    It's a very close thing, but Beaker just wins out over Animal.

    Miss Piggy followed by Statler and Waldorf

    Oh, totally Rizzo the Rat. 2nd place belonging to Gonzo, of course. That rat...he's really got it together. The rat is one cool cat who knows where it's at. And Gonzo played Charles Dickens. I mean, that's just awesome.:cool:

    Pepe (okay? ;) ), Rizzo, Gonzo and Miss Piggy are my top muppets. But to be honest, they're all great :)

    It is what it's.

    Gucci, the Cookie Monster was not in fact a muppet but a member of the sesame street cast. True, both were made by Jim Henson but (unfortunately, cos I loved the cookie monster too) he was a member of Sesame Street!
    As for Bono, we all know he's a muppet!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 599 ✭✭✭ambasite


    Guy Smiley from SS - he's the head off Mick McCarty..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,815 ✭✭✭✭po0k


    Bobo the Bear because he's a role-model of sorts in my life.
    He's content, he does his bit in this life and will tolerate a certain level of annoyance but when he reaches his limit his reprise is swift and brutal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,815 ✭✭✭✭po0k


    Btw, Swedish Chef and Animal were damn close too.

    You shove as many as possible into your mouth at once, spilling large bikkie bits all over the place because you don't actually have an oesophasus, while going "Om Nyom, Me Loooove Cookies" loudly?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,283 ✭✭✭gucci


    yeah pretty much so,but i can do it with anything not just cookies,im bringing the whole thing to a new level,can be done with beer,spuds,crackers,toast,you name it!!
