Talk:Harvey Kneeslapper

From Muppet Wiki

Harvey Wallbanger

I don't know if Harvey's name is actually a parody of Harvey Wallbanger. That sounds kind of thin to me. Any evidence for it? -- Danny (talk) 19:24, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

My only argument would be because of the similarities of their first and last name: "Knee-slapper" and "Wall-banger". -- MuppetDude 20:04, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I just think that might be a coincidence. -- Danny (talk) 20:42, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

So, can we go ahead and take the Wallbanger bit out? Andrew Leal (talk) 17:22, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm doing it. Sesame "parody" names are usually more obvious than that, and I can't see why they would be referencing a drink. -- Danny (talk) 22:34, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

Rip Taylor

I don't know if anybody has ever noticed, but Harvey Kneeslapper seems to bare some resemblance to comedian Rip Taylor, specifically his appearance and his penchant for throwing glitter/confetti. -- User:128.255.203.74 17 Feb 2006
