After Kermit’s identity was revealed, a number of viewers took to Twitter to slam the show for including a contestant that is not a real person.

One The Masked Singer fan wrote: “#TheMaskedSinger snail fail… if you are starting to put imaginary characters behind the masks your show has run out of steam. No disrespect to Kermit but that was to silly.”

Alongside a confused gif, another viewer said: “Bro wtf is #themaskedsinger they really unmasked the singer and it was Kermit the Frog…. Like is that not just another costume???”

A third fan chimed in: “Did @MaskedSingerFOX run out of celebrities already and had to fill a spot with a puppet?”

While many fans were annoyed by the episode’s reveal, others admitted they never would have guessed that Kermit was the voice behind the elaborate costume.
