DEBUT | 1996 |
Walleye Pike was one of the pirates in Muppet Treasure Island. He is a large walking pike. When Dead Tom "dies" at Long John Silver's hands and his controller cries over him, Walleye Pike points out that Dead Tom has always been dead.
Walleye Pike is among several of his co-horts in the Pirates! In Story & History exhibit.
He also appears in the CD-ROM game, performed by John Kennedy, and the sing-along video, performed by Peter Linz. He later appeared among the Gulag 38B prisoners in Muppets Most Wanted.
He'd go on to appear in Muppets Meet the Classics: Fairy Tales from the Brothers Grimm. He features in the "Sleeping Beauty" rendition, where he supplants the talking frog from the Grimms' version as the one who prophesies the birth of the princess.
