The Muppets.: Pig Girls Don't Cry (2015)
How the mighty have fallen
The Muppet always worked well as a show about a bunch of friends making a show. This has moved away so far from the atmosphere that made the Muppet that it's hardly recognizable as such.
Muppets are creative artists that sing and dance. They do not produce a talkshow and they certainly do not star in a mockumentary. It is just not a muppet thing.
Writing is poor, most of the jokes are so not funny that all they lack is a pathetic drum riff to punctuate them. Add to that rather poor lighting and a perpetually moving camera that induces motion sickness and you have a show that doesn't even manage to induce the slightest smile.
I urge anyone to watch at least one episode. Switch it off after 10 minutes and start looking for an old episode of the real Muppet.
