Honestly, this show was a bit before my time. I mean, I was alive, but too young to watch it, when it was first on. I've seen some of it in reruns, and while I don't think it was always great, it was great often enough. And I love it. I really should watch the whole series sometime. It's absolutely a classic, and the Muppets are the coolest, the funniest, the craziest.... whatever they are, Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Gonzo the Great (my favorite!), Rowlf, Swedish Chef, Sam the American Eagle, all the members of the Electric Mayhem, Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and Beaker, Scooter, Statler and Waldorf, Rizzo the Rat, and tons of others... They're all great.

What else can be said? Oh... yeah... I suppose I should mention it was a variety show, hosted by Kermit, with comedy sketches and musical performances and great guest stars, where we also get to see what's going on behind the scenes as the Muppets are putting on the show... It also spawned plenty of movies, as well as reboots of a sort, and some web series on Disney+, and whatnot. I should say a lot more, but I guess I don't know what to say.
