You might not want to believe it but many creators base their work on real people. For instance, Disney did this with many of his cartoons. And after American Graffiti came out Gary Marshall based most of the first 2 seasons of Happy Days on it. Most of the Peanut characters are Shultz. The...

I love Fozzie because he is so much like the great Milton Berle.

P.S. Actually to be honest I think the first Miss Piggy stems more from Betty Grable.:cool:

Um, not to despute whether you are the Muppet King or not (or for that matter which Muppet is suppose to contain elements of which celebrity) but in my mind a true Muppet King would never be that rabid. Jim Henson was never like that, nor were the Muppets. :)

I never posted Miss Piggy is Hotlips. (Although the Count sure does look like Count Chocula to me but I still think Count's cool). But the karate chop and the main moves/perm of Piggy were done earlier Hotlips. All hail to the Muppet king. The crown is all yours dude. I conceed you...

I think I've been beaten dude. You are clearly the Muppet king. I bow down to you...

How do you explain that key Piggy moves are the same as Hotlips? Is that just conincidence? I don't know but I wouldn't be so quick to explain it off that way. I was aware that Henson was a huge fan of Post Punk. I thought I read somewhere that he was a real hippy. Q- Is this...

Mr. Finch- As a Muppet expert can you help me to find out which celebrities are the major basis for Muppets. Like Miss Piggy does a lot of the same moves and routines as Hotlips Hollihan and The Count is a lot like Count Chocula in looks and the way he talks/laughs. But do you have any...

No, no no. The other major dracula kids character of the time is on Groovie Ghoulies. I don't know where you get this idea there were millions of Draculas on children's TV back then. Because it's just not true. The Count ain't like the Ghoulie Dracula. He's like Chocula. And he talks and...

Piggy does the karate routine note for note dude. And guests do the foreign language kissing on the arm on Piggy. And she got the perm like Swift did. I don't know dude smells like a dead skunk, looks like a dead skunk until someone comes up with the evidence of what Oz and co. were...

I don't know Piggy's Karate chop move and her thing for foreign languages and so on as well as he temper seems just like Hotlips to me. It's almost a direct copy. Piggy doesn't act anything like Peggy Lee to me. That's Hotlips all the way. This is just me but Fozzie looks a lot like Milton...

Scooter is the gofer, Radar is the company clerk who does the same kind of jobs as Radar. Scooter gets coffee and so on. Radar gets coffee and so on. Scooter handles the lineups for the shows and tells people when they are going on. Radar tells his superiors when they are wanted for surgery...

There is a debate on jumptheshark about who the muppets are suppose to be. Can you say who the major ones are and put the photo of the person by them with a short explanation. This is what I think so far- Dr. Teeth is Dr. John. Janis is Joni Mitchell Miss Piggy is Hotlips Hoolahan...
