Talk:Kermit the Frog

I like Kermit the frog pictures. I don't have clue what he said. Or how he said it Kermit Just looks kool
I thought Brian Henson voiced Kermit now. The Jim Henson page lists someone else. Anyone certain of this? Did Kermit make any appearances before Sesame Street? -rmhermen
Yes, he did. I saw him on an old Ed Sullivan Show rerun. That crazy frog was on drugs or something. I don't know specifics, though. --Stephen Gilbert
Brian Henson as Kermit is just a popular misconception. Steve Whitmire has taken over Kermit (and Ernie). Other lesser Henson-voiced characters are done by others, or have been retired (as happened to Scooter when his voice died of AIDS).
Kermit was the name (and recognizably the form, if somewhat different) of one of the character's in Sam and Friends -- he's been around in one way or another almost since Jim Henson starting abusing fabric on a professional basis. --Paul Drye
Kermit the Frog was started as a link from Kermit (not the frog). How come it took this before people start creating the Kermit and Henson articles?
The universe is a big place and we have little brushes --Paul Drye
Again, the specter of copyright violation rears its ugly head. :( As much as we love the picture of Kermit the Frog in his entry, I'm about 99% positive that it is *very* copyrighted. It should most likely be removed. Modemac
Copyright shouldn't be a problem here--it's quite clearly fair use. Trademark shouldn't apply here either. If it makes you happier, I'll replace this photo with one of my own stuffed Kermit so we won't have any issue with the copoyright on the original photo. --LDC
It's not about making me happy...it's the fact that Kermit is licensed by Disney these days. And Disney is notorious for protecting its images, as anyone who follows the history of that company will tell you. (They even threatened to sue an elementary school that had Mickey Mouse painted on the wall. I wish I was kidding.) Modemac
- That is justified. It is as if Mickey was supporting the school. However in the context of a history and description of the character, this is justified. -- user:zanimum
I want to say that Lena Horne sang "t's Not Easy Being Green" with Kermit, I am going to have to dive into the record collection for this.
He returned to the Sesame Street newscasts in 2001.
