    Why is Steve Whitmire the voice of Kermit?

    Noel Blanc did Bugs Bunny once in a Tiny Tunes X-mas special for some reason. On the regular Tiny Tunes show Bugs and all of the characters were played by Jeff something. I forgot the whole name. He then quit or was fired for some weird reason. Since then the character got split up a bit...

    Why is Steve Whitmire the voice of Kermit?

    But Kermit spazz's out a litle too often now. He gets flustered really easily. He was always the calm one until ti got really nuts. Now he reminds me of Nigel from MT.

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    Yep. A Verry Merry Muppet Christmas was a special done by NBC in 2002. Scooter had a huge part in that. Certainly more than we've seen in years.

    The mystery of 'No Bo' and other such questions...

    I don't see why Dave couldn't do the voice anymore. He was able to to it just fine on MT. It seems it would be less stressful than Gonzo. I think it's just a matter of not putting him in the script or finding a good part for him. How is Beau a stereotype? Or rather how is he any less of...

    New Skeksis Castle 12 inch resin kit!

    That is beyond amazing! So you can make many of these?

    Did you watch AVMMC? That was Scooter's first new appearance and he was used a lot. Just as much as in otherm ovie I would say. I'm sure you'd likei t.

    The mystery of 'No Bo' and other such questions...

    It's a matter of no one getting lines other than Kermit, Rizzo, Pepe, Gonzo, Piggy, Fozzie, Sam, Statler, Waldorf, Scooter (HE"S BACK), and someties the Chef. This was pretty much the case with MWoO and AVMMC. It also happened in MFS for the most part I think. There is no reason for this...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    Just because there are puppets does not mean the target audience is kids. This is somehting Jim Henson tried to fight ever since he started Sesame Street. It's what he had to fight to get the muppet show up and running. The Muppet Show's target audience was not kids. It was teens and adults...

    If Kermit stops hosting...

    Well it would mean either Rizzo or Kermit would have to be cut down on. But, Kemrit simply will not be replaced by Bean.

    But tyrion is a guy. He said he watched it with his wife. Why would ne be jelous of Ashanti? There was nothing trashy about her. She can't help the fact that she has a nice body. Should she wear garbage bags so no one looks at her and gets filthy ideas in there head. tyrion? I agree...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets' Oz CD

    Tenderly likely came from the first season. I believe she played Janice then. If not her, some other female performer. Richard did not take over until season 2. He also didn't have Beaker until season 2 which was when he was created. He really only had Statler and Scooter.

    Henson Contro system and CGI

    Well pretty much every one used it in a production at one time or another so I don't think that means he actually helped create it.

    It's Official: Fraggle Rock Season 1 Box Set

    Finally some really good muppet dvd sets! Fraggle Rock and the Muppet Show each comingo ut around the same time. Now we just need Sesame Street, though those seasons are far too big to even consider.

    Who does Rizzo play in OZ?

    Yeah, but in the WoO you can't really keep the Scarecrow out of the movie like you can Capt. Smollet. Besides, Rizzo was a munchkin they just naturally have smaller parts. Oh, and I think Rizzo being am ain charact on MT is what kept Kermit out of the host position. I think if we are to...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets' Wizard of Oz

    You have no sense of humor. it was all in jest. It wasn't about sending messages to kids, it was about joking around. Piggy's skinny line will not turn young girls into ridiculously skinny super models. Clam down. And why are you calling Ashanti trashy? I didn't see anything trashy about...

    Why is Steve Whitmire the voice of Kermit?

    It was really touching to see Kermit show up at the end. The way they were talking about Kermit in the special it was if we would not see him or hear him again. When he showed up at the end it was like Kermit saying everything will be ok. I'm not sure why it too longer to get Steve as...

    Who does Rizzo play in OZ?

    Rizzo had a fair sized role. He showed up 2 more times in the movie to delivery great lines. Also, Steve plays Rizzo and Kermit, so it is tough to have them together.

    Positive Oz Rating Breakdown

    You also have like 5 channels. The US has litterally hundreds. Plus it was a friday night which is a bad night for TV in general. The addition of Star Wars at the movies didn't help either.
