While it had some funny moments, it just wasn't . . . fun. The muppets normally make me smile, this didn't.
Make sense?

Not really. It was a great first episode. I thought it was smart and funny. You can definitely tell the show is geared towards 30 & 40 year olds that grew up with the Muppets. Maybe it's nostalgia or whatever but I loved it.

I thought it was fun. It had Fozzie getting clobbered by a monster and Animal playing and then falling into a gigantic drum. It still has a lot of the zaniness of the old show. Mowgli liked those parts.

It always was. The first episode of the Muppet Show was titled Sex and Violence. It became kiddy-fied after Henson left.

In this half-hour variety special, the Muppets parody the proliferation of sex and violence on television.
Nigel, Sam the Eagle, and hippie guitarist Floyd prepare for a Pageant based on the Seven Deadly Sins, with Muppets representing the Sins -- Envy, Anger, Gluttony, Vanity, Lust, Avarice and Sloth.
