Ranking Of The 25 Best Muppets, According To Listeners
See BIG BIRD deserves a higher ranking.... stumbled across this TV station promo in my internet wanderings today. Forgot Morgan Freeman was part of the Electric Factory--- he's still rocking today.

I read that survey. My favorite Muppet is the Divine Swine, Miss Piggy. Elmo is next. Very simple & childlike.
But my all time fav is Mokie, from Fraggle Rock. A free spirit. Like a chil hippy-dippy.

My favorites are Burt & Ernie.
I heard they're gay.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I was a Fraggle Rock person. Their band was the truth.

Loved the Fraggles!
Mokie was Da Bomb! I actually have my own Mokie stuffed doll. And their album.
Loved the Trash Heap also. She was cool - and when she sang her theme song, it was coolest thing!
