I have really strong opinions about what is and isn't a Muppet. Whenever I tell people that they ask me about all these muppet-adjacent characters like "oh what about the vampire from sesame street, does he count?"
One can argue Vincent Price, also, as he appeared on the Muppet Show. As did Moominschantz(sp,) Ray Clark, Linda Ronstadt, Harvey Korman, and Edgar Bergen.
One can argue that they are NOT muppets, because they could move about on their own, but of course, Moominschantz cannot, so... is John Cleese a muppet?
Alice Cooper, obviously, is a Muppet, as he can transform into a huge version of himself on stage.
I should also mention that C3PO, Luke Skywalker, and R2D2 are muppets, also. I'm FAIRLY sure Chewbacca also appeared in that episode, but it's been a while.
@FiXato @monorail Yes, and Bip Bippadotta.
And the koosbanians.
