Joe: The Rise of Cobra, and narrated a documentary about Albert Einstein's famous equation, E=mc².

  I think really it was the brilliance of the writing. The puppets were great, but the scripts were extraordinary.  

  I loved Bunsen, the mad scientist, who was forever exploding Beaker.  

  Gonzo was a great character because Gonzo was like all of us: wanting to be great and was forever nearly killing himself. It was kinda tragic comedy, too.
