2019-08-17 22:38:26Happy birthday to one of my personal heroes Richard Hunt (August 17, 1951 - January 7, 1992). The openly gay Muppeteer would’ve been 68 today. Hunt was among the earliest puppeteers hired by Jim Henson to perform on SESAME STREET and he subsequently worked on other Henson projects, including THE MUPPET SHOW and FRAGGLE ROCK. Scooter, Statler, Janice, Beaker and Sweetums are just a few of his most beloved characters. Hunt was only 40 years old when he died of AIDS-related illness on January 7, 1992. #richardhunt #muppets #personalhero

2019-08-17 16:34:57A birthday tribute in honor of the late, great Muppet performer Richard Hunt. Millions of kids were entertained and taught by him on "Sesame Street" through his characters such as exasperated Don Music, Forgetful Jones, bovine diva Gladys the Cow, Biff's silent construction worker partner Sully, the "up-turned horns" half of the Two-Headed Monster, and operatic bird Placido Flamingo. Millions of adults (and kids) were entertained on "The Muppet Show" by his characters eager Scooter, old codger Statler, groovy guitarist Janice, lovable ogre Sweetums, and the hapless Beaker. And he brought his magic and energy to "Fraggle Rock" as the remote control voice-and-head performer of Junior Gorg, gray Gunge who was one of the Trash Heap's two little shills, and countless other Muppets on all of these shows and other Muppet productions over so many years. He was legendary in the Muppet world for his energy and exuberance. The Muppets wouldn't have been the same without his wonderful contributions. He was taken from this world way too soon back in 1992, but his gift will forever live on through his performances in DVDs, tapes, videos, and clips of his memorable characters and magic. Bless you, Richard. - - #richardhunt #muppets #muppet #jimhenson #themuppetshow #scootermuppet #statlerandwaldorf #janicethemuppet #janicemuppet #floydandjanice #nursejanice #veterinarianshospital #beaker #beakermuppet #beakerthemuppet #sweetums #sesamestreet #donmusic #forgetfuljones #gladysthecow #placidoflamingo #placidodomingo #twoheadedmonster #fragglerock #juniorgorg #gunge #philoandgunge #muppeteer #muppetperformers #80skids
