Welcome to Muppet Wiki!
Pigs have held various roles in Muppet productions. They've appeared as ancillary characters such as dancers and singers on The Muppet Show, and have also taken on major roles.
Sesame Street has maintained its own set of pigs over the years. The series initially used a variation of the Hot Pink AM pattern (still retained for certain characters), and later introduced a group of four-legged, semi-realistic pigs, who could be used as farmyard oinkers or in speaking roles, as the need demanded.
