Happy Birthday to the legendary Jerry Juhl, whose wit and imagination brought life—and chaos—to our favorite Muppet friends! From scripting Kermit's heartfelt wisdom to Gonzo's daring stunts gone hilariously wrong, your words have given generations laughter that never fades. Your timeless humor continues inspiring smiles as wide as Fozzie Bear’s jokes are corny.Whether it was crafting Miss Piggy's diva-worthy tantrums or Statler and Waldorf’s sarcastic balcony banter, you made every moment unforgettable. Today we celebrate a writer who taught us it's okay being green—or blue or furry—as long as you're funny doing it. Happy birthday, Jerry—Wocka Wocka forever!
