NEW MuppetsHenson Poll: Thursday May 16th, 2013 will mark the 23rd Anniversary of Jim Henson's Death. If he was alive today he would have been 77 years old. One of Jim's biggest wishes was that The Muppets would live on forever even after he was gone. This was one of his original reasons to sell The Muppets to Disney back in 1989, which fell apart after his death. Disney eventually purchased The Muppets in 2004. Do you think that Jim Henson would be happy with the current state of The Muppet franchise in 2013? Would he be happy with how Disney has portrayed his characters?​
