The Muppets have had a hard time finding creative footing since Jim Henson died in the 1990s. Their output is generally hit and miss, and sometimes veers too far in trying to be trendy and "relevant." This new series is-- judging by the first episode-- harmless and pleasant, but not exactly mindblowing. The celebrity guests are rather uneven when it comes to improv skill, and the skits themselves are just okay. I'll watch more episodes before I write it off though.
