do yeah i remember watching that when i was young like a wee lad you know and growing up and you know it's just even though jim's not here his legacy still lives on, and Kermit is still, to this day, is still ringing in my ears, whether it's Jim Henson voicing him or Steve Whitmire, who took over for Jim Henson after he unfortunately passed away in the early 90s.

So i- again, it, it's a weird thing that I don't think they planned out very well because they are trying to make this document that is, "Hey, you're gonna make some Muppet stuff.
Kevin BrackettHOST
