Too bad. As an adult, I really enjoyed the Muppets during the 1970’s. Their entirely nonpolitical humor really was G rated in that it genuinely appealed to the sense of humor of all age groups.The space ship Swinetrek scenes were side splitters, especially for those of us who were raised in the 1950’s on shows like Flash Gordon and Captain Video. The satire, aimed at Dr. Zarkof of Flash Gordon, in the form of Dr. Strange Pork (double satire for Dr. Strangelove) was a scream. All of that was real art from a genuine genius, the late Jim Henson.

Jim and Kermit in College Park. ABC/Disney are perverts, they destroy everything they touch. Even Muppets.

It was family friendly humor. Disney making it “edgy” will only kill it. It would have less of an audience than MSNBC.
