Lew Zealand
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lew Zealand is a Muppet like no other and has an obsession for fish. The Muppet who throws boomerang fish, he would appear in sketches randomly usually ending with the entire stage in an uproar of sorts. His boomerang fish would steal the scene however because what other Muppet could throw boomerang fish? Lew Zealand is performed by Jerry Nelson.
Although he is not limited to just throwing fish, he also is able to play the fish organ (a line of fish who, when squeezed, each gargle a different note).
Lew is naturally named for the country of New Zealand, and his whole fish act is derived from New Zealand's justifiable reputation as the fisherman's paradise
[edit] Trivia
- Lew is known for his trademark catchphrase: "I throw the fish away, and it comes back to me!"
