How has nobody said Statler and Waldorf, yet? Easily the best.

[–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 3 points 7 hours ago

Pilot from Farscape

[–] luthis@lemmy.nz 4 points 9 hours ago

It's hard to pick a favorite, but the Swedish chef was always a laugh

[–] whotookkarl@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 7 hours ago

Sweetums & Rowlf

[–] Apeman42@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

Dr Teeth and the Electric Mayhem, as a whole.

I guess within the band, my ranking would go:

  • Dr Teeth
  • Animal
  • Janice
  • Zoot
  • Floyd
  • Lips

Miss Piggie is pure comedy gold. Everything she does is hilarious.

That or Tim Curry

[–] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

TIL Tim Curry is a Muppet.

Beaker and Swedish Chef, dead heat.

[–] ClownStatue@piefed.social 4 points 12 hours ago

Beaker & Professor Honeydew.

Waldorf and Statler are probably runners up

[–] Brad@beehaw.org 6 points 13 hours ago

When I was a kid, it was Animal.

Now that I'm an adult and a parent, it's Kermit.

Not one muppet, but this exchange:

Gonzo: "It just feels weird."

Rizzo: "That Mr Arrow is dead?"

Gonzo: "Yeah, that. And my pants are filled with starfish."

Rizzo: "...you and your hobbies!"

Beaker always gets a laugh out of me, but his range is obviously limited lol I think miss piggy is hilarious too!

[–] BowserBasher@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

Animal.

I know he won’t be top of many people’s lists of favourite but he’s always been the one I liked. Might not be the funniest or have many lines in any of the shows or films but there’s just something I like about him.

[–] random_character_a@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago

I know too many Miss Piggies irl, so beaker all the way, even though character is a bit simple

[–] statler_waldorf@sopuli.xyz 5 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Me

[–] The_Che_Banana@beehaw.org 2 points 14 hours ago

Both of you

[–] MajorMajormajormajor@lemmy.ca 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Maybe take the hand out of your butt and you'll feel better? Has to be uncomfortable having that there 24/7.

[–] yarrage@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 hours ago

You tried.
