Kermit the Frog is one of the most iconic characters ever created. Jim Henson' The Muppets took the world by storm, and has carried a legacy of comedic entertainment for almost 50 years. But when Disney acquired The Muppets from The Jim Henson Company, one performer started pushing back to preserve the legacy of Kermit the Frog and ended up being let go from the iconic character.

Kermit hasn't sounded the same since Jim died.

They all sound like trash now...

The sad irony that when the late Mr. Henson created Kermit, Kermit was his puppet that was otherwise mute and lifeless that he could make say or do whatever he wanted. Nowadays, as the departed Mr. Whitmore found out, increasingly it's the puppeteer who is the puppet of the Henson heirs/Disney!

Ya and they arent as good as Jimmy was :(

I cant stand hearing how aweful they sound now!!
