Kermit the Frog Consultants for Disney Channel's Amphibia!
Kermit hopped over to Disney's Television Animation offices to serve as “frog consultant” on the new series Amphibia.
You watch Kermit give “advice” to the show's creative team below:
That's still not all, as Kermit will moderate a panel for The Disney Channel at the D23 Expo next month!
Kermit will be taking the cast and crew of Disney’s Amphibia and Big City Greens.
It's nice to see that Disney hasn't completely forgotten about The Muppets, but instead of giving them they're own show, they'll just use them to plug other series. As Kermit would say Sheesh!

RIP H. Ross Perot
H. Ross Perot, the Texas billionaire who ran for president twice as a third-party candidate, has died.
Muppet fans will remember him as the inspiration for Sesame Street's H. Ross Parrot who, like the real Perot, used charts and graphs to explain difficult topics.
H. Ross Parrot first appeared in the spring of 1993, to promote the use of the alphabet.
According to Muppet Wiki:
"Perot himself responded to the character in an appearance on Good Morning America in 1993, laying out his thoughts on the spoof: "No. 1, the nose is too small...No. 2, it's not a real Texas accent. We've got to help him there. No. 3, my family loves it, my grandchildren love it. No. 4, the Birds of the World organization is up in arms about it."[2] He additionally told Newsweek, "I'm sure that parrot thinks he's much better looking than I am."
