Black Sabbath Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2B5d-8H588 This looks great. I love the Muppets and I love how it's geared slightly more on the "adult" side too. Anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussTCB Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I'm on the fence about this. I may just see how it does before I invest any time in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I enjoyed the first episode. I didn't love it, but certainly enjoyed it enough to keep watching. It got a few lol's out of me, which is more than most sitcoms can say. My biggest gripe is how much of it was lifted from the YouTube preview. It's not even like it was the same footage; they reshot some of that with the same dialogue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted September 24, 2015 Author Share Posted September 24, 2015 That was apparently just a pilot type thing to try to pitch the show, so no surprise if they re-shot some of it. I'll hopefully be checking it out this weekend though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val22 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Dvr 'd it for my granddaughter and we watched it together. I honestly didn't like it. Never liked Miss Piggy and she's just hateful in this version. I loved the show from the 80's and it's nothing like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Sabbath Posted October 1, 2015 Author Share Posted October 1, 2015 Finally got around to watching the first episode. I really enjoyed it. Pretty much what I expected and wanted. I grew up with the Muppets and even watched the Muppet Babies, and I like the new "adult" spin on them with this show.Its very self aware, and honestly, I think it is original. For a group that used to be aimed towards mainly kids, this is definitely a different take.I loved the reboot movie a lot and liked the second one a good bit, so this show is kind of like the icing on the cake, especially with the adult-aimed spin. And honestly, to those that are skeptical, I'd give it a few episodes because maybe it'll just take a few to find its... bearings (wocka wocka).

bacardimayne Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 It's like people are going into this expecting Sesame Street. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted October 1, 2015 Author Share Posted October 1, 2015 I think episode two was even better."Jay Leno's candy dish... If this candy dish could talk."'Then you would have a talking candy dish and maybe that would have been impressive, okay.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Got around to watching the second episode last night - I agree it was a lot better. My favorite bit was when Miss Piggy was getting the hot stone massage, and the Swedish Chef walked by and said "It smells like someone's cooking bacon" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBrownstone531 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I watched it last night. I'm by no means a prude and I get that they're trying to be more "adult", but there's just something not right about seeing the Muppets going nuts at a bar and showing up for work the next day with a hangover.

It's different for sure, but I think it's great Really enjoying this show honestly. It's not amazing, but it's thoroughly enjoyable. Definitely some nice subtle jokes every now and then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I'm iffy about a Muppet version of The Larry Sanders Show, but Shandling didn't seem to mind. He's talking about the past couple of movies (they had to make the movies family friendly). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
