The Muppet Show Ratings & Reviews
Boston Globe
Matt Juul
"The Muppet Show" is zany and wholesome, and above all, brings genuine heart along with the humor, rather than succumbing to cynicism like so much of comedy today.
Black Nerd Comedy
Andre Meadows
I loved it.
NPR
David Bianculli
With a new generation of writers and puppeteers, this new iteration of The Muppet Show is just as delightful as the one that premiered 50 years ago.
Common Sense Media
Ashley Moulton
The long-awaited return of this nostalgic favorite perhaps doesn't live up to the incredible hype, but it's fun nonetheless.
Rachel's Reviews (YouTube)
Rachel Wagner
The best show made for Disney Plus in a while. The Muppets are back!
Decider
Joel Keller
It took 45 years, but seeing The Muppet Show back as if it never left is not only comforting and nostalgic, but it's still really entertaining.
io9.com
Cheryl Eddy
If this really is just a stand-alone special, it'll go down as an entertaining entry on the Muppets' long timeline of TV and movie projects-far more successful than that Office parody that was attempted a decade ago.
San Francisco Chronicle
Tony Bravo
The heart of "The Muppet Show" was always the Muppets themselves and the writers understand that, keeping the focus where it belongs.
Slate
Sam Adams
The Muppet Show is back and better than ever before.
TIME Magazine
Judy Berman
The cultural references are just current enough to feel fresh, with a minimum of internetty pandering.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Lloyd
Pop singer comedienne Sabrina Carpenter is the guest star, a most appropriate choice.
New York Times
James Poniewozik
"The Muppet Show," it turns out, doesn't need to be retooled for a new era, because the Muppets exist outside of time. These are, in fact, your grandparents' Muppets, and your parents'. And yet they're exactly the Muppets you need right now.
Washington Post
Lili Loofbourow
The special is unapologetically nostalgic and gloriously so.
IndieWire
Christian Zilko
The first priority is not to screw anything up. Rogen and company managed to achieve that, providing a nostalgic foundation that should give them as much runway as they want for future experimentation.
The Hollywood Reporter
Daniel Fienberg
This is not The Muppet Show at its best, but it's a return to what the Muppets do best.
What's Alan Watching? (Ghost.io)
Alan Sepinwall
It's Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzie, and the others just trying to put on a show, and mostly succeeding. And it turns out that formula still works like gangbusters when it's these characters involved.
Consequence
Liz Shannon Miller
What this new Muppet Show confirms is that in the hands of fans, Jim Henson's legacy is safe - but specifically these fans, who understand the formula and know just how much to tweak it for today.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
It understands why people still love the original.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
This charming return engagement melds the old with the new with great gonzo (or is that Great Gonzo?) flair.
TV Guide
Jen Chaney
It's as clear as the nose on Gonzo's face after watching this special that it is absolutely time to get things started on a new Muppet Show, immediately.
