Riddle me this kiddos...

If you were placed in charge of producing a new Muppet Show in the vein of the classic variety program and were given complete creative control with one exception... Kermit is not the host! 

Now we all know Kermit is a great emcee and stage manager but what if it was a scenario similar to Muppets Tonight or the ABC reboot, where another Muppet was the host of a variety show and while not gone Kermit would just play a bit of a bit part as the producer.

Now here's the kicker

If you were to make a new Muppet Show which Muppet would you cast as the host of the whole show?

There are no wrong answers, respond down below your pick and why you think they'd be a great emcee and after the first ten responses I'll reveal my pick.

Enjoy and have fun


EDIT:
I decided to make a list of the current contenders and here's the possible contenders:
*Gonzo
*Walter(x2)

After rewatching the Amazon Rocky and Bullwinkle series I gotta say its alright but to me the voices and new personalities are a bit offputting. Since in this new series both Rocky and Bullwinkle are complete idiots. So I decided to recast the main leads and the main baddies, based off my redesigns.

In case you didn't hear it was announced earlier today that next year a new series starring the Muppets will premiere on the Disney+ streaming service, and.................. I have doubts.


Instead of being a variety show or a mockumentary like the ABC series, this show under the odd name Muppets Live Another Day“ is set to take place immediately after 1984's The Muppets Take Manhattan where for some reason Kermit breaks up the Muppets(AGAIN) but now has to get them back AGAIN to help find there missing friend Rowlf the Dog. WHAT?!?! And it'll have Josh Gad developing the series and starring as one of the leads.

This is 11 herbs and spices of confusing. Why would Rowlf go missing, why would Kermit break off the group? And WHY Josh Gad?

I feel like Disney is slowly losing the point of the Muppets and is just retreading old stuff so what else is new, also its odd that they're basing this series off the one Muppet movie Disney doesn't own the rights to and is arguably one of the more weaker films, so why have this be the catalyst for a new series starring these beloved characters? But on the bright side, the movie did give us the Muppet Babies so leave as that as you will. 

Honestly I'm doubtful of this announcement maybe it'll be good maybe it won't who knows we'll just have to wait next year to find out.

I've decided to do something different

Down below is a link to show off my choices for voice actors for a potential re reimagining of Winnie the Pooh. After seeing Christopher Robin it got me thinking about who I'd pick to voice these beloved characters instead of defaulting to Jim Cummings not that he's bad he's an amazing actor and I have nothing but respect for his amazing talent over the years but decided to think outside the box and find other voices for the silly old bear and his cohorts.


Please respond below with your opinion and feelings with my choices. Enjoy

I am considering doing a series of text interviews with artists from Deviantart and hopefully other platforms like Tumblr and eventually animation professionals. And it'll be called "Artist's Palette!" The whole point of this series is to discuss the artist's creative process, what causes there creativity to flow out, talking about influences they have and discuss the hardships that come to the art world. I know its very standard but I always appreciated reading and hearing interviews whether they be actors/artists or animators(Don't ya just love alliteration) that usually helps me with my creative endeavors and I  hope that this series will serve as an inspiration to others out there to see what makes there favorite artists tick and how they home in there artistic merits.

But first I need help. If you are interested or know someone who might be interested in being an interviewee please note me for details and we will engage in conversation privately in notes. Which will then be edited for the general public to read.

Thank You
