The Muppet Show

It's time to play the music.
It's time to light the lights.
A new show with the Muppets premiers for us tonight!

It's great that they're continuing their legacy of guest stars.

I used to watch this all the time. I remember John Denver and Rocky. Good times. My fear is that Disney will spin it into garbage like my other childhood memories they tried to rebrand.

Disney recently did "Muppets Mayhem," a miniseries about the Electric Mayhem. It was awesome.

It's just a one-off special, sadly. But maybe if it's successful they'll make a series.

What happened to the Miss Piggy Talkshow they did a few years back? I think thats the last time I engaged with the Muppets, I wasnt impressed. I didnt even know that there had been anything else since.

The Muppet Show however could be a nostalgia treat, loved it as a child, but got more cynical with age. I do recall when Alice Cooper was the guest star, Crystal Gayle, Harry Belafonte - wow, the "my grandmother watched the show" joke between the new guest and Miss Piggy really hits home!

I hope it does well and they haven't used up the best jokes and innuendos in this trailer

It looks good. I have a personal hang-up I've never gotten over of the replacement voices never hitting my ear right, sadly. For me Henson's Kermit is iconic and indelible.
