The Muppets on ABC

[Darth Snoopy]

So far this show delivers for me!

This weeks was the best yet. Glad they're breaking away from Fozzie. He was getting kind of annoying. Bring on more characters please. Loved the Scooter stuff. Loved the Electric Mayhem stuff. Still not digging Denise. Glad Uncle Deadly seems to have stepped up as well.

Now I want a Gonzo-centric episode please. And the more Rizzo & Pepe the better.

So much show, not enough time.

ABC’s ‘The Muppets’ Is Changing Showrunners And Planning A Relaunc | UPROXX

Despite ratings rivaling those of Fresh Off the Boat, ABC has been disappointed by The Muppets because it is a “marquee title” that “has been held to a different standard.”
There are also creative concerns, which is leading to a showrunner change after only six episodes.
The series will be undergoing a “relaunch” in the spring.

I caught the last half of last night's episode, and that was the first I saw of this series. I didn't blow me away, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Felt like a fairly middle-of-the-road sitcom, like Modern Family or something. Guys doing Floyd and Animal's voices were pretty good.

I'm in the camp of growing up with the Muppets and think that this is terrible. It's just not funny. Chef Karaoke was the only funny thing they did.

Yeah, the last couple episodes have been dog ****. The 11-minute pilot was funny, but things got so far away from that so quickly. Looking forward to the relaunch.

I think it's improved. lol
