ABC officially cancels "The Muppets"

[LittleJerry92]

I was about to say, actually.

 

[Froggy Fool]

Ew, MTI.

 

[Oscarfan]

I don't think it's a hot take that MCC is better than MTI.

 

[Old Thunder]

Shall we settle this completely? Let's poll the forum and find out what the best thing the Muppets have ever done is.

 

[LittleJerry92]

They're both equally good Brian Henson films (though I would say I personally prefer MTI over MCC; the latter not really using the muppets all that much).

I'm surprised I haven't seen this before, but even Marty Krofft was critical of THE MUPPETS (2015):

Off-topic, but they've been talking about rebooting Pufnstuf as a movie for nearly twenty years - I doubt it'll ever happen.

We're still talking about it? It's been a couple of years after this show got cancelled.

 

[D'Snowth]

Hey. Some people around here still keep begging for Steve Whitmire to come back, or for Kevin Clash to come back, or for Jerry Nelson to stop being dead, or for Caroll Spinney to stop getting old.

Some people just can't let go.

 

[LittleJerry92]

I mean hey.

I really wish Jim Henson would stop being not alive so I could hear him as Kermit again.

Matt is getting better.
