Heh, I preferred Oscar .... and the Cookie Monster! Still, as a child of the late 70's I definitely appreciated this. Thanks.

That's cool. I have no idea why but I always pictured the person doing the voice as female.
|
Oscar was actually played by the same actor!

I've always been fascinated with the Henson Company. Carol Spinney did a fantastic jobas big bird. Noel MacNeal works a similar type of puppet by
playing BEAR, in Bear in the big blue house. Very cool.
If I had to do it all over again, I'd more than likely try to work in Henson Studios. Very fascinating. Genius actually.

If anyone thinks otherwise, show them Farscape. Truly amazing puppetry on that show. Art even. The things they did on that show still amaze me because
they really created an entirely new universe and merged both puppets and people seamlessly.
