I was once a Muppet puppeteer, you all can talk to me here. I never performed any of the major characters though, I was only a background guy.
Bittersweet. It was great to work with the Muppets, of course. But being a pro puppeteer is less than ideal, unless you're one of the main puppeteers. Otherwise, the jobs are few & far between.
Who did you play and what seasons did you work there for?

I only worked on 'Muppets From Space.' I don't know the puppet's name, but he had a cone-shaped head with no nose, prominent teeth & big bulgy eyes. Anyone know the name of this character?

I don't know, but I do know exactly who you mean! I always wondered who he was, and what he was doing there, because he always intrigued me. Especially in the camera-panning through the crowd scene.
