You mean Clifford? Clifford was supposed a catfish, I think.

Oh god, I've seen that show. I was in the hospital and couldn't change the channel and it was in french.

Now I'm just imagining Jim Henson writing the script with one hand while a Kermit puppet berates him on the other.

I actually know someone who makes the latter thinkpiece's point every time we talk about the Muppets.
