Image | As seen in | Year | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
The Ed Sullivan Show | 1967 | A character called "Gleep" makes an appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show. He has a small red nose and greenish-brown fur. | |
The Muppets on Puppets | 1968 | The early Grover appeared as the middle head of the the Rock and Roll Monster. | |
Sesame Street Season 1 |
1969-1970 | In the first season of Sesame Street, the puppet appears as a nameless character that would eventually evolve into Grover. Kermit refers to him as both "Fuzzy-face" and "The Hairy One," but neither are used for his actual name (see "Fuzzyface"). His voice and behavior is slightly more abrasive than the Grover known today, but he tries to be helpful. The colors of his fur and nose have faintly paled with age. | |
Sesame Street Season 2 |
1970-1974 | The character is introduced as Grover in the first episode of Season 2. He gains his familiar blue fur, a pink nose, and a rounder lower jaw. | |

1974-1976 | Grover's eyes are slightly more tilted, with larger pupils. His nose is also larger. |
File:Grover2.JPG | Sesame Street | 1976-2003 | The design is basically the same, with some minor alterations in the eye placement and the head shape. Grover's fur is often groomed, combed and matted down more. |
Jimmy Kimmel Live | 2004-present | Groverβs current design bears resemblance to the 1974 puppet, with his fur becoming slightly shaggier, as well as a brighter shade of blue, and his eyes further slanted. |
