The Muppets get real, 15 September 2002
7/10
Author: sparker-6 from San Francisco, CA



A biting and direct parody of two gay muppets, clear enough stereotypes for anyone choosing to acknowledge it, that plays it for all its worth. Although it has a very old-fashioned gays-are-never-happy kind of ending it still cleverly plays on the stereotypes.

Great musical score by Spencer Day.
