Since today (or yesterday or when ever, depending on when you read this) is Jerry's Birthday, I'm going to rehash the Richard Hunt question.
For Me, I'd say, Sherlock Hemlock, Mumford, Herry, Biff, and Count on Sesame Street, Crazy Harry, Lew Zeland, Sgt. Floyd Pepper, Louis Kazzager, STatler (techincally correct, he originated the role, and he continues it) on Muppet Show, and Gobo on Fraggle Rock. I can't say Scred, though since I haven't seen any SNL Muppet sketches.

On the muppet show I love Robin and Floyd. "Breathe through the key hole, turkey dog!"
On Sesame Street my favorites are Biff, Fat Blue, and the Two-Headed Monster.
Adios,

I forgot Little Jerry too. Everytime I do one of these lists, I always forget one.
Jerry, I think, does the most incidential characters of all the Muppeteers. He was a witch doctor, a moose, an announcer, various vegetables, the Ghost of Christmas Present, and so on and so on.

The Count, Floyd Pepper, Herry Monster, Mumford, Statler, Snuffy (When he originated the role) and Crazy Harry are my favorite Jerry Nelson characters.

I love Gobo and the Trash Heap (with both of those characters, you have to wonder "How does a voice like that come from a man like that?", it's just amazing what he can do!), as well as Scred...

Count Von Count! Ah, ah, ah! :D
And probably like Emmy, Gobo and Marjory would follow. :)

My fav would have to be The Count and also the Two Headed Monster because I like the fact he and the late, great Richard Hunt performed him so well together!!!

Oh gosh there are just so many....
From Sesame Street my favourite just has to be Herry Monster. (Since he sang one of the my favourite Sesame numbers, that duet with Louisey).
As for The Muppet Show.
Well I think top choice I gotta go for Cowboy Jerry (some call him Slim Wilson), again because of the singing. But then there's also Floyd and Robin, oh and Pops.
From other TV shows, well obvious Balthazer and Bratty Rat from SLoT. - I include Bratty Rat only because of the spectacular singing of 'I'm Going To Tell On You'.
Then from the films. Well there's Pops in GMC leading everyone with Happiness Hotel - a classic. Obviously Robin in MCC - it's just one of the most moving moments ever. Jerry sings with such feeling, and really brings Tiny Tim to life (I wonder if perhaps there was something more than just acting there....).
And from MTI, well who could forget the rat on water-skis complaining "I'm tired".
