UPDATE! In case you haven’t heard, ABC is making some major changes to the new “Muppets” program. Season 2 will have a complete overhaul since the first attempt with an adult-themed “Muppets” did not receive the ratings hoped. ABC has replaced executive producer Bob Kushell, the man who was behind the idea of taking “The Muppets” in a more adult direction. The new executive producer is Kristen Stewart. The change indicates it will reduce blatant adult references. It is too soon to say if it will be completely family-friendly though. It is also difficult to know for sure what’s behind the network’s decision, although 1MM did warn parents, had the media writing about it, and had parents questioning the network.

I love the Muppets so much but I’m really not digging the crude adult humour. Bring back the songs and skits and ditch the stupid shaking camera interviews.
