I count things for a living. A couple times of year I throw out the number with and 'Ah, Ah, Ah' after it. It's always a hit.

Some of the characters Jerry Nelson performed:

-The Count
-Floyd (The Electric Mayhem)
-Robin
-Herry Monster
-The Amazing Mumford
-Sherlock Hemlock
-Mr. Snuffleupagus (1970s only)
-1/2 of the Two-Headed Monster
-Frazzle
-Dr. Julius Strangepork
-Lew Zealand
-Camilla
-Emmett Otter
-Gobo Fraggle
-Pa Gorg
-The Trash Heap
-The Muppet Show Announcer

An incredible talent and an absolutely extraordinary loss - he was one of the "big four" Muppet performers - alongside Jim Henson, Frank Oz and Richard Hunt. Only Frank Oz is still alive.

How can you not have NIGHT WATCH listed there. Not only will this film be Lions Gate Films biggest moneymaker to date, but it'll prove to be this years Fellowship Of The Rings... YES, NIGHT WATCH looks THAT good.
