debbie Harry episode, they have wild dark hair, sunglasses, black jackets with campaign-type buttons, and either white shirts and neckties or T-shirts. The second time we see them, at the end, they have punk get-ups with multicolored hair and punk hairstyles, sunglasses, pierced body parts, etc. Hope this is a good description.

The Elves: You should make a clarification because they have names. First, there's Squeaky, who's the little brown AM with black hair, a big black beard and moustache, a big round pink nose, a red "Santa" hat with a green bobble at the end, a striped shirt, and a vest. Then there's Sneaky, who's the little pink AM with a big round blue nose, light brown (I think) hair, a big light brown beard and moustache, light brown eyebrows, and a hat and clothes basically the same as Squeaky. Finally, there's Leaky, who's the little orange AM with a big light blue nose, orange hair, a big orange beard and moustache, and a hat and clothes basically the same as the other two. Leaky's hat, by the way covers up his eyes so we can't see them.

Fenwick: He's the tall orange AM with orange fur on his face, head, and body, and he has big black eyebrows, kinda like Oscar or Bert, yellow (I think) eyes, a big orange nose (similar to Bert's), and orange horns on his head.

Now here are two other characters you should include:

The Shoemaker: He's the lavender hand-and-rod AM with yellow hair, a big yellow moustache, yellow eyebrows, and a nightcap and nightshirt.

The Shoemaker's Wife: She's the tall orange AM with orange (I think) eyelids, a red (I think) nose shaped similar to Telly's, only smaller, long, curly dark brown hair, and a night shirt and a "female" nightcap.

Hope these descriptions help!

BlueAM, thanks for consistently plugging away at these vonderful descriptions for me. Now to address your suggestions.
1 Now that I know that there are three differently named elves as part of the Elves from the Elves and the Shoemaker, they will be duely distinguished.
2 The Shoemaker and his wife will be also duely added as two separate entries.
3 If you're sure that Kevin Kline portrayed Nick Chicken, then that actor's name will be duely added after the comma following the designation of the Henson production from which that character came from.
4 If you're sure that Ingrid from I is for Ingrid from the sketch where many SS characters appeared in the Alphabet Names on the Street segment is indeed a live girl, then it will be duely noted in her entry by the placement of a comma after the designation of the Henson production from which I got the character in question.
5 As for Mobity Mosley, not sure that I can convincingly argue his inclusion to you. His name was supplied by ssetta, a fellow forum member, when I asked for the names of Roosevelt Franklin's friends. So I feel that I should honor her contribution to my listings. Secondly, since the character in question did at least have a spoken part if even only on the record, this confirms that the character exists at least in the universe of recorded Muppet characters who have been voiced in the entirety of the existence of the Muppet universe. The only example I can come up that best illustrates this point is the Androoze Sisters who only appeared in name on the record "Everybody's Record" and in voice on the same record, and yet they appeared as distinguishible characters in the segment where they sang "Everybody's Song" and are distinct from the Oinker Sisters.
Hope this helps clear up some lingering confusion, thanks for the comments, and have a good night.
