https://youtube.com/watch?v=RhtnX51dARsOh boy the Muppet Show is coming ba->that Kermit voice>executively produced by Seth Rogen...better luck next time Muppetbros.
I was with people the other day for new years who at best casually know Muppets and when this commercial came up the first thing they asked was wtf is with Kermit's voiceSeriously how the fuck do they think sticking with this guy is acceptable in 2025 when even normalfags can call out how bad it is and that they can probably find someone better?
>>151961820Why does Kermit sound like a mid-2000s Dubya parody?
I hate Seth Rogan so much
>>151961820>Hey, who can we get to voice one of the most iconic characters in American pop culture?>I know a guy>A guy who sounds like him?>No, a guy who can pinch his nose and sound nasally>Perfect, he's hired!>Seth RogenAren't jews supposed to LIKE money? Why did they give the show to this incarnation of brand poison? He won't just make it bomb, he'll ruin it for decades to come like he did everything else he touched.
>>151961820Seth Rogen is the new Kevin Smith "Guy who rapes your childhood"

>>151961820Which one is Piggy?
Hope it will have some edge, the last few muppet projects felt so infantile
>>151961879I still don't buy the reasons for firing Steve. I've read past interviews and articles and his colleagues had nothing but nice things to say about him, including Frank Oz. It's nearly been a fucking decade and his replacement still sounds bad. Steve only took a project or two to refine his voice
>>151962273The "edge" is probably just going to be Trump jokes. The Muppets has been children's media for a long time now, even though it was intended to be general audiences.
>>151961820It's like I'm seeing double!Four piggys!
>>151961820NuMuppets are much more enjoyable if you pretend that these are fake Muppets that Constantine works with for elaborate prison talent shows.>>151962289Apparently there were some instances of him using his "position" as Kermit to keep up-and-coming puppeteers down (for some reason).
What is Sabrina Carpenter's appeal? She looks like a tranny and her songs are just awful girl power pop with more swearing.
You think we'll be back in the reboot?I'm sure we'll be BLACK in the reboot.DOOOOOHOHOHOHO
>>151962289>>151962333What I heard is that he was adamant on keeping Kermit in character. So he was probably fired for pushing back against retarded jokes the retarded female, black and jewish writers came up with.
>>151962131Matt Vogel's been working for the Muppets since 2005. He's basing his Kermit voice off Jim's Kermit, not Steve's. Though I agree. I think he was only chosen for Kermit because he worked a Kermit like puppet with Constantine. Peter Linz, who took over for Ernie, sounds a LOT more like Jim.
>>151962345She's famous. Don't you like celebrities?
still no skeeter?
>>151962548It's hilarious to me that (at the time of that comic being published) Disney had no idea if they actually owned Muppet Babies, and they demanded that Skeeter only be referred to as "Scooter's Sister" until they had conformation.
>>151962582How can they have thousands of lawyers and at the same time not know simple things like what they own or not?
>>151961820so that's why miss piggy was at a sabrina concert
>>151961820not /co/
>>151962496>He's basing his Kermit voice off Jim's Kermit, not Steve's.So did Steve and he molded his Kermit voice from there Matt's been the same odd Jim impression.
>>151962713Could be out of his control. Disney might be hounding him to 'BE THE JIM KERMIT', they fired Steve because he was giving Kermit too much personality.
Well, they rebuilt some characters that haven't been seen since season 1 of the Muppet Show.
>>151961820I wish I believed that modern Hollywood could make the Muppet Show. The world could use some fucking cornball whimsy right now.
>>151961996>>151962131>>151962164Erm, you're being ungrateful, without him we'd never have Amazon Invincible and TMNT Mutant Mayhem featuring the most inspired April O'Neil yet.
To his credit, it seems like none of the Muppets where race swapped.
>>151962164Kevin smith at least made the Clerks cartoon. Seth made Sausage Party which influenced Hazbin Hotel's "humor".
>>151961820I know Steve Whitmire was a bit of an arrogant ass who refused to allow an understudy for Kermit, but if THIS is who Disney thought should be his understudy I understand his attitude.
>>151961820>Seth Rogen continues his rampage against good taste, now with nostalgia-bait puppets
The new Rizzo/Bean puppeteer is actually pretty good at imitating Steve. They should give him a go at Kermit.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YK6Ee4mbcXM
>>151965261>nostalgia-baitEvery fucking time they tried to do something new, no one watched it and asked 'Why not just do the muppet show!?'. Fuck off.
>>151965223Literally none of the people who worked with him, besides Brian Henson, said he was an arrogant ass. Frank Oz, Bill Baretta, Dave Goelz, Noel MacNeal, Kevin Clash, Eric Jacobs, David Rudman, Matt Vogel, all have said he's a lovely person.
>>151962164Kevin Smith made Dogma, something that Rogan can't even approach in his entire repertoire
>>151965502>Kevin ClashEh, the word of a gay pedo nigger probably isn't the greatest
