==Origin==
Rowlf the Dog is a cherished Muppet character created by Jim Henson, recognized for being the first Muppet with a regular spot on network television through his appearances on "The Jimmy Dean Show" from 1963 to 1966. As a laid-back brown dog with floppy ears, Rowlf is often seen behind a piano, where he showcases his musical talents in blues and jazz, contributing to his widespread popularity.
Rowlf's easy-going personality and his musical skills made him a bright character within the Muppet ensemble, allowing him to fit seamlessly into various sketches and musical performances. His calm and unflappable personality stood in stark contrast to the zanier characters in the Muppet troupe, further endearing him to audiences.
Throughout his career, Rowlf has appeared in numerous Muppet films, including significant roles in "The Muppet Movie" (1979), "The Great Muppet Caper" (1981), "The Muppets Take Manhattan" (1984), and "The Muppets" (2011). He was also a regular on "The Muppet Show", where he performed comedic and musical skits, often alongside other beloved characters like Kermit the Frog and Fozzie Bear.
In 1993, Rowlf's musical talent was spotlighted in his solo album, "Ol' Brown Ears is Back", which was released posthumously. The album, recorded by Jim Henson as Rowlf, features 14 songs and highlights his skills as a pianist and vocalist, reinforcing his role as the Muppets' resident musician.
Following Jim Henson's death in 1990, Rowlf's appearances became less frequent. However, he made a notable comeback in the 2011 film "The Muppets" and has continued to feature in various Muppet productions since then. His appearances include the 2014 film "Muppets Most Wanted" and the Disney+ special "Muppets Haunted Mansion" in 2021.
