Other Media

Gonzo makes a cameo appearance in Sesame Street episode "Big Bird's Talent Show" as the third contestant in the talent show. Gonzo cameoed in Monsters, Inc. Scare Island, where he worked for the monsters to look for clues of the jewel thief.

Gonzo also made a small, but important speaking appearance on The Cosby Show. The episode was "Cliff's Nightmare" in which several other minor Muppets starred. Gonzo told Cliff Huxtable that he had to deliver a baby from a large insane creature. Cliff woke up before having to do so.

Baby Gonzo is one of the cartoon characters featured in Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue.

Gonzo was featured on the #28 Havoline Ford of Ricky Rudd in the 2002 Tropicana 400 in an advertising campaign in which he and his fellow Muppets were featured on a select few NASCAR Nextel Cup Series race cars.

Gonzo also appeared alongside his fellow Muppets in the Halloween 2011 episode of WWE Raw, where he and Fozzie encountered Jack Swagger, Dolph Ziggler and Vickie Guerrero backstage. Upon hearing that Gonzo could be a WWE Champion if he put his mind into it, Swagger and Ziggler grabbed his arms and stretched them before tying them around him in a knot. When asked by Fozzie if he was alright, he replied, "Are you kidding? How did they know I needed an adjustment?"

Famous quotes containing the word media:

    “One can describe a landscape in many different words and sentences, but one would not normally cut up a picture of a landscape and rearrange it in different patterns in order to describe it in different ways. Because a photograph is not composed of discrete units strung out in a linear row of meaningful pieces, we do not understand it by looking at one element after another in a set sequence. The photograph is understood in one act of seeing; it is perceived in a gestalt.”
    —Joshua Meyrowitz, U.S. educator, media critic. “The Blurring of Public and Private Behaviors,” No Sense of Place: The Impact of Electronic Media on Social Behavior, Oxford University Press (1985)

    “The media no longer ask those who know something ... to share that knowledge with the public. Instead they ask those who know nothing to represent the ignorance of the public and, in so doing, to legitimate it.”
    —Serge Daney (1944–1992)
