Herry Monster Through the Years

The Evolution of Herry Monster (1970-present)

Image	As seen in	Year	Notes
	Sesame Street early Season 2	1970	The first Herry puppet debuts in episode 0131, the Season 2 premiere. This puppet has a hairy blue nose that is sometimes hard to distinguish from the rest of his face.
	Sesame Street later Season 2	1971	Herry is rebuilt with a smooth blue nose. He also has a tongue.

	Sesame Street Season 10	1978-1986	The design is similar to the previous puppet with some minor changes; the most evident being a slightly thinner eyebrow and nose, both of which will continue to morph and decrease in size over the next couple of decades.
	Sesame Street Season 18	1986-1992	Herry's nose now connects to the tip of his brow (that is when it’s fully raised), filling the gap in-between. Because of this, his nose is now somewhat tear-drop shaped.
	Sesame Street Season 20	1988-1997, 2008-present	Herry is resculpted with a cheerful expression and a different head shape, resulting in a smaller mouth and a shorter eyebrow. His nose has also gotten shorter, while his fur has become longer, shaggier, and a more vibrant blue.
	Sesame Street Season 29	1997-2008	Herry is rebuilt again with a head shape resembling the 70’s puppet. Likewise, his nose is larger. However, it's now a solid tear-drop, causing his eyes to further slant towards each other. His eyebrow is at its thinnest. Since 2001 (with some exceptions), Herry has been mostly retired from the show. Though, upon returning recently for the 2008 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and a cameo in Episode 4206, he’s appeared to have reverted back to the previous design.
