Remembering Richard Hunt

If you are refering to these people, then yes.

When I think Richard Hunt, I remember his love for music. I saw this segment the other day while watching an old episode of SS and found myself wondering, "How much fun did Jim and Richard have with this?!"

I hava favorite Jim/Richard moment, too! Kermit and Scooter were central in the backstage scenes of the Julie Andrews episode of the Muppet Show, y'know, the one with the real cow? I love the first backstage scene when Scooter asks the cow, "Who do you belong to?" This is actually another scene:

Apparently, my personal favorites from Muppets are usually outrageous,--not in a bad way though. I define Outrageousness for the Muppets as 'something very surprising it renders you speechless!' kinda way. This is a perfect example because...there's a real cow!!! Whose crazy-go-nuts idea was it?!?

One of my favorite Jim/Richard moments are the Forgetful Jones sketches where Kermit is directing and Forgetful forgets his lines. They're real funny.

Oh yes! "Oklahoma" was one of my favorites as a kid.

I'm now gonna switch it up a little. One of my favorite Jerry/Richard moments is those hilarious Two-Headed Monster! Observe:

Two heads are truly better than one, as I've heard both puppeteers came up with the idea of them!

Here's another personal favorite from Jerry/Richard:

This is cool, a thread dedicated to Richard Hunt. I can certainly say that Richard is probably one of my all time favorite Muppeteers. Especially his loud Brooklyn man voice "YO BUZZARD BEAK! WHERE'S MY RENT MONEY"? _Gonzo's Landlord on Gonzo Presents Muppet Weird Stuff. I remember hearing that Richard Hunt on the set was the life of the party and probably one of the wackiest performers The Muppets ever had.

I love when Richard Hunt talks about how Junior Gorg really feels about the Fraggles. lol
