Debbie Harry is magnificent, but something about the Muppets, especially Kermit... Surprisingly performers tend to just end up treating them like other actors instead of puppets. Henson and crew had (and some of the crew still has) an ability to get folks to temporarily forget it is just a puppet, and the results are sometimes just magic. I think that is why Jim Henson Workshop and alums are still so sought after for TV and move productions. Yeah, we can do basically anything on screen with CG, but the actors (and sometimes directors) suspending their own disbelief and treating a puppet as a character is a whole other level. Reportedly during filming of Mandalorian, Werner Herzog was giving direction/acting advice directly to the Grogu puppet ;)
