  • Kermit Meets His New Wife, Katrina
    Kermit Meets His New Wife, Katrina Katrina discusses marriage here, as she and her mother join her step-father in their new home in real life. This was probably quite a challenging change for her, and she did not want to discuss her feelings about it. The first three stories describe her meeting Kermit, falling in love, having a wedding and enjoying a honeymoon. She explores topics such as divorce, marriage, love, autism, and her own identity as a "human who likes Braille and frogs." Hi ho, Kermit the Frog here, I have been married over thirty-four years. My wife Miss Piggy and I had been married since 1984 in Muppets Take Manhattan. But somehow, our marriage ended in a divorce because we always fought with each other. I don't like Miss Piggy because she's dowdy, violent, and aggressive to me. I decided I don't want to marry Miss Piggy ever again. So when I moved out of Hollywood where the Muppets movies were made in 2015, I looked for a new wife. My new wife could be anywhere on Sesame Street. First, I tried Abby Cadabby, the fairy in training. She showed me how to change things into pumpkins, and dance like a fairy. Maybe I can marry Abby Cadabby, but she's only four years old. Next, I joined Zoe's ballet class and danced with Zoe. I did pirouettes, arabesques, and a sauté perfectly. Maybe Zoe can be my new wife, but I don't do ballet. Third, I painted a picture with Julia.
