Should Kermit have interacted with Zoe more often?

I know Kermit interacted with Zoe twice dancing with each other on Everybody Be Yo'Self and part one of the Hurricane story but do you think Kermit should have interacted with Zoe more often? Here are some suggestions. Kermit helps Zoe draw a Z and K on the screen, Kermit interviews Zoe on the first day of day care but is nervous about it, Kermit and Zoe talk about opposites, Kermit helps Zoe count to twenty, Kermit and Zoe talk about colors, Kermit and Zoe sing I Wonder 'Bout the World Above Up There, Kermit helps Zoe come up with words that start with the letter L and Kermit and Zoe could appear in a puppetry event if Steve and Fran could attend together.

Well there's a lot of factors at stake here. First of all after Jim henson died in 1990, they didn't have Steve's Kermit in any new material for quite some time. Zoe made her debut in 1993, after Jim had been gone for 3 years. I think Kermit finally started making new apearances performed by Steve in Season 28 but after Season 32, was written out of the show since SS lost their rights to him. I think if Kermit and Zoe were actually on the show longer, or if Jim had never passed on, Kermit and Zoe would have had a lot of memorable skits together. Heck, even during the 5 years Kevin's Elmo and Jim's Kermit were on the show together they had some memorable and funny skits together.

Hey remember when they had SS characters introducing a segment from seasons 30-32? Zoe could have introduced a skit featuring Kermit in season 30.

I do remember seeing one with Grover. He said "Froggy, Froggy... where are you Froggy?" then he looked at the camera and said "Froggy! there you are!" I remember being sort of disapointed when I saw this because I actually thought it was a new Kermit and Grover skit with Steve's Kermit. But it was just a rerun of an old Kermit skit being shown. I dont think Steve's Kermit was used very much on Sesame Street to be honest with you.

Oh if Steve was availabe for SS material more often, Kermit would have interacted Zoe more often.
