They don't like to use minor characters anymore, and those skits weren't for younger kids, they were for older kids.

"The guy" is commonly known as Fat Blue and performed by the versatile Jerry Nelson. The character originally developed out of an Anything Muppet design. He was also referred to as Mr. Johnson.

You must be referring to Season 31 of Noggin. He was not used at all last season, or the season before. I think he may have been used once in Season 32, but they would never use him anymore.

That's really sad. Those sketches were always among my favorite parts of Sesame Street. :frown:

He was used in the Elmo's world about "Food"

He'd be ideal to use in a Global Grover Segment about Foods around the world, hint hint...

I actually never thought of using him in Global Grover! I don't know if it would work, but yes, they could!

I also believe he was also referred to as Fred. LOL, I thought that Fat Blue was that Anything Muppet.
