Clifford Scott was a 22nd century Human man who was, by the early 23rd century, Montgomery Scott's paternal grandfather. He once said to his grandson that "Men make their own luck." (TNG novelization: Relics)
Clifford is the hip Muppet who first appeared on The Jim Henson Hour before being selected to host Muppets Tonight. He is often seen wearing sunglasses, and his multi-colored dreadlocks give his appearance a Rastafarian feel. Although his facial features, particularly his lips and mustache, are somewhat reminiscent of a catfish, as Kermit pointed out in episode 102 of Muppets Tonight, Clifford is a humanoid Muppet, much in the same vein as Scooter.

Clifford first appeared on The Jim Henson Hour, where he was the bass player for the band Solid Foam. With the main exception of Digit, he was seen at Muppet Central more than any other member of the band. One of his more notable appearances outside of the band was in episode 102, where he told a story about evolution and the environment. His next major appearance after The Jim Henson Hour ended was in The Muppets at Walt Disney World, where he joined the Electric Mayhem as an auxiliary percussionist. Clifford once appeared on The Arsenio Hall Show to promote the special. In this appearance, he revealed that he doesn't have a last name and that he enjoys being spanked. In the Muppets Inside CD-ROM game, Clifford hosted a Name That Tune-style game show called Scope That Song.
Although he appeared in several smaller productions in the years that followed, Clifford's most prominent role to date was hosting Muppets Tonight, starting in 1996. Whereas in his previous appearances, he had been depicted as a laid-back character, the pressures of hosting the show often caused him to lose his cool, such as in the premiere episode where he was cast as the host and told to immediately go on camera without any preparation whatsoever.
In episode 101, Kermit hired Clifford to host the show because he was the only one not to run out of the office when Kermit asks the other Muppets who would like to host the show (Clifford was busy talking to his girlfriend on his cell phone). In addition to hosting, Clifford appeared in the recurring UK segments Fairyland PD and Real World Muppets.
When Clifford took on the starring role in Muppets Tonight his look was slightly altered. He lost his trademark sunglasses and was seen with traditional Muppet eyes for the first time. After Muppets Tonight, Clifford regained his shades for his roles in Muppets from Space and The Muppets' Wizard of Oz. At MuppetFest in 2001, Kevin Clash revealed that he hated the eyes and is happy Clifford is wearing sunglasses again.
Some of the more notable episodes involving Clifford include episode 206, in which he constantly tried to get a kiss from Paula Abdul, and episode 207, in which Dennis Quaid seemed to take over from Clifford.
Clifford has appeared in two of the Muppet movies. He had a fairly large role in Muppets from Space where he earned his title as the Muppet Boarding House's expert on all things cool. He later appeared in The Muppets' Wizard of Oz as the bouncer for the Poppyfields nightclub. In both of these appearances, Clifford's style was depicted as closer in nature to his earliest appearances on The Jim Henson Hour.
A Clifford Action Figure was released in Series 6 of the Palisades Toys line of Muppet action figures, modeled after the character's look in Muppets Tonight. To date this is the only Clifford merchandise produced.

Clifford "Cliff" Widmore is a metafictional character who appears in Bad Twin, a novel written by Flight 815 passenger Gary Troup.
Cliff is the son of Arthur Widmore and twin brother to Alexander. He was born 23 minutes after his brother on August 16th (16/8). He is described as having dark blue eyes, being right handed, and being about 35 years old. He married Shannon Widmore, but not long later she committed suicide. On the same day as her funeral, Alexander disappeared.
Four months later, Cliff hired investigator Paul Artisan to find his brother at whatever cost. He also hired Pru Cunningham to tail his stepmother, Vivian Widmore, after he suspected that she was cheating on his father.
In the book, Cliff is acting CEO of the Widmore Corporation. While Arthur is still in the role officially, he leaves day-to-day operations to his son.

Clifford was the dim-witted assistant of "Big Steve" Ludwig, charged with such unethical tasks as rolling back the odometers of cars on Ludwig's lot.
Big Steve sent Clifford to buy several cases of soda to be poured into the Throttlebots' gas tanks. In his typically "slow" fashion, Clifford initially assumed that Big Steve was just going to drink all that soda himself. Have we mentioned yet that Clifford just wasn't very bright? Used Autobots
