Favorite Underrepresented Muppet?

[kniedzw]

I'm sort of in an odd mood, so here's an odd sort of question.

Everyone thinks of a particular muppet when they think of Jim Henson. Generally, it's someone like Kermit, Miss Piggy, Oscar the Grouch, or Bert (or Ernie). ...but most of us who grew up with them have a particular oddball favorite. Perhaps it's the Honkers from Sesame Street.

Ooo! Oooo! No one's mentioned mine yet! It's the baby muppets. NOT Muppet Babies (baby Kermit, baby Piggy, etc), but the muppets that were supposed to be little infants. They appeared from time to time in the musical numbers, usually as some sort of chorus. I've done a few Google image searches, and I can't find any evidence of them. Does anyone else remember the baby muppets?

Yes. You are not alone. I too remember them.

Check out the top of this page. The Kermitage is great. :)

Wow. I did not know about the Kermitage. I don't think that anything could possibly warm my little gen x heart more than seeing those baby muppets again. Thanks, and thanks for this thread!
