Just rewatched “Magic Voyage of Sinbad (He’s NOT Sinbad!)” and I had completely forgotten about Joel’s “Channel Cat” puppet which he plays with (and GPC tries to eat) during the letters segment.
That got me thinking about all the wonderful “soft puppets” which have appeared on the show!
Joey the Lemur!
Channel Cat!
Nummymuffincoocoolbutter!
The creepy giant Richard Kiel head from the WOFS Tour!
The Lady of the Deep!
The Brain from the 30th Ann. Tour!
And now, creepy creepy Baby Munchie.
Gooseo and Enoch & The Demon Dogs have already been mentioned, they’re favorites. As is Dr. St. Phibes’ Lady of the Deep. And I too covet Crow’s Chicken Puppet.
What about the fish puppet that confused and scared Tom and Crow because they couldn’t comprehend what was going on? How does it know our names? And how is Joel doing that?
ETA: Oh. That’s Channel Cat, short for catfish. Got it. Never mind.
