This episode was really good! Sweetums sounded great I thought. And Ivan was pretty cool too. The other guy wasn't that great but it was a funny segment with the penguins. I'm used to the new Statler voice but the new Waldorf is still taking me a while to get used to.

I like the last part after it was over when they were doing funny stupid stuff. Like bloobers. I couldn't stop laughing.

Hey, having no movie clips means more time for Muppety goodness!
I've gotten used to the recast. It means the show can be regular, and have a lot of new characters and old favorites. I just wish it was every week.

I agree with Beaker, I think it's beter without the clips. Watching two old men watching trailers and mocking them was getting...old (no pun intended). I like this new references but not trailers style. Hope they keep it like this.

I like it with and without the clips, and the bloopers at the end were funny. I'm glad to see them do that. This time Statler was more correct to me, but Waldorf seemed to lose his rasp in his voice.

I think they have to be doing reviews with clips or I do not see Movies.com keeping them. There is no real point otherwise.

What I would like to see instead as a compromise are stills from the movie appearing between S&W as they comment on the movie. They can even make fun of the stills.

I would appreciate seeing some credits at the end, writers, producers, cast. That would be nice. Cheers to them all.

I could agree with the stills idea.
