King Ploobis

King Ploobis is the greedy, decadent sovereign of the decaying Land of Gortch in sketches on Saturday Night Live. Ploobis is the husband of Queen Peuta and father of Wisss, and is having an affair with Vazh. Ploobis frequently seeks guidance from The Mighty Favog, and is fond of mistreating his lackey/sidekick Scred.
In the closing credits of the March 13, 1976 SNL broadcast (hosted by Anthony Perkins), John Belushi pulled a knife on Ploobis.
Ploobis (alongside Queen Peuta, Scred, Vazh, and Wisss) can also be spotted in The Muppet Movie’s "Rainbow Connection" finale.
A Ploobis puppet was built for the 2024 SNL biopic Saturday Night.
