This is a case of a scene being deleted and removing a plot point. Fred presents the horror show and had been complaining about the poor technology. When the Gremlins first come into his studio, he thinks that they are new puppets for the horror show. When he calls the Gremlins his "friends", they all grunt and seem to accept the offer of friendship.
Although this scene was deleted from the theatrical release, it can be found in "Deleted Scenes" sections on DVDs. It was also retained in the novelisation by David Bischoff.

No. Gremlins 2 is based on a screenplay written by American screenwriter Charles S. Haas with characters created by filmmaker Chris Columbus. Gremlins 2 is a sequel to Gremlins (1984) (1984).
Although they don't need two sexes to reproduce, that doesn't mean that they have no gender. The movie indicates that they're all males and that one was turned into a female (credited as "Greta") through genetic chemicals in the lab (you can see the broken vial with a "Venus" symbol by her feet).
When the movie ran in theatres, it featured a scene where the gremlins take over the theatre and Hulk Hogan intimidates them into running the rest of the movie. On videotape, this was changed to a scene where gremlins take over your television set, and John Wayne takes them on. The Hulk Hogan version was used on the DVD, but the John Wayne version is also on the DVD as an easter egg. To find it on the DVD; go to the Special Features menu, move the cursor to "Gag Reel" or "Theatrical Trailer," then press right, highlighting the gremlin hand—select that, and the scene will play.
The movie is never being shown uncensored in the UK's afternoon TV programmes. The cuts make the movie less terrifying for children and other impressionable people. They also don't come up as easily with the idea of imitating scenes from the movie—an activity that has for a long time been of great concern to censors there. Additionally, alcohol is not being depicted as vital for one character's survival. Only two real censorings seem to have been made.
