This is just a guess here, but maybe the show was featuring the talents of Caroll Spinney in the same way the Muppet show featured Frank Oz.
But there you go... AAAHH!!!!
The Muppet SHow - how many times does Fozzie talk to Piggy? Or Fozzie talk to Sam? Or Piggy talk to Sam? Or any of them talk to Animal? Or any of the above with George, Marvin Suggs, etc, etc?
Answer: NEVER! (or hardly ever!)
The Kermit/Rowlf thing in the Muppet Movie was a special one-off thing, so don't dare bring that up!
But on Sesame Street Big Bird and Oscar had REGUALR SCENES TOGETHER!!!!!
