Episode 10 came the closest to looking like a classic episode of The Muppet Show. There was still some connections to the current series’ ongoing plots and characters, but there was also a complete lack of jerkass Kermit while the show’s climax was a big Muppet musical number with the episode’s guest star Mindy Kaling.
But the best moment may have been a rather dramatic emotional one.
If there is one thing about The Muppets I’ve been disappointed with, it’s been the treatment of the Great Gonzo.
This episode gave Gonzo a bit of a spotlight, and it still didn’t seem right to me.
I’ve spent a good deal of time in this space discussing how much Kermit seems off on this new show.
But really, after tonight, I think I’m starting to think that about Scooter to a much deeper degree.
