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

    "I have in my hands a definitive project that I am certain will turn the Muppets around. It was born in the minds of those who know the Muppets best, and was to be pitched to The Muppets Studio the next time I was in Los Angeles. But, as things presently stand because of my dismissal it will...

    But seriously, some birdbrains at ABC literally called him the "tea lizard" in a news report. ***! The network literally aired a MUPPET SHOW the past year.

    I may be in the minority, but I liked Uncle Deadly more in the 2011 movie than the 2015 show.

    Okay, he's not a "second generation" performer, but he didn't have any prominent roles until MTM and it wasn't until the 90's that he rose through the ranks.

    Whitmire: Rizzo Vogel: Constantine I love when second generation performers get their own characters.

    The pageview numbers for Muppet Central must have exploded this month.

    The Bob's Burgers Discussion Thread

    Thread Bump. Omg, so many good episodes have aired since April "Zero Larp Thirty" (the one where Linda & Bob role-play at that Downtown Abbey-esque place) "The Laser-inth (Bob & Gene bond over a laser show) "Paraders of the lost float" (the "season finale" where Bob and the rest enter a...

    It still doesn't feel like a muppet movie.

    Confessing Crushes...

    If we're including non-animated characters, I have a huge crush on Kristen Schaal. As for animated, Judy Hopps!

    The thing about Christmas Carol is that it's a good adaption of a christmas carol, but it's not a good muppet movie. There's nothing muppety or goofy about it. I also feel a bit sad everytime I watch it thinking just how somber everyone must have been after losing not only Jim but also Richard...

    1. If you were a fruit, which one would you be? Orange, duh. 2. If you could change your name, what would you change it to? Buck Naked 3. Of the "one joke" Muppets, which do you like the best, Lew Zealand, Crazy Harry, or The Count? The Count is my favorite SS muppet, so I'll go with him...

    I'd say Great Muppet Caper is the best. If I were to rank them The Great Muppet Caper The Muppet Movie Muppets Most Wanted The Muppets (2011) Muppets From Space The Muppets Take Manhattan Muppet Treasure Island Muppet Christmas Carol (Good movie, not a good muppet movie though). Ya, that's...

    Muppets From Space is okay. Jeffrey Tambor and Bobo the bear are great in it and there are some funny moments. It's at least more entertaining (but not necessarily better) than Muppets take Manhattan for me, but doesn't come close than the first two. I completely agree with your 'weak yet...

    What I meant about VMX is that it was great to see Kermit front & center instead of Gonzo or Rizzo. It's not a great movie, but it's still enjoyable. Honestly, none of the post-Henson muppet movies are great aside from the Muppets and MMW.

    Weren't Latifah, Tambor, and Grier just minor characters? Jeffrey Tambor was one of the best parts of Muppets From Space, but his part was really forgettable in this movie. To be honest, I don't remember much about MOZ aside from that it was awful, might have to watch it a second time.

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

    I have to strongly disagree with you there. VMX wasn't amazing, but it brought back some forgotten characters and a good majority of the muppets like Fozzie and Gonzo were in-character after a movie of picking noses and being scared to get their brain sucked out. The songs weren't half-bad...

    I wonder what would have happened if The Muppets were still on the air. Matt Vogel would have to quickly get his Kermit down for a hypothetical third season.

    I understand & respect Oz's opinion, but I feel him not liking the newer stuff is more about personal things than about the quality of the productions. I mean, he only watched 15 minutes of the pilot of a TV show before he reached a verdict that it sucked.

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

    Yes, but if he took part in that movie, where Fozzie was unbearably stupid and his biggest joke was picking his nose, I don't get him complaining about the new stuff. And frankly, the 2015 muppet show did Fozzie right. Not overly stupid, just a well-meaning bear who sometimes gets into trouble...

    Your Thoughts: "Muppets Most Wanted" Theatrical Film

    Dave Goelz is still with the muppets, so it's a lot less far-fetched than Clifford, Sal, or Hilda coming back.
