While it's not exactly letting the cat out of the bag that Bert and Ernie were more than just roommates, this is stupid. What daytime cartoon character / stuffed animal children's show host gets married? Straight or gay? If heterosexual marriage, romantic love, or relationships other than 'friendship and family' are themes above your target audience, then gay marriage ... I mean, how ridiculous would that be?

It's almost like 40 year old liberals want to see this as a wierd nostalgic remake to entertain themselves, and get off on shocking kids while they're at it. Which is just bizarre on a lot of levels. This whole thing is so odd I don't even know how to process it.

IS EVERYTHING ABOUT SEX in the classroom anymore?

Responses:
Yes, it's a great way to teach young viewers a valuable lesson 12%

No, it would be out of place on a children's TV show 86%

I'm not sure 2%

I hope these nuts who advocated this pretend marriage between two puppets learn a valuable lesson from the results of this poll.

Well, Miss Piggy and Kermit did have a movie where it was implied the marriage was real.

But this is ridiculous. They just want to co-opt generational characters as candidates for gay marriage because no one would care about some newly introduced characters married off. Next target will be re-making the Odd Couple just so they can have a gay union. Then Laverne and Shirley will reunite for a lesbian union. Let’s just ruin every platonic relationship that has ever existed and teach the example no relationship can be devoid of sexual undertones.
