Performer(s) Appeared in Statler and Waldorf are a pair of characters who originally appeared in the television series The Muppet Show. They are two disagreeable old men who share the left balcony box in the Muppet Theater and delight in heckling every aspect of The Muppet Show, especially Fozzie Bear's attempts at comedy. They always have the last word, with a final comment at the end of each episode.
