Now that you mention it, he does kinda look like Beaker. Beaker was the shits. I'd type a quote from him, but I'm not sure which letters to use.<P>------------------

For some reason...whenever anyone mentions the muppets, I can't get the image of the Swedish chef out of my head. <P>I remember thinking that the Muppet Mystery movie was great. Or was it the Christmas Caper? The one where Animal bites through the bars. Where any of the recent ones any funny at all? Muppets in Space and Muppets on TReasure Island or whatever....I used to like the little wacky bastards.<P>------------------

I miss the Muppet Show every night... I watched it religiously when I was little. Although, I do have to say that I always resented Big Bird and the Sesame Street gang sit-ins... I KNOW they were Muppets too, but I always wanted to yell, "Get back on your OWN show! I watch you in the morning to learn, I don't wanna watch you in the evening while I'm being entertained!" <P>And I dunno... The big blue eagle scared me. A lot. My absolute favorites were the two old guys. The ones that bitch about eeeeverything and make fun of everyone? Yea. They were boss.

Damn Sagi how do you remeber all this stuff?? Maybe he didn't have a british accent, his dialect was just more snooty than the other muppets. Those two guys in the balcony were funny. I really liked um what was his name, the Orange guy who didn't speak right, his friened was the scientist guy.. hmm<P>-jen *'s favorite Christmas album is the Muppet Christmas with John Denver* <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/biggrin.gif"><p>[This message has been edited by violentmae (edited 06-15-2001).]

Well, to be precise it was PROFESSOR Bunson Honeydew, not Doctor. Beyond that, I dunno.<P> "I can rip and tear, but never repair"

Sam had more of a Walter Cronkite voice, if I recall correctly.
