Robin The Frog

Robin, sometimes known as "Robin the Frog" is a muppet, created by Jim Henson and performed by Jerry Nelson. He is the nephew of the far more widely known Kermit the Frog.

Robin was a recurring guest of his uncle Kermit at the theatre in which The Muppet Show took place. Notable appearances include a duet with monster Sweetums and nearly being cooked by the Swedish Chef.

Robin made one appearance in the animated Muppet Babies series - Nana brought the tadpole Robin to the nursery to show Kermit that he was an uncle now.

In The Muppet Movie, Robin accompanies uncle Kermit to the theatre to watch the premiere of the movie. When Robin asks "Is this really the story of how the Muppets got started?" Kermit tells him it's more like loosely based on the real story.

Robin's perhaps best known performance was playing Tiny Tim in the feature film The Muppet Christmas Carol.
