Bunsen Honeydew is the resident scientist on The Muppet Show and host of the Muppet Labs sketches. In Season 1 of The Muppet Show he worked alone, but in Season 2, his assistant Beaker was added to the show. Bunsen is always eager to show off his latest scientific discovery, but his excitement about progress tends to render him short-sighted. But Beaker always ends up being the victim of Bunsen's expierements, always getting harmed by Dr. Honeydew's inventions.
Bunsen's inventions include:
- Gorilla detector
- Exploding hat
- Edible paper clips
- Robot politician
- Hair-growing tonic
- Copy machine
- Musical rotating rain barrel
Bunsen has appeared in nearly every Muppet movie, however he was not in Muppets Take Manhatten for no apparent reason, though speculation says that he was originally written an invention in the postcard from the Electric mayhem.
