Sesame Street Season 35 New Characters

[Drtooth]

1 Ming Peacock, Muppet character right?
If so, she'll be added.
2 Trash Gordon, Gordon as a superhero character right?
If so, then he'll be added....
4 Were there no names for the two Anything Muppets who sang backup for BB King?
Do you guys agree that these two should be added as an entry as "BB King's Backup Singers"?
5 The Tree from The Street We Live On, and the Bathtub from Elmo's World.
Are these Muppet characters or not?
When you say that they had CGI attachments, what were these?....
9 The Stinky Cheese Guys.
If you could, please provide descripts of what these characters looked like.
Please post your replies here. Thanks for your help and I hope to hear from you guys soon.

Okay... Ming was indeed a Muppet Peacock. i think he had real peacock tail feathers (much like Big bird has turkey feathers) By all means, add him... (he talked like Jimmy Durrante)

Trash Gordon is Gordon as a superhero in a book. He could be added too.

The "Back up singers" had no names, nor were they really back up singers. more like there to demonstrait beards and lack of them with no letter B. I'd say they were more like "Two Bearded AM's" if you want a really specific name.

The Tree was CGI, the bathtub was a muppet.

Stinky Cheese guys... so glad you asked! I was about to tell them to you..

3 cheese guys from the planet gorgonzola... from screen left to right, I'll tell you about them.

Left cheese: A large wheel of cheese with a red wax outside. he was horizontal (as in he was flat on top and bottom, and the round part was in the middle, with the roundness going horizontally) He had eyes and a nose (really hard to tell what kinds of eyes, but to my recallection oval and sleepy looking, his nose was a small circle same color as his wax skin) He had long arms which were probably made of wire with hands at the end, but no legs, and he hovered around.

Middle cheese: Almost exactly like the first one, but orange/yellow wax for skin.

Right cheese: The iconographic "Swiss cheese wedge"/// triangular. had eyes (no nose I think) and same arms as the other two, also hovered without legs.

They were seen mostly from the back, but they did breiefly face the camera as they flew off the screen.

Thanks Drtooth.
Ming Peacock will be added.
Trash Gordon will be added.
The Stinky Cheese Guys will be added.

The Tree will be booted.
Should the Bathtub be added then?

And if you could help answer the other questions from today's episode with Natalie Portman I'd thank you even more.

 

[Drtooth]

I'd have to see the episode again tomorrow to give you the most accurate details, but I can tell you about the baker...

He's a fat blue AM muppet with black/grey/white hair (meaning his hair is black with swirls of grey and white hairs... to give it a more authentic look) he also has a handlebar mustache with the same black grey white hair streaks. He has a small circular orange nose, and he wear the traditional baker smock and chef's hat. he also speaks with a bad, stereotypical French accent...

 

[The Count]

O, zo vouz noticed zat too? Well, I'll wait till tomorrow for these descripts and ask again about the new ones from Episode 5.
That's just what I'm calling them to know where I'm at during the season, since I don't know what the episode's real numbers are.

Okay... something odd happened. instead of showing the episode with the Baker Butcher and Candlestick maker, they showed the one about Curly disliking porridge instead. So, I'll have to wait some more for that episode. Sorry.

As for today's episode:

Cinderella. I Pinkish, lavendarish AM with a big round face, live hands (in other words, the performers wore gloves to similate real hands) sleepy eyes (sort of like Big Bird's, but smaller and flatter), an orangeish yellow nose, long blonde hair and she wore peasant clothing, dirty and dingy. (it was sort of German looking peasant clothing, brown and white, with a handkerchief in her hair) She turned into a chicken, different from the normal SS chicken. Like a smaller white chicken with large eyes, still wearing the peasant clothing. As she turned back, she wore a Pink Dress and tiara.

Fairy Godmother was a human, portayed by acress Andrea Martin (famous for being Wanda the word fairy and the cartoon voices on Elmo's world). She wore a tiara, a yellow dress shirt, and a black dress. She had large pink Butterfly like wings. Her wand wass sort of like a long staff with a circle at the top, it was "gold" and covered with glitter.

