If these webisodes and ESPN pieces are so trivial and wasteful of the performers' time, then why bother producing them at all? <BR/><BR/>The answer is that MHC wants the flexibility to use whatever performer they want for whatever appearance they want. <BR/><BR/>There is also some suggestion -- anonymous, but credible -- that this recasting is actually taking paid work from the key Muppet performers. Were Dave Goelz and Steve Whitmire offered these jobs, or did MHC unilaterally decide to use these other puppeteers? <BR/><BR/>If the answer is the latter, then this work by Yerrid and Massey, however talented they may be, amounts to scab labor.<BR/><BR/>kynanb@gmail.comTelevision's Kynan Barkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02240978481255418319noreply@blogger.com
