I really enjoyed the flashback moments, though personally I'd kill to see how Teeth/Floyd met the other bandmembers.

This one was absolutely incredible! Who would've thought a Dr. Teeth backstory would be able to tug at your heartstrings, really makes you realize how little we knew about these characters before this series. I always pictured Teeth to be around the same age as Floyd, so I was a bit surprised that Floyd is positioned to be significantly older in the flashbacks, nonetheless those sequences were perfectly crafted. Loved some of the easter eggs too, like Floyd's shop being named after Jerry Nelson & Nora eating a box of Cröonchy Stars.

The only small complaint I have is that I don't like the retconning they did with the origins of Teeth's golden tooth. It was established by Jim Henson that it was made out of melted down golden records. There's honestly so little backstory about the band from the Henson era that I wish they would've stuck to that detail. Otherwise though, this was my favorite yet, 9.75/10.
