Eric Jacobson: This is something that Grover that I watched when I was a kid had, but along the way, his hands got armatured. So they were just kinda stiff, so you could pose his fingers and wrap his hands around props and whatnot. And I think that's why they did it. But originally they were floppy like this, and we've gone back to making them floppy again which I love.
Grover as he flops his fingers: I love it! I can do this all day.

And they're so dedicated to persevering Jim's work as faithfully and as reverently as they can. It's remarkable, you know.
