And if we're being real, I don't think it'd even be worth releasing from a commercial standpoint. The show had such a hollow feeling to it and had much less charm than normal Muppet productions. Though all the MuppeTelevision portions are up on Youtube for anyone who is interested, same with the...

Terrible news, wish him a speedy recovery.

Yeah, I'm not holding out hope for Jim Henson Hour but I feel like there may be a chance to get Muppets Tonight on there. It has a much more modern feel than JHH and there was considerably less music used when compared to TMS.

Yep, make sure to view the DVD version of this one. But after that, feel free to check out (or skim through) the edited Disney+ version for a good laugh.

Disney Plus has 95 million subscribers, certainly a step-up from having to rummage through low-quality DailyMotion videos to find season 4 and 5.

On the bright side, the release of The Muppet Show on Disney Plus felt relatively buzz-less for the past few days. So to have big names like Don Jr and Sean Hannity (whether you like them or not) mention the release in some form should inform a larger audience that the series is available for...

It's also worth noting that Fox News was the first one to try to "cancel" The Muppets. But I guess now they're sticking up for them?

What annoys me the most is seeing people say something like "The muppets have a content advisory?! What's next? Barney or Caillou?". They clearly aren't aware of the type of content featured on The Muppet Show and liken it to some series targeted towards preschoolers. At the same time though...

I thought this one was alright but a bit too mean-spirited for my taste. Kinda sucked seeing Fozzie being belittled by the other comedian and Rowlf having to play for the "Dirty Old Egg Sucking Dog" number. Still a pretty funny episode though, I'd say a 7/10.

This is actually one of 3 episodes that I've never seen prior to the Disney+ release (the other two being the Johnny Cash and Wally Boag ones). And wow this was a phenomenal half-hour. The Muppet Show is at its best when there's an overarching plot that affects the stage-show as a whole and...

I'm fine with his episode being omitted. I'm not for removing someone's work due to unproven allegations or because of a comment they made on Twitter but Chris Langham was found guilty of doing something absolutely sickening. All I can say is that I wish Richard Pryor had been able to make it to...

The Don Knotts episode has always been one of my favorites and I've probably seen it at least 10-15 times. For those unfamiliar with it, the plot features Fozzie running the show and impressing the band (particularly Floyd) after he chooses "Lullaby of Birdland" for them to play. I get that they...

Yeah, it doesn't look very good at all. I'm also not much of a fan of animation/live-action hybrid films. It can work if made correctly but it usually ends up falling flat and looking super awkward.

While I'm glad the series will be unedited, I gotta say that's it's so gross to see a label like that attached to such a wholesome, fun-loving show. Yes, I'm well-aware that there were a handful of episodes that stereotyped (namely the Spike Milligan and James Coburn oens) but the vast majority...

Definitely agree, Toy Story and even Toy Story 2 look very cheaply-made today despite being groundbreaking in their time. Same goes with Ice Age. That's really the problem with CGI, it evolves so rapidly that the films have an expiration date of 10-15 years before they no longer look pristine. I...

What's even worse was when Illumination came out of nowhere and easily outdid Blue Sky from a financial standpoint.

Really sad news about Blue Sky. It never became the juggernaut that Pixar or Dreamworks became but I always rooted for them. Sadly, it seems like only the Ice Age films made them good money and even the 5th Ice Age made considerably less than the others. It will be so strange seeing the upcoming...

I'm guessing all the cuts from season 1 will remain, season 2 and 3 should stay intact though. If they could get them released with no edits for a DVD, than I don't see why they can't have it on streaming. Not too sure about season 4 and 5 though. As I stated earlier, they'll probably do some...

Not sure if this is a record for number of regular performers for a muppet character but it feels worth noting that Statler has now had 4 performers. Richard Hunt (1976-1991) Jerry Nelson (1992-2003) Steve Whitmire (2002-2016) Peter Linz (2017-present) Peter Linz seems to be doing a fine job...

I remember watching Wubbulous World when it aired on a PBS station about 10 years ago. Probably the worst decline in quality a show has had going from season 1 to season 2 that I've ever seen. It went from an engaging and adventurous storybook-esque anthology series to what was essentially an...
