The Letter L
I heard the little L/Let out a "luh, luh, luh"/The little Rebel L/He cried "luh, luh, luh"
Lew Zealand
Lew Zealand is a very strange fellow.
For whatever reason a regular on The Muppet Show, Lew's act was that of a boomerang fish thrower, which is exactly what it sounds like. He throws fish and they come back to him. While boomerang fish throwing might seem a little difficult, Zealand simply explains "You gotta have sole. And if you can't get sole, use halibut."
Once he did this thing here:
Aaaaand that's all I have to say about Lew Zealand!
Link Hogthrob
According to Brian Henson, "As a kid, whenever my dad did some stereotypical fatherly chore, like carving the Thanskgiving turkey, that would be the voice he would use. I guess when the character of this pompus, not-too-bright pig came along, he figured well that voice would fit just perfectly."
The fearless captain of the Swinetrek, Link Hogthrob was the blonde, cleft-chinned, dim-witted star of Pigs In Space, a great recurring Muppet Show sketch about pigs. In space. Frequently his Shatnerian machismo would be a source of conflict between him and First Mate Piggy.
Outside of the Swinetrek, Hogthrob carried his Shatner parody to singing as well performing such songs as "Sea Chantey," a solo on the song "Sonny Boy", and the awesome "I Talk to the Trees." Later on, Hogthrob would co-star with Fozzie Bear on the equally great "Bear On Patrol," where he portrays the Police Chief to Fozzie's Patrol Bear. Link's own idiocy would commonly cause harm to Patrol Bear. And that was it. A bear in police uniform couldn't get his job done and would get hurt. That was every episode of "Bear On Patrol" and it was amazing.
Lefty
pssst
hey mac
you wanna buy this post?
A great salesman, Lefty's decked in a trenchcoat, usually selling Ernie some letter, number, or object. Actually he usually failed in his endeavors so he wasn't that great a salesman.
Lefty is very shady. He's like some kind of a black market Q salesman or something.
shhhhh
now buy the post and take it home tonight.
