Just because one character is a chain smoker, doesn't mean the whole company supports tobbacco.

Actually, lots of Muppets have smoked cigarettes, cigars, and pipes. From SS to S&F, so it's nothing new. And how do you know it's an addiction? I never really thught it was a big deal, children are already exposed to it on TV, if not in their own environment.

Yeah, it's a shame that there isn't much of an uproar over Henson promoting forced child labor...

OH Bobby Benson. I never realised but I don't think it's a big deal at all. Just because you see a character do something doesn't mean a company is promoting that something. Heck, in TMM Piggy and Kermit got drunk on cheap sparkling wine, but i doubt any kids who saw the movie went out and got drunk. :big_grin:
