Bear arrives on Disney+ The beloved series has been off the air for the past 15 years. Now all four seasons are finally available for a whole new generation.
New previews are online (but I can't post them). I like how in some clips, the CG characters have Muppet like movement (It looked like Elmo moved two arms at once like a typical rod puppet). Cameos include Oscar (yay!) and Grover.
There are full episodes online somehwere, that's how I've caught the ones I missed. I think the show's getting better with each episode, but they need a bit more cartoon-ish humor in them. Like Daffy's high-dive and when he introduces Bugs to his country club friends (
Bugsy, Agie, Dicky...
Keep in mind, they filmed season 42 and part of season 43 at the same time. While I hope this airs as part of season 42, it could very well not air until season 43.
I think the Gonzo puppet has definitely improved. I'm not saying I really like his new design (REALLY swelled up nose), but they have improved on it. Look at him, Pepe and Fozzie at D23; it looks like Dave really had an issue moving the lower jaw. The new puppet looks a bit easier to manipulate.
On the puppets, I will say that the Gonzo they're using looks a lot more expressive than the one they had at D23. Same big head, yes, but it looks like Gonzo's lower jaw can actually move now.
I hope they include my favorite gag from when the first draft was leaked (When the Muppets serparate, Rowlf is working at a Kinko's run by cats). If Pepe appears, I image he'd be tied up with something else, like getting stuck on a platter.
