    Imagine it’s 3am, you here a noise in your downstairs basement, you begin to walk downstairs and the sound gets louder, you grab a flashlight and you are now shaking with fear, you walk downstairs into your basement with the only light being your flashlight, you then hear the noise again and turn around to see the Hugga Wugga jump out and blow his smoke in your face, you wake up wondering if it was all just a dream, until you look under your bed to see the hugga wugga say his famous line and he blows more smoke.

    Frank Oz's performance here as Hugga Wugga was absolutely brilliant. I wonder how difficult it would be to actually *build* a Hugga Wugga, what with the movable eyes and steam cannon....

      The buggy mugger isn't mean at heart. He's just ignorant and insecure. Which makes him intolerant. Which makes him mean. I mean, look at the guy. He's apparently the only one of his kind, his planet's a dump, there is a plant growing in his brain... The only thing that gives him comfort and security is repeating a familiar phrase in a familiar rhythm. And blasting things with fog is just his defense/coping mechanism for when his ASS is triggered. But no, ignore all that and make him the bully. What did the lemon drop guy want from him anyway?

      It's a shame though. CCB was really getting into it, with the 'Higgy Wiggy' variation and then the freestyling. Too bad Hugga wasn't ready to open its mind and like, get its groove on man, because they could have gone boldly together, know what I mean? But traditionalist Hugga oppressed creativity instead of embracing it, and that is why in the end it got blasted by the hip new sound of the now, and Cool Crazy Bird got on that train instead. Just goes to show, when you hear that whistle blow, you better be ready, man. Dig?

    Their planet was razed by humans when they were children, Buggy Mugger is trying to make sure their culture doesn't die out or get assimilated by human culture and he's trying to teach the other creatures how to sing traditional songs, so he gets upset when others improvise, as it denigrates his people's culture, the memory of the parents he lost in the orbital bombardment. Then this little yellow thing comes and starts singing human songs, the songs of the people who have committed genocide against his people. He's understandably upset.
