#Bert and Ernie are iconic as Bert and Ernie regardless of whatever else you call them

[gremlinshatephilosophers]

Seeing the m&g picture of Dan and Phil with the Bert and Ernie dolls is making me so happy like… they ARE Bert and Ernie. Honestly half the discourse on this site about a “hard launch” you could just… substitute in Bert and Ernie and it makes sense.

Like nobody’s questioning the muppet couple who’ve lived together half their lives and have separate beds and call each other best friend and never explicitly said they were together.

They’re iconic for being Bert and Ernie, it doesn’t matter what a grumpy show writer decides to call them.
