THEY'RE FINALLY GETTING DIVORCED!
>DIVORCED!
Thats a forbidden word for Disney.

Good. The idea is that at the end of the movie, they live happily ever after. Not "then they lived with marital difficulties until they broke up"

I'm guessing Aladdin threw some acid in jasmines face?
>>81167220
Then why did they have Mr. and Mrs. The Frog get divorced?

Jasmine's getting stoned for adultery.

I was watching Muppets Take Manhattan earlier today with my mother, and she mentioned how Kermit and Miss Piggy got Divorced in the new Muppet Show.
Put a damper on my day, but it shows that Disney is either branching out or getting stupid.

Were they even married in the first place?
I thought they were just dating.

the show starts out with them having been separated, and the whole season plays out a will-they-wont-they regarding getting back together
>>81167503Is the show good?
>>81167413
The Muppets is Disney?
>>81168624___________________no_______
>>81168624i like it, but /co/ regularly accuses me of having shit taste
>>81167413
That was just a movie. The wedding doesn't count. Even that Segel movie had Kermit and Piggy's falling out being based entirely on Piggy insisting that the wedding in the movie was real.

Gets better midway through, starting around the Christmas episode.
Uncle Deadly is the show's MVP

Disney has owned the Muppets and Bear in the Big Blue House since 2004.
The Jim Henson Company kept the creature shop movies and Fraggle Rock and CTW has full custody of Sesame Street.
>>81168719
Where have you been? Disney acquired them after Jim Henson's death.
>>81168874
Nope. The deal in the 90s fell apart after Jim died and Eisner became way more interested in having the Sesame characters and shilling them to a point of destroying their educational credibility. The Sesame character were never part of the deal, Jim wanted them to go full custody to CTW.
They were at least able to work out a distribution deal in the 90s, which gave us Christmas Carol, Treasure Island and Muppets Tonight, but towards the end of the 90s, the Jim Henson Company was bought out by the Germans, specifically a company called EM.TV
The Germans didn't really do much with them and the Henson family was able to buy back the company and then finally sold the Muppets and Bear in the Big Blue House to Disney. They did this instead of being fully absorbed because Brian wanted to do more puppetry aimed for adults, hence the Puppet Up improv show and other endeavors of varied limited success. But that doesn't really pay the bills, but doing bad looking mo-cap CGI puppetry for PBS does and that's why we have Sid the Science Kid and Dinosaur Train.

Divorce is actually really easy in Islam - there are actually prostitutes in Arabic countries who work 'legally' by marrying the guy for a few hours and then getting divorced.
>>81167413
the muppets just play different roles in different stories. in this one theyre ex stage partners who had a romance but broke up later. as they show eventually, neither of them really wanted to, and they're almost certain to get back together.
it's not THE the muppets, like canon or anything. half the cast are basement dwellers

4 out of 5 marriages based on pretending to be a monarch of a fictionalized nation assisted by a demon end in divorce. It never stops being sad.
