Oh I love edgy humor. This just didn't grab me. ::shrugs::

You can make it edgy, Snowthers, just not trashy. There is a fine line and it's hard not to cross, and I don't like cheap laughs. **shrugs**

Yeah, that's basically what I was thinking, Mrs P.

Of course, don't want to rain on anyone's parade. If you like it's that's fine. It's just a TV show.

(Wow, I am surprised by everyone's positive reaction, but anyways, I love raunchy humor, so I loved this)

WHEW. This was tooo awesome. I absolutelly loved it. The Theme Song. The translation sketch (HILLARIOUS I seriously cried), the George Micheal one was pretty hillarious as well, Poop Vs. The Angry Tourists? Wow. I also loved the fake boobs opera, anything about boobs is funny too me... ((sigh)) I seriously wish this was longer, sometimes they were trying to be funny (for example: the game show sketch) but besides that, I absolutely LOVED it. I seriously would love to see more on television, but I am soooo excited about the web-series. (SQUEELS for "Puppet Up!")

I'm just glad they didn't "f*ck it up." (sigh) :zany:

Mmm hmm!! For the record, though, I haven't seen this yet. Technical difficulties, remember? **sobs** I was talking about humour in general. :wink:

I'm with beaker. Someone put this on YouTube or something!! I really want to see it. I was SO PUMPED. New JHC stuff doesn't come around often enough.
This is the Muppet fan community, noone likes to share programs(historically speaking) unless ya have something to trade or have money:frown:

They can get as edgy as they want, Disney owns the Muppets now.

Some of it seemed somewhat painful... like a trainwreck in a way. I mean, there were a few funny parts here and there, but it was always right before the commercial that it seemed somewhat akward. The host was bad... not a fan of that guy... he looks like a gay Benjamin Linus.
thats cause he is he's a clone dun dun dun!:concern:

And this is a rarity for me to be able to tell because my mom usually has to point something like that out to me (that's how I found out about Dick Sargent, Paul Lynde, Nathan Lane, Ellen DeGeneres, Charles Nelson Reilly, Lily Tomlin and several others... dang I'm so naive). Besides Patrick, the only other time I've been able to tell someone was gay was the photo shop guy who fell for George in an episode of Seinfeld.

hah I never saw that episode. I do tend to wonder about Brian Henson but I don't think he is not that it matters either way though.
