| - Kermit the Forg is a tall gray monster with a long green nose. He was first seen in a Sesame Street sketch in which Kermit the Frog is frustrated in his attempts to buy a personalized t-shirt from the T-Shirt Salesman. The sketch also features Kermit the Gorf and Kermit the Grof. This monster has appeared periodically on Sesame Street since 1978. In his later appearances beyond 1980, he gains lavender eyelids and brown eyelashes. He has been performed by Jerry Nelson (The Wonderful World of T-Shirts), Richard Hunt ("We Are All Monsters"), Michael Earl ("Near Far Monsters"), Martin P. Robinson (Monsters of Venice), and Alice Dinnean (Monsters in Day Care) among others.

The Forg!?!"
