Loonette the Clown is the whimsical, big-hearted star of The Big Comfy Couch, a show that taught a generation how to laugh, stretch, and tidy up with joy. Her childlike wonder, boundless energy, and silly charm made her a comforting presence for kids everywhere. Always curious and endlessly imaginative, Loonette reminds us that life’s a little more fun when you look at the world upside down — literally, on her famous Clock Rug stretch.
Additional tips
Group Costume Ideas (Big Comfy Couch Crew)
Loonette the Clown: Rust overalls, striped tights, blue hat, Molly doll.
Major Bedhead: Red jumpsuit, orange wig, and a vacuum cleaner prop.
Granny Garbanzo: Long floral dress, glasses, and a kerchief headscarf.
Molly the Doll (Human Version): Blue dress, white collar, yarn wig, and soft makeup.
Pose & Personality: Strike a Clock Rug pose for photos — spread your arms and legs like the hands of a clock. Keep your energy playful, expressive, and full of curiosity.
Face and Makeup: Start with a light layer of white face paint for that classic clown glow — keep it soft and friendly rather than full coverage. Add round rosy cheeks using red or pink cream blush, a bright red clown nose, and a touch of black eyeliner to define the eyes. Finish with a cheerful smile or a hint of lip color to capture Loonette’s playful, approachable look.
