Inspired by TV Squad’s The Five: The other Muppets.
- The Newsman
- Nigel
- Uncle Deadly
- Pops the Doorman
- Camilla the Chicken
Accident and pun-prone anchorman for the Muppet News Flash.
Often overlooked conductor of the pit orchestra, but he was the host of the original pilot.
The horror-themed, Vincent Price look-a-like Muppet.
Really only a regular in the fifth season, he’s the male equivalent of the first season’s Hilda. Related to Beauregard and George the Janitor in the pantheon of backstage-only Muppets.
Like Lew Zealand’s fish, Gonzo’s chickens, especially Camilla, are often overlooked.
There you have it. Five forgotten/overlooked Muppets.
Happy Friday!
Oh, and if you didn’t already know, Jim Henson Company is pursuing a late-night talk show idea: Late Night Buffet.
