* Rusty no longer roosts at the CBC and neither does his old puppet pal, Jerome the Giraffe. But nostalgic fans won't have to wait too long to learn where their new home will be.

Are you kidding? that bit was the highlight of the show. And I bet Bob would have liked those who grew up with them to enjoy them once again, even if only for a couple minutes in a "tasteless" skit... but then again I never knew the guy lol

The skit was tasteless and not funny at all. i am not at all surprised that the family requested the puppets back from people who would allow the memory of "The Friendly Giant" to be besmearched like that.
