Jacques Roach is a cockroach with a French accent.

He first appeared in The Jim Henson Hour episode "Aquatic Life," piloting a submarine with a crew of rats and sheep. His name and accent are a reference to the famed French underwater explorer Jacques Cousteau. Later in the series, he played the part of a French chef, often competing with the Swedish Chef.

The same puppet and a similar voice were used in 1994 on The Animal Show as Yves St. La Roach.

The roach also appeared as a pirate in the 1996 film Muppet Treasure Island.
