    Muppets Show is for families.

    Our whole family would be watching, my parents commenting on how good the guest stars were doing, whilst my sister and I sat too close to our 20 inch luxury color TV.
    My Dad loved Raquel...I used to sit up and watch midnight horror shows with him, and when Vincent Price guest starred, it was the best episode ever...I even got a Muppets book for my 12th birthday, it had all the best season one drawn with the script. I still have it, 1984 yellow hand drawn Muppet book.

    The Muppet show was hilarious. I remember one show where Roger Moore was a guest host and was being attacked by Muppet's dressed as spies; I couldn't stop laughing, there were Muppets dressed in black flying all over the place. I tried to find a clip, but couldn't.

    If you complain about the Muppet show you shouldn't be interacting with the adult world.

    Although I'm only 13 even as a young toddler I always preferred The Muppets over sesame street, due to spending a good chunk of my life in an environment where I was forced to grow up faster than I really should have I grew out of shows like sesame Street rather quickly, and shows like this one grabbed my attention, it's always funny to see adult jokes in kids shows.

    The level of artistry... Song, dance, musicianship, singing, puppetry, humor, social commentary.. Nothing approaches this. Today's mainstream media would not allow this level of complexity. Lament.

    The thing about the Muppets is and I know I'm not the first or last person who's probably already commented this but it was never a children show I don't remember if it had a Primetime slot but it was never really a children's show. But you can't fault it for being interpreted as one it was clearly made as a pg-rated piece of media that was geared towards as general an audience as possible you could watch it at any age it's just one of those multi-faceted demographic pieces that's too wholesome to not be made with children in mind but also so much of its humor and style drawers from a classic collection of influences that grown-ups will appreciate for multiple reasons and yes a little bit of edgier jokes here and there helps as well

    Rita Moreno, aside from being a comedic genius - I love when she goes off in Spanish and then ends with “cool it!” - did that whole number to just a click track. The actual drums and bass you hear were added later. She had to just count the clicks in her head and it took dozens of takes. Of course, her own telling of this story is hilarious.

    This 22:32 min video just vindicates that it's okay to love The Muppets!!!!!!! As a kid I was picked on for loving The Muppets. The ignorant people didn't realize that Jim Henson hated being pigeonholed as a kids entertainer!!!!!! Anybody who has read/owns a book on Jim Henson or has researched his work knows that about him. He expand his horizons when he took on Sesame Street and Fraggle Rock as projects. Still Sesame Street back in the days when Jim Henson was alive appealed to the parents so that they could watch it with their kids. Fraggle Rock had messages that could reach to both kids and adults. The Muppet Show was aimed towards an adult audience but it appealed to the kids as well. The adult humor went over the kids head. It sure did for me until I saw them as an adult when I first got Season 1 on DVD when it first came out when it was released in 2005 when I was 17 years old. Just like Walt Disney with animation. Jim Henson pushed the boundaries with what we thought about puppets. Their work appealed to both kids and adults and they sent messages. Nowadays most people aren't creative anymore which is a shame. UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Jim also wanted to make content that could appeal to the inner child in every adult. As well as use the medium of puppetry to teach kids things that would benefit them as they transitioned into adulthood.
      Too many people want to treat children as an entirely different species of innocent little creatures that must never learn about certain subject matters lest it alter their entire perceptions of life. Then as they get older those same groups want to bitch and complain that teenagers and tweens don't know anything about the world. Like, they don't know because you kept it from them! You kept them purposely ignorant of the world to preserve their precious childhood innocence and then when childhood was over you just decided that they should have acquired this knowledge from "somewhere" by "means" because "reasons" and when that *didn't* happen you whine! What did you expect?!
