Tom Pipersson is the titular character in the nursery rhyme "Tom, Tom, the Piper's Son."
He appeared on Sesame Street in a Colambo sketch in Episode 3112. Colambo visits his residence to ask a few questions about the theft of Farmer McGregor's pig. Pipersson, the culprit, tries to pass off the pig as his dog (a pork-terrier) using a mustache. Colambo plays along at first, until he brings in McGregor and removes the pig's mustache. It is then revealed that Pipersson has also stolen McGregor's cow and chicken. Before Colambo can bring him downtown, McGregor mistakes the lieutenant for his lost sheep, Petey, and drags him back to the farm.
