The Muppets Mayhem

THIS IS AWESOME. Lots of jokes referring to older Muppet movies; suitable for kids but with enough adult-ish jokes that kids won't catch. So many times when I literally laughed out loud, plus a few times when I teared up. Great cameos, much like old-school Muppet movies. I subtracted one star because this would only be more perfect if Jim Henson were alive to involved in it... I love that this still gives vibes of his work, unlike that disaster adult Muppets show a few years back. Also, if you know anything about the music industry, that makes it even better. I sat down to watch 1-2 eps and wound up binging 4. If you remember 70s-80s Muppets, you should at least like this, if not love it.

This is the Muppet series we've been waiting for. It's funny, loaded with cameos, has great storytelling and it's the first muppet production since the muppets, that finally has heart again. Each episode builds on itself. For the true muppet fan, there are plenty of Easter eggs. For the first time Muppet fan, the characters grow with each episode and you'll grow to fall in love with each quirky personality. The relationships between the "real life" actors and the muppets are genuine, just like in the muppet show and the muppet movies. I love the fact that this season focuses on just the electric mayhem and not all the muppet "regulars". It gives them a real chance to shine.

Personally, I don't think the Muppets have ever ever ever EVER been wrong about anything. This show just proves my point. I think they're going to elevate Lily Singh to new heights that she hasn't attained yet & bring in fans from all corners of the globe. Lily, to me, was an internet celebrity, and now, she's much much more; she manages the Mayhem.

I was skeptical about this show when I heard that the Mayhem were going to star, but then I realized they haven't been the center of any show or movie yet.

Imagine. You're floating on a river in the summery, relaxation mode you get yourself into this time of the year, when you come to an eddy that stops you in your tracks & allows you to explore what's around you for a moment in time, if your choosing. That's what this show is, does & will continue to do. A bright, refreshing view of something we've never seen before.

The Mayhem is as brilliant as they always were but with the spotlight on, for the first time, fans of the muppets & fans of entertainment in general can view their magnificence in all its glory.

All hail the Electric Mayhem!

Some recent Muppets shows felt like they had no heart and were just churned out with not much thought. Muppets Mayhem however is the total opposite. It feels like the spirit and heart of the Muppets is finally back. Loved following Electric Mayhem and loved how each of the characters had their own personality and story going on in the background. It's so funny and well written, with a great cast. Really loved Lily Singh and Anders Holm. Such a great storyline, and I feel like whoever wrote it was staying true to the Muppets and not trying to change them in order to pander to the Tik Tok generation, like Muppets Now did. Please make a season 2 of Muppets Mayhem!!!

==-SPOILER FREE REVIEW-==

Ever since it first got announced, and especially when the full trailer got released in April, I have been absolutely ecstatic with anticipation for The Muppets Mayhem.

The last few hours I've dedicated my time to binging the series, and it does not disappoint.

Whether this is the first Muppets show you've ever watched or if you've been watching since The Muppet Show in 1976, you're bound to get a kick out of this series.

It's light-hearted, funny, and with all the issues in the world right now The Muppets Mayhem provides a great break from everything.

And if you're an older fan, you'll definitely get a kick out of all the references to previous movies and series! From visual references to the classic Muppet Movie during the first performance of 'Can You Picture That?' to more subtle references, there's definitely something familiar to spot in each episode.

TLDR; it's a fun series that you can start watching and stop at any time without worrying about losing the plot (not all shows and movies need to have a heavy, complex plot you know!) which makes it a very easy watch. Whether you're a new or old Muppets fan, I 10/10 would recommend.
