Lardpork's evil because he's part of the band of thieves, not because he wants to kill T.R.
So, he's still evil.

I think Lardpork's face was used for an Ed Sullivan sketch called "The Glutton"....
And the donkey sounds a little like Bender from "Futurama". :D

Is it my imagination or does Leroy the donkey sound a lot like Bender from Futurama?

Old Man Lardpork look like the evil Queen of Heart from Disney's animated movie, Alice in Wonderland. And the Indian Chief from Disney's animated movie, Peter Pan. Some face of Old Man Lardpork, look to sound awful and foul. Like T.R. the rooster, he was scared of Lardpork that he will get himself into a stew... So go Leroy the donkey! Saving T.R. the rooster from him!

@LaDracul You're right! Lardpork's appearance and appetite WAS based on the "Glutton" character who appeared on "The Ed Sullivan Show"!

@tubaplayindonkey You have a point, but most of the Snuffy performers weren't active at the time. Michael Earl Davis was still a kid, in fact. The only one who was around was Jerry, who was busy playing T.R. in this scene.
Incidentally, Nick Nichols was in a movie called "Dead Ringers". I haven't seen it, but I happen to know it stars one of my favorite actors: Jeremy Irons. He and Nick make two reasons to see it.

Think they removed TR's eye mechanism when he starred on The Muppet Show or made a different puppet of him?

These villains may be physically hideous but they have the most awesome Louisiana bayou accents.
Love Lardpork's deep angry voice and I especially love how they have Mordecai talking in typical bayou slang.
"Crawlsnarkle tree!"
Always makes me laugh.
Hearing Farmer Lardpork speak (especially when he calls T.R. "bird") made me think he must have been performed by one of Snuffleupagus' performers: Jerry Nelson, Michael Earl, or Martin P. Robinson. As it turns out, an actor named Nick Nichols voiced Lardpork (and Leroy Donkey). He's got a great character voice.
