This is what we call a Muppets comeback

The long wait for Muppets fans is over: ABC is bringing back the beloved puppets in a prime-time TV series this fall for the first time in nearly 20 years. News of the new show, called "The Muppets", dropped this week as TV networks begin calling producers, stars and studio executives in advance of next week's "upfronts" — the annual ritual where broadcasters roll out their fall schedules for advertisers to score advance sales. "The Muppets", which features the Disney-owned puppets from "The Muppet Show" and "Muppets Tonight" TV series, along with the movie franchises, was considered a shoo-in for pickup at Disney-owned ABC. The series will be filmed like a "mockumentary" — similar to "The Office" or "Modern Family" — showcasing the puppets' personal and romantic lives in a little more adult setting. This will obviously mean it's going to suck. Only Chris Lilley can pull the mockumentary off, my favourite one of his being Jonah from Tonga.
