Is Big Bird A Muppet?


Recommended Posts

I thought Muppets was the name of the show with Gonzo and Ms. Piggy , etc. Big Bird is on Sesame Street, so how could he be a muppet?And Big Bird is a person in a costume.

Big Bird is not a muppet.

Miss Piggy, Gonzo, Kermit, Animal etc. are muppets where as Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch, Elmo etc. are from Sesame Street.

They are completely different.

Five years later, Spinney was back on TV playing various sidekicks to Bozo the Clown. He also did puppet shows. One day, after a performance where everything went wrong, Muppet creator Jim Henson approached and said he liked what Spinney had tried to do.

"He said, 'Why don't you come down to New York and talk about the Muppets... I have some characters I want to build. One is a tall, funny-looking bird and the other's going to be this grouchy character who's going to live in a pile of trash in the gutter.'"
