I pulled a YouTube thread at random and just laughed out loud the entire time. Too bad family friendly comedy has disappeared from the TV. I do hope the show makes a return (even if in reruns) so young and old can laugh together.
Muppet Show Episode 2-17 Julie Andrews

My wife recently got the first 2 seasons on DVD for a nostalgic view and they’re great.
I remember as a kid being at my Dad’s parents and all 3 generations of us watching it.

The world could use the simple joy that the Muppets can bring to TV.
Heaven help us if the leftists get to them first.

Back in the late sixties on board ship in rough seas, more than once I observed a seaman standing watch on the bridge replaced by another. When I asked where the first was the answer commonly was “he’s gone looking for Rowlf.” Of course sometimes he was looking for Rowlf in the bucket securely tethered to starboard or port wing.

Look for a show with default gay muppets, a transgender muppet, and “It’s Pat” your androgynous host. Oh and the two old balcony guys are now even more pervy looking.
Episode 1. Beeker comes out of the closet. Not like we didn’t see it coming. Dr Bunson Honeydew tries to cure him and a hoarde of LGBT rights muppets bury him in pizza.

You have seen the muppets, right?
They have been leftists since Jim Henson stuck his hand up the Pig’s butt.

Rowlf was my favorite.
What I find amazing is that since my 2-year-old became olde enough to appreciate the Muppet Show, I have been telling everyone that the time is now for a comeback... and here they come!
So folks... who should they get as stars, if they can get the best picks?
They have to go with multi-talented.
Jennifer Lawrence? Jimmy Kimmel? Jimmy Fallon? Lindsey Sterling? Kaley Cuoco? Mayim Bialik? Ed O’Niell? Sofia Vergara? Eric Stonestreet? Jennifer Lopes? Simon Cowell? Lucy Liu? Laurie Holden? High Laurie? Jason Segal? Neil Patrick Harris? Alyson Hannigan? Jim Cavazeil? Taraji Henson (confuse people)? Bradley Cooper? Sienna Miller? Mila Kunis? Katy Perry? Meg Trainor? Ariana Grande? Idina Menzel? John Legend? Pharrel Williams? Taylor Swift? Elie Goulding?

The original Muppet Show was an absolute riot - one of the all-time funniest shoes ever. I’m sure any modern remake will be total PC crap - I won’t waste time on it.

Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady created Two and a half Men and Big Bang Theory. I figure the new muppets will be swearing up a storm and having sex with other muppets and guest stars....

Before the Muppets were Kukla, Fran, and Ollie. I loved them.
