Which just goes to show how liberal Israel's broadcasting networks are. Pigs aren't kosher (in fact, they're the symbol of everything that's not), yet the Muppets were among the most popular characters here even after Jim Henson's tragic passing. In fact, my brother has Jim Henson's autograph (or, more accurately, Kermit's). Miss Piggy was not deleted or censored here, even though she is a pig and played by a man who must struggle hard to give her a proper voice. Oct 31 05, 11:44 PM
