I never loved them in the first place. It seems to have been a development stage I skipped and have never understood the appeal either when I was a kid or as an adult.
Probably because I skipped Sesame Street completely as a kid (went straight on to 3-2-1 Contact, Electric Company and CNN Headline News) and therefore didn't have the infant/toddler introduction to them. Doing a crossword puzzle I learned a couple weeks ago that Bert and Ernie live together; I knew of both characters but not this apparently dumbfoundingly obvious detail.
A girlfriend at the time caused me to see A Muppet Christmas Carol in the theater and I think I've seen The Great Muppet Caper at some point. Various episodes of the TV show over the years. A lot of the Muppet Babies cartoon mixed in with other Saturday morning toons.
I did like Fraggle Rock, though.
