To me, the bit seemed a little flat. Nothing all that special. I expected it to be more of a recreation of the original, but in live action. Putting them in a classroom setting was odd. Needed less clips if the cartoon and mire muppet recreations if it, but based on the rest if the special it seems that's not the vibe they were going for.

Also, it would seem I'm just not that keen on School House Rock in general anymore, outside of a few songs.

The Muppets appearance and Ne-yo moments were great to watch. However, I would have thought that it could have been better to watch the old classics and mentioned maybe the later ones (election and earth) in the special.
