Gus Hopper, an Anything Muppet insect, received his name in a Sesame Street sketch from the mid-1990s (EKA: Episode 3325). Upon Bonnie Rabbit's mention of a "grasshopper," Gus hops in to correct her in an irritated manner similar to Benny Rabbit whenever he's called "Bunny." Likewise, Gus also speaks in a tough, scratchy voice, performed by Joey Mazzarino. The puppet has made sporadic background appearances on Sesame Street as early as 1990, appearing in sketches like "Night Bug Boogie," and an Elmo's World episode about bugs.
