Oh, so close. You're right, though, William... those were good directions by MBM!

Thanks, heralde. That's interesting. I hadn't heard that before.

Oh. Well I'm sure Stevie would know where he was. I thought Dave was into the puppet building for Sesame Street, or at least he used to be. I dunno.

Yeah, that's why Steve doesn't do anything besides Ernie, Heralde. I think he started on Sesame Street, but Jim pulled him out.

So we do, at least thirty pages' worth. Richard is quite the popular one these days...wonder if Steve's going to get jealous?

I did notice that Dave was the only principal Muppeteer who didn't work on Sesame Street, and by the same token, Frank Oz is the only one who didn't work on Fraggle Rock. Jim, Jerry, Richard and Steve, however, did work on all of the Big Three shows.

Well MBM, Steve originally auditioned for Sesame Street, but Jim felt he was not ready yet to be on that show. So a couple of years later, he got his training on the Muppet show.

Dave was on season 25th(The 93-94) of Sesame Street, which was Steve's first, but other than that, he has not been on the show. I thine he made puppets for the Muppet show in the early days though.

It is amazing how quickly we passed up SWAEHB in here.

So, was Dave not on Sesame Street (except for the one season) so that he could be more available, or did he not like Sesame Street that much?

Probably so he could be more available. Richard was most likely not on Fraggle Rock too regularly because all the other main Muppeteers had main Fraggles, and someone had to work on Sesame Street.

Thanks, heralde! That makes sense. I have heard that about Richard, too. Which I think was too bad, because I do wish he could've been on Fraggle Rock more regularly... doing more random characters as well. Can't have it all though, huh?

It's interesting that Richard played a lot of "guest star" characters on Fraggle Rock that interacted with Wembley: The Magical Spider-Fly, The Wizard, The Mean Genie, and Mudwell the Mudbunny.

Well, Wembley was the type of character Richard would like.

Yeah, we surpassed Swaehb a while back, but it's awesome! Beau tried a frantic attempt to induce more posts last night or this morning, but that's all that's been going on there for the last month.
