There is a Venn diagram floating around of puppets, muppets, and The Muppets. All muppets are puppets, but not all muppets are members of The Muppets. But all Muppets are muppets and puppets.

You said Muppets so many times I started questioning how the word was said...

I'm already so mad at Disney about The Muppet Show not coming back because they want a new twist, and this nonsense is not helping. We truly live in one of the bad timelines.

I can't go down this rabbit hole to fight about but basically you're wrong. I won't be taking any questions

All that and you left out the fact that Muppet is derived from Moppet + Puppet, to mean they were hairy puppets (2/3rds of all Muppets are hairy or have frizzy, kinky or fuzzy fur/felt skin), as the word Moppet meant hairy, curly or kinky hair. This is confirmed further by the fact there isn't a single Muppet with smooth skin (made of non-felt).

Okay, but Disney has honestly never known exactly what to do with The Muppets. Honestly it has been a very strange and embarrassing situation, I honestly hope that sooner or later The Muppets are sold to a different company that knows what to do with them.

this reminds me of Stonehenge. because of Stonehenge, other similar things became known as henges. they eventually came up with a definition of what a henge was.... and it didn't include Stonehenge. stone henges are named after Stonehenge but it's not a henge

"creatures" was used for more realistic puppets, like dark crystal and farscape. I remember seeing a chart or something about that, dunno how the JH Co. deals with that now

There’s only one definition of muppet I will accept: it’s not quite a mop, and it’s not quite a puppet, but man… so to answer your question, I don’t know.

Not all Muppets are muppets. Marionette + puppet = muppet. So you need hand rods. Characters like Ernie and Rowlf have two performers (one as the extra hand) and are therefore not technically muppets.

So what I'm hearing is this is a golden opportunity to make a young child cry by telling them their stuffed toy is NOT a Muppet and they will be sued by Mickey Mouse if they say it is again.

It’s all pretty simple, it’s just made to sound complex because business are control freaks. The end.
