I didn't see it. Why doesn't Disney ever send out a press release when characters/performers are going to make an appearance?? That just irks me!

Talking about waking up earlier, Diz/MHC needs to plain ol' wake up. Time for them to get busy with some stuff and quit riding on the coat-tails of everything Retro-Muppet. Although, they do need to watch it all and study it to remember what it was that made the Muppets great.

As far as I know, I've heard from different people that the main PLAN right now to get the Muppets back into the public eye isn't a movie, tv series, or a special--it's getting them to guest spot on other TV shows.

TV shows that they don't tell us about, so a majority doesn't get to see it, and the rest of us are waking up to see the last few minutes.

Martin Baker/Debbie McClellan--c'mon! You can do better than this!

That's pretty cool in and of itself though. Imagine, having a muppet on your shoulder for most of your last show celibrating with you! I definately agree though; a little notice would have been nice...

While it's always cool to see Kermit, I have to agree, I'm tired of seeing Kermit appear on other people's show.

Disney's dollars can do a lot better then that.

The Muppets, (mainly Kermit) seem to have become like those TV-stars of the past that they couldn't find a job and all they ended up doing was being on 'Hollywoood Squares' or 'Match Game' or '$25,000 Pyramid' before they disappeared from fame.

The money that is behind the Disney empire can do a lot with the Muppets and all we end up with is a personal appearance on someone else's show.
That's sad.

What next? Kermit on 'The View'? Ugh.
