Animal has ALWAYS been my favorite (ever since I saw the very first Muppet show "live", honestly). The whole Electric Mayhem rocks (Janice is awesome too!). I have a HUGE soft spot in my heart for Rolph. In fact, I always wanted to own the puppet version (I dreamed of putting him out (under a concealed stage of course) to "perform" for people coming to the house for Halloween. GOD I was lame in elementary school. Swedish Chef also rocks bigtime. However, I never really got into Gonzo. That's the one place where we split (I would pick Grover over Gonzo personally).
