Were There Any Kermit References On Teenage Robot

I just want to know if there were any Kermit references on My Life as a Teenage Robot?

Last night while I was watching tv during a Sister Sister rerun they made some obscure reference to Sesame Street, I can't really remember WHAT was said but I think it was along the lines of "they wouldn't do that on Sesame Street".
Oh, I'm a big "Sister Sister" fan, so I'll respond to this one.

What happened was Lisa (the mother) needed money to send Tia to a private school, so she called PBS to see if she could get the money back that she donated in the pledge drive. Then she said "They don't use that kind of language on 'Sesame Street.'"

By the way, I also have a big list of Muppet references on "Family Guy." It's in the "You might be an obsessed Muppet fan" thread.

Cookie Monster, Big Bird, and Elmo were on American Dad last Sunday.

And on the Fresh Prince Will Smith said, "I know how you feel, this is just like when I found out Kermit the Frog was just a piece of green felt with someone's hand up his butt.":big_grin:

Peter "Have they ever shown him doing somebody in and then feeding on him?"

Brian "...You're asking if they've ever done a Sesame Street in which the Count kills somebody and then sucks their blood for sustenance."

Peter "Yeah."

Brian "No, they've never done that."

Here's a couple more.

First, on Jackie Chan adventures, Jade absorbs the energy of a wind demon, causing here to become frog-like. She uses here newly gained powers to defeat some bad guys, and replies "Being green ain't so bad"


Then on Family guy (I don't know how to put this as inoffensively as possible, or if it'll go through the swear filter) Peter loses his family, Cleveland takes care of the kids. Desperate to get them back, he has to prove Cleveland is an unfit parent. He gets... umm.... a group of "Working Girls" to go into his house. Cleveland and the child services Associate walk in seeing these "ladies of the evening" sitting around. Peter says "Look how many pr*st*t*s there are!" and they are counted (to 7) in a manner exactly like they were in the Baker falling down stairs skit. (including on screen number text)

There was one just on "Reno 911!" where a children's show host is filming a show with the cops. This personality has a humanoid radish puppet as a sidekick, but everyone notices the radish. Junior is telling him, it's the same thing when someone sees a picture of Jim Henson, that they'll think of Kermit first.
