This is the “pilot pitch” for the upcoming ABC prime-time revival of THE MUPPET SHOW. It represents probably the best use anyone has made of these characters since at least MUPPET TREASURE ISLAND (and I liked the first of the two recent movies, so don’t start any shit.)

I love The Muppets like few other things, and this feels like it could be something really spectacular. The movies have always been fine – at least three of them are great – but these characters belong on TV in this exact type of farce. So excited.
