The Muppet Show (2026)

dir Alex Timbers
A delight! We’re so lucky to have the muppets. We don’t deserve them. That being said, Kermit needs to get his shit together.
What do you mean we’re cutting acts right before they go onstage? Do we need to call Liz Lemon? Because she wouldn’t let this happen. What the hell is the frog’s problem? First he overbooks the performance. Ok. Well. That is kind of his whole job. Anyways…. Then he thinks it’s appropriate to diss his boo on her big day? Everyone knows that it’s Miss Piggy’s world- we are just living in it! I would be absolutely pissed if I bought tickets to see the live Muppets revival and then BOOM! NO PIG?! Kermit and Piggy have been an item for how many years? He’s still flirting left and right, entertaining all sorts of beautiful women when we should be saying the magic words, “I have a girlfriend.”
If he’s not going to appreciate her, someone needs to tell the tad pole to step aside.

Plenty of people would love to take Miss Piggy out and show her a good time. Yes, yes, I have a girlfriend, too, but I’m sure she would understand. I mean, that bone structure…that snout…that hair. Does anyone know if Miss Piggy is hetero?
Ok let’s talk about the rats. Their performance of Blinding Lights killed me. Why? What the hell are they doing? It honestly makes perfect sense that a bunch of New York sewer rats would be fans of The Weeknd but it’s so fucking funny to me. It’s not a new song. It’s not like The Weeknd was the musical guest. The rats just like his music. Dead.
I really hope we get more Muppets. Everybody was absolutely fabulous!Even the humans like Seth Rogan and Maya Rudolph. Just one note- let the pig do her thing. Stop interrupting her. WE WANT TO SEE THE SEXY PIG!
