I would have to believe you are correct in assuming it was a coincidence

Another one of Steve Whitmires characters, Lips, got smacked in the door (by doc) in A Muppet family Christmas. do you think steve whitmire likes to get his arm smacked in the door, or could it be a coincidence (probably the latter)?
Haha, maybe his characters just get pushed around alot. :smile:

But he was portraying a character. As long as Kermit is our leading frog then he is recieving the respect he deserves.

In "The Muppets Celebrate Jim Henson" Bean was running the projector and he messed up and got the film all over him. Funny stuff :big_grin:

Yeah, atleast his own original characters do I guess. Look at Rizzo. He gets walked on all the time too.

Also, the whole idea of Bean being the "cute one that gets beat up all the time" reminds me a little of Grover. He is the self-proclaimed cute one on Sesame Street and he is almost always long-suffering!
