This stop-motion puppetry is an unusual format for Sesame Street.

Do you recognize the King's voice?



I first recognized it as the voice of Rowlf the Dog on The Muppet Show. As it happens, Jim Henson himself did the voices for both of those characters, as well as the court jester in King of Eight. Jim Henson provided the voice for other characters on The Muppet Show throughout his life - Dr. Teeth was my favorite - and on Sesame Street (Ernie, Guy Smiley). - Jeremiah
