Don Music got written out of Sesame Street because he way he would hurt himself all the time, like banging his head on his piano, for some reason, alot of kids were doing the same. So they just took him off of Sesame Street. I think for the other Sesame Street Muppets, they just didn't interest anyone. Herbert Bridsfoot was brought in to replace Kermit the Frog as the older wiser Muppet, but Herbert was too dull, so out he went.
There are many characters in shows and other things that got written off. I can't think of more examples right now. But thier are many reasons as too why they got written off, like mention already some people may found the character offensive. There are still many reasons as to why, another example is that the writers just can't think of anything for them. Maybe the writers just don't like him, a good example of that one is Fleet Scribbler from the Muppet show. Sometimes the producers or whatever are having porblems with the actors, good example of that one is when the father died on the tv show Good Times. That's the way showbiz is, in the end.
