Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, The Great Gonzo and friends return to network television for the first time since "Muppets Tonight" left the schedule in the 1990s. Shot in a contemporary, mock-documentary style, the series targets an adult audience, following the iconic characters and exploring their personal and work lives as they experience loves found and lost, achieve success and suffer disappointment, and pursue their desires. Co-creators Bill Prady and Bob Kushell also serve as executive producers. Read More Read Less

Critics Consensus

The Muppets brings new energy to a beloved franchise -- and although longtime fans may be taken aback by the show's adult mockumentary approach, the classic characters retain their essential spirit.

Eric Deggans NPR "The Muppets" brings the classic characters into modern culture in a way that feels fresh, distinctive, even a little dangerous. Nov 26, 2019 Full Review Michael Hogan Daily Telegraph (UK) Sadly The Muppets was neither sensational, inspirational nor celebrational. Rated: 2/5 Oct 20, 2015 Full Review Michael Schulman New Yorker With the exception of Gonzo, the Muppets should not work blue. Oct 6, 2015 Full Review Noah Berlatsky The Dissolve The Muppets, for its part, has more mainstream goals. It wants to be adult, but in a gentle, fun way that doesn't involve putting you off your food and making you despair of humanity. Jul 5, 2018 Full Review Jef Rouner Houston Press The thing I love the most about the show, though, is the way it tackles the concept of adult humor in a family-friendly setting. May 9, 2017 Full Review Tim Surette TV.com Anything said by a Muppet is instantly funnier than the same thing said by a flesh-and-blood human, making the Muppets slightly funny. It's a good thing that The Muppets happens to be charming then, turning it into a crowd pleaser. Sep 24, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews
