Admit it, guys… In the small, dark place that you don’t talk about, you want your Muppets. Lucky for you, ABC is going to provide the answer to your craving this Fall with the “The Muppets.”
Make no mistake, this isn’t exactly your parent’s “Muppet Show” which ran from 1975-1981 and spawned a bevy of successful films in the 70’s and 80’s. No, this is more in line with the 2011 and 2014 movie revivals that re-imagined Jim Henson’s brain children for the 21st Century. But, old school fans, don’t you despair either, because all the old favorites are here, along with some of the same problems, intrigue and messy interpersonal relationships. Expect as much drama as a four foot tall velvet frog can manage (in fact, it appears that America’s most beloved celebrity couple has been broken up by… Topher Grace?)
