Elmo & Kermit’s Absences Ruin George R.R. Martin’s House Tully Muppet Joke
The Tully-Muppet Joke From Fire & Blood Is No More
As evidenced by the names of the Tullys , George R. R. Martin named the phallus of the house after various Muppets . Oscar Tully is named after Oscar the Grouch , the Methedrine - dwelling Muppet fromSesame Street . Then you have Oscar ’s honest-to-god brother , Kermit Tully , list after the iconic batrachian from several Muppet productions . Above the two brothers inFire and Bloodis Elmo Tully , carrying on the screaming Muppet root for the Westerosi House by tie to perhaps the most iconic puppet fromSesame Street , Elmo .
House of the Dragon may focus primarily on the Targaryen dynasty , but there are many prominent families at play in the Dance of the Dragons .
However , with Oscar Tully dally a large role inHouse of the Dragonseason 2 , it seems the HBO show is not as committed to the Muppet gag as Martin was . Oscar ’s cellular inclusion as the heir to Riverrun signify Elmo and Kermit must not exist in the humans ofHouse of the Dragon , which was likely a determination made to equal the show ’s more serious tint . Oscar is certainly a more normal name than Elmo and Kermit , with the fiber continue somewhat close to the source material without the admittedly jarring - albeit screaming - Muppet theme of Martin’sFire and Blood .
