Kermit outdoors and in full form in songs

[minor muppetz]

Has anybody else noticed that in almost all of the songs that Kermit has sung on Sesame Street, the songs took place outdoors and Kermit was shown in a full-body form (his legs are seen).

Full-body shots of Kermit appeared in all three Sesame Street versions of Bein' Green, The Frogs in the Glen, A Song From Kermit, Get Along, Bayou Alphabet, On My Pond, Do Op Hop, Tadpole, Caribbean Amphibean, The Heart of a Frog, and We're Alive.

Kermit appeared outdoors in both of his solo versions of Bein' Green (I'm not sure whether the version with Leena Horne is supposed to take place indoors or outdoors), A Song From Kermit, This Frog, Disco Frog, African Alphabet, Bayou Alphabet, I Love My Elbows, Tadpole, On My Pond, We're Alive, I Wonder About the World Above Up There, Carribean Amphibean, Do Op Hop, The Frogs in the Glen, and In the Quiet of the Evening.

Am I forgetting anything?

Interesting observations about Kermit on Sesame Street!

Kermit also sang "Get Along" in the outdoors- in a park area. I don't think his legs were shown though- at least not that I remember right off hand.

What about "My Pollywog Ways", and "If I Were"?

I forgot about that one, but his legs were shown in that one. My Pollywog Ways took place at his home, which eventually turned into a nightclub setting, and from what I can remember, he was only shown from the waist up.

I'm not sure about If I Were. I recall seeing a song with Kermit on Sesame Street a long time ago where he was sitting in the swamp, wearing a different colar (I recall it having a few bright colors and having bells on it). I think his legs were shown there. I think this might be If I Were, but I do not know for sure. I haven't found any pictures from this song on the Muppet Wiki website, and I only recall seeing this segment once, long before I heard If I Were on the Jim Henson: A Sesame Street Celebration album. By then I forgot what the lyrics to the song from the sketch I described were like, but I've always suspected that this is the song. And I know the visuals for all of Kermit's other SS songs that I know about.
