Grover
Grover, also known as Grover Monster, is a Muppet character on the popular television show ''Sesame Street''. Self-described as lovable, cute and furry, he is an indigo monster who almost never uses contractions when speaking or singing. Grover was originally performed by Frank Oz from his earliest appearances until 2001. Eric Jacobson began performing Grover in 1998; he has performed the character regularly since 2001, although Oz still performs him occasionally. ==Origins== A prototype version of Grover appeared on ''The Ed Sullivan Show'' in a Christmas Eve appearance in 1967. This puppet had greenish-brown fur and a red nose. He also had a raspier voice, and was played a bit more unkempt than Grover would later behave. The monster was referred to as "Gleep", a monster in Santa's workshop. He later made a cameo appearance in ''The Muppets On Puppets'' in 1968 with the Rock and Roll Monster. In 1969, clad in a necktie, he appeared in the ''Sesame Street Pitch Reel'' in the board room sequences. During the first season of ''Sesame Street'', the character was nicknamed "Fuzzyface" or "The Hairy One", though neither would be used for his actual name. In an appearance on ''The Ed Sullivan Show'' on May 31, 1970, the character acquired his present name and his appearance was changed to the more familiar puppet with blue fur and a pink nose. In this appearance, Kermit the Frog tried to sing "What Kind of Fool Am I?" (accompanying himself on piano), but Grover repeatedly interrupted him. The true Grover "officially" debuted in the second season of ''Sesame Street''.
