Muppets

National Post’s Tournament of Muppets

Who will be the last?

The Muppet experts at the National Post will be pitting muppet against muppet to find Canada’s best and most favourite felt creature.

“Over the next five days, our Muppet experts at the Post’s Arts & Life section will debate and vote on which Muppet deserves its place in the Jim Henson canon, and which simply needs to be shot out of a cannon, Gonzo-style.”

If you follow along with their picks, vote for your favourite on Nov. 22. Thankfully, all Muppets, regardless of how they place in the tournament, are expected to appear in the Muppets movie, which comes out the very next day. No need to choose between Pepe and the Swedish Chef.

What are your picks for Round 1? We’re pulling for Scooter, the Swedish Chef, Miss Piggy (obviously) and Gonzo.
