Was Jim Henson Snubbed on Regis Retrospective?

Thursday's Live program showed a reel of celebs interviewed on the program who had since passed. Everyone from Anna Nicole to Sammy Davis Jr. was featured in this long montage as Josh Grobin sung a ballad. If I recall, Jim Henson gave Live on of his final interviews in 1990. Is there any reason why he was left out? It couldn't be for time. Maybe Regis himself didn't interview him? Maybe an oversight? Bu this program was on ABC directly after the Muppets had taken over Good Morning America. Been wondering about this for a day. Did I just blink and miss Jim's inclusion? Wasn't Regis honored along side Jim as Disney Legends both at this year's D23 conference? I know this is a nitpick among so much wonderful goodness. I'm just kind of weirded out such a weird ball being dropped. Was it, though? :confused:

You bring up a great point, and I hope someone has some insight on this.
