Other puppeteers he has performed with include Russ Walko, Brett O'Quinn, Patrick Johnson, Sean Johnson, and Artie Esposito.

He wrote, produced, designed, and acted on Killer Klowns from Outer Space alongside his brothers, Stephen Chiodo and Edward Chiodo.

Guðmundur Þór Kárason is an Icelandic puppeteer, puppet builder, producer, and creative director who is best known for performing Ziggy on LazyTown. His goal of building puppets and creatures that come alive with character came true within his adulthood. Guðmundur joined LazyTown Entertainment back in 1998 as a creative director involved in everything before the LazyTown became a series. Kárason was not only the performer of Ziggy on the series, but he also produced and designed the puppets for Neal Scanlan Studios to build. I've read that he attended two workshops by Jim Henson Productions in 1996 and 1999 while also attending a workshop for the Creature Shop in the latter. He's done a good job of working at LazyTown Entertainment, Icelandic production company dedicated to children's health & well-being. But LazyTown can't be the only show Guðmundur Þór Kárason worked on since his goal states any kinds of puppets and creatures. Other puppeteers he performed with in

Debra Wilson is an actress, voice actress, comedian, and writer who only did puppetry for one series, The Mr. Potato Head Show (as Queenie Sweet Potato and Miss Licorice Lips). She is best known for being a cast member on Mad TV from 1995-2003, eight seasons exactly. As voice actress, Debra has voiced over thousands of characters for television shows like All Hail King Julien, Mao Mao: Heroes of Pure Heart, and Spitting Image (reboot). As for Disney, Wilson did Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, The Owl House, and Mickey Mouse Funhouse (taking over the role of Daisy Duck after Season 1). It amazes me how one actress like her can do so many shows. Her live-action work includes Reno 911, 2 Broke Girls, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and more. I wonder if Debra Wilson had a hard time doing puppetry for Mr. Potato Head, since she had to keep her arm in the air for hours. At least she performed with other puppeteers such as Brian Jacobs (an actor too), Mark Bryan Wilson, Julianne Buescher, and
