Sully
From Muppet Wiki
Sully is a construction worker, and a friend and colleague to Biff. Although Sully never speaks on Sesame Street, it is suggested that he is indeed capable of speech. In the song "Think of Your Fingers," Biff recalls Sully giving him advice on how to remember the number 5. Also, in Big Bird Gets Lost, while drilling loudly Biff tells Big Bird what Sully says.
Although Sully never spoke, Hunt can be heard in the song, "This Song is For the Birds."
In addition to working in construction, Sully is good at playing the piano. However, Biff is sometimes oblivious to this.
In the early 90s, Sully was performed by David Rudman since Richard Hunt's death.[1]
Two construction-worker Anything Muppets who looked similar to Biff and Sully made background appearances in the sketch "Outrageous Makeover: Home Edition" sketch. (First: Episode 4132) Also, a stagehand that looked like Sully appeared in the "Survivor: Musical Chairs" sketch. (First: Episode 4134)
