Flat Eric
- Description:
-
Flat Eric is a low-tech, yellow puppet character from Levi's commercials for Sta-Prest One Crease Denim Clothing, built by Jim Henson's Creature Shop. His name comes from an idea for a commercial that included having a car run over his head and flattening it. The idea was not used but the name stuck. In the commercials, Flat Eric would ride with his friend Angel (played by Phillipe Petit) around California, evading the police as a wanted criminal.
Flat Eric was made by Janet Knechtel in the UK and was performed by Drew Massey for all the Levi's commercials. He was also featured in Mr. Oizo's music video for "Flat Beat", and appeared as a prop in first season of the 2001-2003 original BBC comedy The Office.

Yeah, I don't know if they kept it with a cow or something :/
Hopefully it'll go away, cause I already removed the tag so I can't return it