Gertrude I don't remember (I must have been out of the room at the time)

The Assistant to Ernie King Cole was a lavandar AM (different from cinderella... he had rod hands, I believe). He had the same sleepy eys most AM's have, and he wore royal clothing (all poofy). he had a page boy hair cut (blondish... golden) and a large red nose... shaped like an ice cream cone (with the ice cream on it) upside down.

The Bike was a small bike puppet (controoled with rods). It was a girl's bike, and judt under the handle bars she had Muppet eyes and a mouth (controlled by the rods) this "head" was pink"


The Bike Helmet was a blue bike helmet with eyes on the front, and a mouth coming out of the bottom (where the head goes)... he hovered without legs nor arms.

The Space monkey was a reused Monkey puppet (Think davey and Joey).

There were 2 sets of rotten bananas (I saw them briefly, but I can describe as best I can). They weren't single bananas, but rather monster like creatures made up of a bunch of bananas.

One was verticle (like a bunch ob bananas standing up) with muppet eyes and a little mouth under them.

The other was horizontal, bananas laying on the floor. He had eyes in the middle of one banana, and his mouth was a banana that lifted up and down, like a mouth opening and cloising. Like if Pac Man was made out of Bananas.

Both of them were a grimey looking swirl of green, brown and black.

Thanks Drtooth. Since I haven't seen Episode 4059, Curly Dislikes Porridge, I can't ask about characters from that episode cause I don't have any to ask about. So just keep those under your hat for the time being. As for the characters from Episode 4060, I can wait as well especially since these episodes will get repeated during the summer.

As for the characters from Episode 4061...
Andrea Martin is more famous for something that goes further back in TV land chronology. She was one of the stars of Second City TV (SCTV) Toronto. It was this show that gave us the great talents of John Candy, Dave Thomas, Joe Flaherty, Rick Moranis, Martin Short, and Catherine O'Hara, who have been all involved with the Muppets in some way or another.
OK, crunch time.
Should I add the following entries to the Muppet Listings?
The Bicycle.
The Helmet or the Bicycle Helmet.
The Rotten Bananas.
The Space Monkey.
Old King Cole's Servant.
Cinderella (SS, from Episode 4061).
Cinderella's Fairy Godmother (SS, from Episode 4061).
Please answer Yes or No for each of the characters listed above. Oh, and if you get a chance to see this one again, Gertrude appeared with Gina when she was magically transported onto the Street after Zoe's first attempt to change Cinderella back from a chicken into her old self.
Hope to hear from you soon.

Gertrude... I remeber now... She was a regular Sheep Muppet.

Anyway, I meant to speak of Andrea Martin in her roles on SS. I know she even appeared during the "Put Down the Duckie" celebrity version in that weird 1950's costume she wears.

Anyway, It's kind of funny. Her take on the Fairy Godmother was ironically not like her Wanda the Wortd Fairy character on SS, but more like the Fairy she voices (also named Wanda) on Fairly Odd parents. She even had semi-matching clothes. She just needed a pink wig, burt she had black hair in the role.

The Porridge episode, well... There wasn't really many new characters to metnion...

The Fairy tale chorus- The Current large lavandar Big Bad Wolf, the 3 little pigs hand puppets (not like the more animal looking ones) Little Bo peep (?) who looked just like I described Cinderella, only with the crook a large little bo peep bell dress, and a bonnet, and Little red riding hood, a green AM with a large red cloak and hood. I think she had a pink nose and black hair.

The Worms from Trash Gordon: Like Slimey, only different colors... like a green one, a yellow one, one that was the same as slimey, and I think a Blue one.

Plus there was a baby cookie monster, which looked like a smaller chubbier version of cookie. Wearing a baby bonnet!

 

[The Count]

Aw, me bet he look adorable. Cookie one of me favorite characters, funny in same way as Animal.
Anyway, I'll wait till I see the episode before asking about its characters. As or the ones from 4061, should all of them be added?
Waiting for a Yay or Nay answer to know for sure.

 

[Drtooth]

Axtually, Cookie monster revealed his REAL ORIGINAL NAME during the song...

Sid!

Don't know how accurate it is to the SS canon, but it's an interresting bit of trivia...
