I love how nicky is just vibing in his bedroom with a pride flag, ballons and a suit singing and Rod is just slowly shaking and getting closer to the camera 😂😂😂
I think the most impressive part about this is that either Rick or John has said that they couldn’t hear each other’s parts or see each other while filming this and it still came out so well
Peter Linz was in Avenue Q and he's Ernie now, Rick only filled in occasion for Jim Henson as Kermit, though he has assisted Jim with Ernie at certain points during his tenure on Sesame Street.
I can't count how many times I watched this musical when it came out here in Manila. Love this show. Its funny but has emotional and political undertones. I miss this show.
I just keep watching this, but just noticed the difference on how the foam attached to the mouthplate in the two puppets. Rod has a much sharper lipline than Nicky.
@@TheLyonPuppets now that I see it, it totally makes sense for the characters. It's just something subtle I hadn't noticed before and something to keep in mind as I dabble with building my own puppets. So thank you for making me more conscious of my own hobby.
Neato! I can't wait to set up a zoom meeting with Rick Lyon, John Tartaglia, Stephanie D'Abruzzo and Jennifer Barnhart so I can talk to them about my high school reunion and see if they can come perform there as Nicky, Rod and Lucy! Speaking of Lucy, do you think you should upload something that has to do with Lucy, performed by Jennifer Barnhart, Princeton, performed by John Tartaglia, and Kate Monster, performed by Stephanie D'Abruzzo?
This show was created 17 years ago. It's amazing how the original cast can still get together (virtually, or course) to do stuff like this!

It wasn't actually on zoom. Its just two videos.
@@channelhasbeenmoved639 Yeah, that's what I meant to say. I give them (and whoever edited this) so much credit because it came out great.
Yup, totally shot these independently of each other. Just hoped it would cut together - and it worked pretty well! Editor did a great job!
@@TheLyonPuppets are the real rick Lyon
Can confirm this is him.
THE COSTUME CHANGE AND THE PRIDE FLAG WITH THE BALLOONS HAD ME ON THE FLOOR😭😭😭
Still hilarious, 17 years on!
I WOULD PROTECT THEM ALL WITH MY LIFE
Me too
Rod's gonna be pissed when he sees all that glitter on the floor
They way Nicky said, "Hi Rod!!!!!"
Damn adorable 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
This is the greatest in quarantine video ever.
I lost it when he got into a suit, the flags came out, and the balloons began floating in
Just waiting for the revival. It's all coming together.
"This guy, IN A MASK, slid over to me, and started talkin to me" Better have a mask Nickolas, if he didn't, you'd have CORONNAAA
Man I wish Avenue Q return maybe they can make a Movie like The Muppets (2011)
nicky is a really good ally 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
2:30 NICKY THAT IS GRAWOSS!!
I love this. I miss Avenue Q so much.
I love this song, it’s so funny!! my favorite part is the ending when Rod yells “I AM NOT GAY!!!!” And Nicky concluded “If you are gay.” 😂😂😂
I laughed, I cried, it moved me rick
Its delovely
I love Rod and Nicky
I miss Avenue Q so much
Thanks for posting! I was so bummed that I missed it live
Happy Pride Month
Rick sounds like he’d do a good Kermit or Ernie
THANK YOU! FINALLY SOMEONE AGREES
“It is I, legally renamed Ernie”
Peter Linz was in Avenue Q and he's Ernie now, Rick only filled in occasion for Jim Henson as Kermit, though he has assisted Jim with Ernie at certain points during his tenure on Sesame Street.
You made me smile!

BRILLIANT!

All of Rod is more angular than Nicky. That's a deliberate design choice. :)

2:34 _I’m sorry_ Is that “A Chorus Line” reference I spot?
Omg I didn't even notice that! 😮

With all my love to John, but Rod without all these facial expression is not the same Rod! :D
If you were yag
Could you make some sesame street style & Avenue Q replica puppets for me?😕
Rick doesn't take requests if you want a puppet you could ask someone else who would. Or you could just make your own or buy your own.
Comparing this to the cast recording, why does Nicky sound younger but Rod sounds older?! 😭
Ernie and Bert much?
Is Avenue Q like the puppet version of Saturday Night Live?
More like Sesame Street with the writing of South Park.
Is Nicky performed by John Tartaglia and Rod performed by Rick Lyon?
It’s the other way around
The other way around? What do you mean?
@@alextavalesthemuppetmaniac5607 I mean Nicky is played by Rick Lyon and Rod is performed by John Tartaglia
Yea sure if u want Rod to sound like Kermit the frog and Nicky to sound like a 18 year old Squidward mixed with a bratty nerd.
A bratty nerd? What are you talking about?
.....He never attended that meeting 🤣
bro coud put him on mute😂
