    Actually I was just guessing. I recall another site that said that it was either Roscoe, Hal or Matt as Gordon depending on how old that sketch/song was, but maybe I'm wrong about that.

    Billy Barkhurst

    That's not a bad idea. I thought Billy did a fair job as Ernie. Like I mentioned on the other thread, I'm not too big on the idea of Matt doing Kermit since he sort of already has his hands full with Jerry's characters. It would be nice to see what Billy can do with :).

    So it was Pete. He sounded a little different than in the Xfinity commercial, but I guess it's understandable that the voice would improve over time.

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

    Yeah. That does give us some insight on the incident on America's Got Talent back in '09. It does seem like Disney did want to fire Steve back then, but they may have brought him back 'by popular demand.' To quote the song from MMW. They may have been on and off with considering that...

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

    Actually, Denise broke up with Kermit, it seems. But I see where it's a little vague because Denis suspected that :) was still in love with :mad:. Though that is another thing that got to me. The Kermit/Piggy relationship was never fully resolved in the last episode of The Muppets. I mean we...

    That will do, Sunny. I can always fast forward. Thanks. Also, thanks for the suggestion Pig's Laundry but I think you have to pay with credit card to use Hulu or something like that.

    Sorry for the double post, but is there anyway someone could upload the parts with the Muppets here? I missed quite a bit of those.

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets on WE Day Friday August 4, 2017

    Yeah. I guess it's possible that Steve could have pre-recorded the lines before he was fired, but that probably would have been pretty far back.

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets on WE Day Friday August 4, 2017

    Now this will be on CBS's website, right? I missed a few parts with the Muppets, so I'd like to watch those parts again if I get a chance. Also, does anyone know who performed Statler now that Steve's gone? It did sound like Steve. Could it have been Peter Linz who performed him in that...

    Yeah. I heard, so there's a chance there may be one with Matt or Hal as Gordon. We'll have to keep our eyes and ears open.

    So did anyone notice that "Surprise" song was on YT? I noticed it was up there yesterday, but I was wondering if anyone else has. I know we've been asking about that one for a while.

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

    I understand that. I remember watching Mr. Willobee's Christmas Tree with my family the year it was on and my sister was complaining all through the special about how :) didn't sound right. (Which is weird because that one came a few years after MCC.) I'm sorry. I was just stating that I...

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

    Another update that's sort of on a related topic, I read a news article about how Sabrina Carpenter of Girl Meets World fame was sued for not paying her road managers commission after firing them. How this relates to the Steve Whitmire issue goes back to what I was saying before about how...

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

    True, I'll never forget the sketch with the fish Lyle and Tabbot and Bert's famous line: I DON'T KNOW WHO THAT IS!!! Definitely sounded like Frank ad-libbing there. :)

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

    I can't help but wonder maybe that could be why they've been delaying the TOTW, they could be reconsidering having Matt play Kermit. Again, Kermit has played off of a lot of Jerry's characters who Matt had recently inherited, so they'd have to do more than recast Robin. They'll have to either...

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

    Yeah. I didn't catch that until now, but he did inherit :sympathy: and :D from :jim:. It will be interesting to listen when I get a chance and hear his thoughts on that matter and how taking over other characters are different from performing his own character: :rolleyes:.

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

    Well, I guess because Steve's Kermit improved over time, they wanted to rerecord the voice so he sounded more like Kermit. I guess they just weren't all that successful with that attempt. Also, thanks Mo, for that video you posted, but I think that's still the 'deeper voice' one that I saw...
