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

    Unless Steve probably became too demanding and made it harder for The Muppets Studio to crank out more product. :sympathy:

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

    Let's hope that the head honchos of The Muppets Studio (Debbie McClellan and Kyle Laughlin) will reveal their reasons for firing Steve soon.

    I think Peter Linz could do Rizzo justice.

    They don't have bottomless cash reserves, you know. :rolleyes:

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

    I doubt that. They must've tried to make it work many, many, many, many, MANY times already and it is just now that they came to a point that it really wasn't practical and that it was time to give up on the whole thing.

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

    Another theory I heard from somewhere else that I can see being a very strong possibility: Steve lives in Georgia while most of the other Muppeteers live in either New York or California. And the top brass probably got fed up over the fact that Steve had a much longer commute to those places...

    Again, nobody knows the whole story, but you shouldn't make such false accusations either.

    Disney DOES! If you'd read those Reddit threads, you might comprehend everything a lot better. :rolleyes:

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

    The Muppets Studio DOES want what's best for the Muppets, no matter what! You and others are only saying such irrational things out of mere knee jerk reactions and not knowing the whole story. :mad:

    Actually, Steve later re-recorded those lines.

    Disney DOES have interest in the Muppets, so take your pessimism elsewhere! :grouchy:

    Where are all these classic Sesame Street episodes coming from?

    I still want to know what happened during episode 498.

    Episode 498

    There have been a number of occasions where scenes that were previously used as part of street stories in earlier episodes get reused as inserts in later episodes. And this seems to be one of those cases. If the Youtube comments are to be believed, "Imagination" originated in Epsiode 0498 as...
