Michael Eisner's long-standing passion and respect for the Muppets

Passion, huh? Does Kermit have competition?

[Notasoccermom]

Can't you just see it now? Kermit hanging on Mickey's ears. Of course Miss Piggy will have a real complex hanging around with Sleeping Beauty and Snow White.

I'm surprised the family even considered selling it again. They were so happy to get control back. If I remember correctly, one of their biggest gripes was not having a say in anything pertaining to the use of the Muppets after Jim Henson died. Funny how money can make you forget any and all principles.

Michael Eisner's long-standing passion ...

Eisner's "The Passion of the Frog"
--- shudder --- the images it conjures!

They're planning on giving Miss Piggy eight times the exposure that Janet Jackson got.

So what does this do for a FarScape Movie?

[SandRat]

Under Eisner's control and the low wages he pays for everyone but himself this could be the next Muppet Special.

[antiRepublicrat]

Kiss any future quality Muppet features goodbye. I wonder if Eisner will screw them as he screwed the current Pooh family -- they're suing.

[Beck_isright]

Great. Now Eisner can make gay pornos with frogs. Just what our children need to see.

Uh..oh..., this means Bert & Ernie will be the official leaders in the Gay Pride parade :-(
