With the Muppets (or some weird puppets played by the Muppeteers) now doing improv, do you think this is sort of an attempt to revive improv all together? Because you have to admit, improv seems to have been dead for quite sometime what with sketch shows dominating the airwaves and stages right now.

What do you think?

Well then like I said, I think this may be some attempt at reviving improv all together, because let's face it: improv's been dead ever since Kathy took a break from it.
