Jeff Dunham and his Suitcase Posse
Jeff Dunham has created a wonderful cast of characters for his comedy routine. Here is a little about each member.Jeff has some great skits on marriage, kids, cars, and he will have you dying of laughter.
Achmed is a terrorist. A dead terrorist. Only he doesn't know he's dead. He calls Jeff "Infidel" and his best line is, "Silence! I kill you."
Walter is a grumpy old man that hates everything - especially his wife. From his views on the terrorist situation to his wisecrack about marriage, Walter will have you rolling on the floor with laughter.
Peanut is a purple woozle and he can be very annoying. His laugh is hilarious and he has a thing about getting right in Jeff's face when he wants to.
Melvin is a super hero with a few special powers. He can fly (as far as Jeff can throw him), see through clothes, and he loves to battle terrorists.
Jose is a jalepeno (on a stick). He is a secondary character to Jeff's skit with Peanut and their act will have you roaring with laughter.
What I Like About Jeff Dunham's Comedy Act
What I like the most about Jeff's routine is his ability to switch from one character to another. He does it so smoothly and stays in character so well that you almost forget he is talking to his puppets.Also, his puppets are so realistic. With eyebrow lifts, and facial movements you wouldn't think possible on a ventriloquist dummy, the comedy act is superb.
Jeff Dunham is my favorite comedian for many reasons and I encourage you to catch his act and see for yourself.
