Steve Whitmire has left the Muppets, Matt Vogel to continue as Kermit

Me like things others don't.

Story of my life. Or so it seems. I think everyone in the world has felt like this at least once in their lives. There are quite a few things I like that the general consensus does, though.

The trick is to get to where you don’t care what others’ think about what you like.

How I picture (some) fans when they hear someone say they like Muppets from Space.

Muppets From Space is a movie that I know isn't very good, but I like it anyways. It's a fun film with some decent comedy. Also, I think nostalgia plays a factor for me since it was one of the first muppet productions I watched.

Well, as bad as it is, I do have an odd sense of nostalgia towards it just because it was my first time seeing a new Muppet special and one of the few things the characters were doing at the time. So I didn't complain.

I agree that watching it now it's not the greatest thing ever, but I still loved when The Muppets were on the set of Suite Life of Zack and Cody.

As a kid, I loved the idea of seeing these adorable characters interacting with my favorite celebrities of the time, and that's what drew me into watching D.C. Almost Live. I think it was a good idea for Disney to re introduce The Muppets to the new generation of kids, just like what they did with Muppet Moments.

Without D.C. Almost Live, I probably wouldn't have noticed The Muppets. My true fascination to the characters wasn't until the teaser of the 2011 movie, but I remember seeing the trailer and was like "Oh it's those characters I saw on Disney Channel!" haha.

Today is Jim Henson's Birthday and Steve's as well

I read that on the other thread. Happy birthday to both of them.

A lot of people still upset with Disney firing Steve WHitmire. We already found the truth and why can't everybody just let it go?

 

[D'Snowth]

Because still nobody knows the entire truth of the entire situation, and we probably never will: Disney and the Hensons are sticking with their side of the story, and Steve is sticking with his side of the story, and there's two sides to every story.

I've never been inside my refrigerator, but I know the light goes out when I close the door.

Thanks for the moral, Aesop.
