Yeah, a sick, demented, perverted version of Sesame Street where everyone ***** and kills everyone else.

Sounds like Sesame Street to me.

I like how you described it as "sick, demented, perverted". Honestly so many other comedies are just like this, but this one happens to have puppets. There's more to the story then puppets doing it and killing people.

I have no interest at all in seeing this, it looks like a rip off of Sesame Street.

It's nothing like Sesame Street.

Oh yes, I know, and I love it!

It's just... comparing it to Sesame Street is a little... odd.

Yeah, comparing it to any family entertainment is odd. But if you did, Great Muppet Caper would probably be the closest comparison in terms of story.

You could add a Kermit / Piggy sex scene and you’d really be similar.
