Scooter was my number one when I was a kid. Dude was the best right hand man a frog could ask for.
I think Statler and Waldorf are up there, i'm counting them as one entity.
They are one entity.
Beaker was my favorite. His goofy face was so funny, but I also had trouble with my speech as a kid, only my mom could understand me, so maybe I identified with Beakerβs βmeepβ language.
Same, I still love Beaker to this day.
Yeah, Beaker has always been the most endearing to me.
Statler & Waldorf
If this comment were any more stripped down, I'd stick a dollar bill in it!

Barkley and Animal are probably my all time favorites, but I have had a few over the years.
When I was young it was Snuffy. I am old enough that it was when everyone thought he was Bird's imagination, and I always felt invisible to my parents. Then as I got older it became Gonzo who was the weird freak, like I was... but his attraction to Piggy always skeeved me out.
The Count. Ah, ah, ah, ah!
Zero points, hehehe. No count in the Muppet Show.
As part of the muppet extended universe he, ah, counts.
A less-known and less horror-movie centric bit of vampire canon is that they suffer from arithmomania, a form of obsessive-compulsive disorder thatΒ presents itself as a need to count objects in your surroundings.Β This crossed even cultural boundaries, with tales of number-crunching Counts existing from Slavic lore all the way to the ChineseΒ jiangshi.
As the lore goes, the vampires could be distracted from your pulsing, delectable carotids by a surplus of something in the surroundings that demanded to be counted. Holes in a fishing net, seed scattered at the door, Chinese folklore even recommended tossing out a handful of rice grains in front of a vampire as a functional defense against getting feasted on.
One! One grain of rice!
I first learned this bit of vampire lore from an episode of X-Files where they used a box of paperclips to escape a vampiric Patrick Renna.
The crummy direct to video sequel to Dracula 2000 totally endeared itself to me by including the vampiric OCD in its narrative. As far as I know, it and Sesame Street are the only film/tv media to do so. An unlikely club.
I know, but at least a Muppet from Sesame Street.
Statler and Waldorf
Why, Miss Piggy of course.
I couldn't believe I had to scroll all the way down to see the main star of the show
