who is your favorite muppet?
Beaker. Pure chaos. 10/10
Difficult choice. I like Fozzie’s bad joke schtick, and Statler & Waldorf are classic, but I think my heart truly belongs to Dr. Teeth and by extension all of The Electric Mayhem.
Also leading the Frog Resistance. :)

Lew Zealand’s act involves boomerang fish: "I throw them away, and they come back to me!" His first appearance was in episode 310 of The Muppet Show, where his timely boomerang fish throwing saved Kermit from being tricked into a real marriage during Miss Piggy's sleuthfully-designed "wedding sketch."

I learned all about spatial relations from Grover. He nailed the near-far conundrum.
Im not a fighter, I’m a Grover.
Pepe. The whole concept of a prawn Muppet is amazing.
Animal for sure. But also really the entire band.
Although a large part of that comes from the best Robot Chicken Sketch in their entire series…

Are we talking muppet muppets? Or can we go all old fashioned?
If so my choice is Big Bird.
