Who does the VOICES for these now?
I recognize Frank Oz for Grover, but not for Bert.

Not to my knowledge. I'm wondering if that's Peter Lynns voicing Ernie though.

If Jim Henson were alive today,
do you think he would allow/participate in this?

We used to have a thread regarding whether Jim would approve of current productions. I don't see why he would be opposed to the Sesame characters involved in these Farmer's Insurance commercials, it's no different than the batch of Mastercard commercials with characters from The Muppet Show back in 2004 or the American Express commercial he starred in himself surrounded by Muppet monsters.
