"We're going to Disney World!"
I'm of mixed feelings about the report that Disney is buying the Muppets from the Henson family. Certainly, I'm happy for the Henson family that they're getting a big payday out of the deal. But I don't see that the Disney suits will allow the Muppets to have the wonderfully cranky, individual character that they presently have. I foresee Gonzo, Animal, Statler & Waldorf, and all the others being dumbed down and cuted up to fit the Disney mold, and that will be a loss.
