6. Roosevelt Franklin.
Not because I have anything in common with him, but because he has the best songs. (I know, he's from Sesame street and not the muppet show, but he's still a muppet so....yeah.)

7. The one that was made of felt. It had big eyes and a funky body shape.
Oh, and the voice was weird. And it moved around kind of spastically. That one.

Sorry can't be more specific. I guess you know which one.

I'm not really that much like him, but there really aren't many female muppets. I ain't takin' Miss Piggy, either.

33. Grover was a lovable blue ... er ... something.


He was very sweet, and his voice was hilarious.

Here he is with Madeline Kahn: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsCOTsE4atQ

As for the ratio, I guess it was an all-guy operation for many years. Piggy definitely seemed like a cross-dressing male.

68. A Snowth


"The Snowths are furry pink creatures with horns and round, yellow lips who sing the "do doo do doo doo" backup vocals in versions of "Mahna Mahna" that have appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show and The Muppet Show. Both Snowths were performed simultaneously by Frank Oz, who performed one puppet on each arm; as a result, the Snowths' arms could not be controlled by arm rods and swung freely from side to side."
