Summer Penguin PI was very good. I liked how they put film dirt on Summer's musical number. I liked how You Ought to Be in Pictures was the first episode to take place outside the nursery. I also liked Animal being obsessed with Renior, just like Great Muppet Caper.

Just like I had hoped, we had an episode that took place outside the nursery, one of the new opportunities this reboot has presented us with. And I totally expected an homage to the scene in Ferris Bueller with the babies wandering throughout the museum, including Fozzie staring deeply at "La Grande Jatte". :smile:

Summer Penguin PI: was pretty cute, you got one of the first introductions of her and she's pretty nice as a character. Even though she feels off compared to other Muppet penguins and as a Muppet, she's still an alright character, and this plot about her being a detective was cute!

You Ought to be in Pictures: Someone already talked about this on here, but it was nice seeing a reference to The Great Muppet Caper with Animal being into Renoir. Kermit and Fozzie having the same interest about the TV show was very cute! and the episode also reminds of Super Mario 64 with the Muppet Babies jumping into paintings.
