Purely Joyful Movie!

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

I was expecting a family friendly funny show and this not only isn't family friendly but it isn't even funny. They used the style that "The Office" used were they talk to a camera for a few seconds which I find to be horrible cinematography and story telling. The adult relationships between the characters makes it more like a bad soap opera than something I would want to watch.I did however like seeing some of the new generation of guests on the show. I Elizabeth Banks, Reese Witherspoon, Josh Groban,Imagine Dragons, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Kristin Chenoweth. The only problem is stars old and new can't be the only reason to watch this show. The Muppet Show of old never relied solely on the guests they brought on. I got to the tenth episode and just couldn't keep watching anymore since I felt like I was wasting my life doing so.

This is a show that was anticipated for Fall 2015. I watched the premiere on TV. This is what happened: The first episode was nice, but the script wasn't that great because it focused on Mrs. Piggy not wanting Elizabeth Banks on the show and Kermit doesn't know what to do. The jokes were good, but the story wasn't engaging. I give that one a 6/10.The humor of the show is really funny, (especially in bear left then bear write) the characters are as well, but the guest stars in the show are all plot devices usually and the stories aren't masterpieces and need work.Mrs. Piggy was bossy in the first episode, but fine in the others, Kermit is just hilarious, and the other ones are likable as well.The camera angles, I've do got to admit, shaky at times, but it doesn't apply all the time. The puppet handling is great as well.] So overall, the Muppets is a good show to spend time on Tuesday night watching. The stories may not have great writing, but the humor and characters are funny. This may not be exactly Jim Henson's Muppets, but its still worth a watch.

I always did love "The Muppets" it was an excellent creation from Jim Henson I grew up in the late 1970's and as a kid fell in love with the original "Muppet Show" they are always fun, caring, and just downright cute to love! With this ABC series update called "The Muppets" these puppets each week are put in their own mockumentary style with guest stars appearing each week from actors, actresses, and funny people and most of the time they are guest on Miss Piggy's late night talk show! The man himself the adorable Kermit the Frog is present each week with his favorite friends of Fozzie the bear, Animal, Dr. teeth, and many others and the jokes and humor is just excellent yet I guess for 2015 it might push the envelope a little bit as crude and dirty, but times have changed! Still "The Muppets" are fun and so cute I'm green with envy they can be loved by everyone thank god they have returned to the small screen weekly!

I think there are two Muppet groups forming here, those that hate it and those that love it.For those that Love: I would say those that love it enjoy the tongue-in-cheek adult humor. It can be more of an intellectual or clever kind of subtle joke that can take a while to sink in, or it can be something instant like "OMG, are they really alluding to THAT!" In short, if you liked the style of the Office (American version), then you'll probably like the Muppets.For those that Hate: I would say those that hate are expecting this to be a show that will be entertaining to children, it won't. That they are expecting the Muppets to be the same from the show when they were a kid, they are, but they aren't. It's like seeing the Muppet's outside of the Muppet show living their life.Overall, it carries a similar format to the classic show. Where the show is set mainly at a show, in this case Miss Piggy's talk show, and the whole Muppet crew works it. There is always a guest, even when Piggy doesn't have them on her show. The characters in the original show I would characterize as lovable, but predictable and one-dimensional, you always knew what they were going to be and behave. On the new show, the characters get fleshed out with our modern times and issues, yet still carry the lovable factor and are both predictable and unpredictable. It makes it interesting to grow up watching them and now to see them again in a different framework. I think the team behind the new show has done an awesome job with keeping it real with the Muppet tradition and heritage, but at the same time has created something wonderful and new for the adults that grew up with the Muppets.My hat is off to you ABC!
