About

"Beloved puppets try an awkward office-sitcom makeover"

A behind-the-scenes mockumentary following Kermit, Miss Piggy, and the gang as they produce Miss Piggy's late-night talk show. Instead of a stage variety format, it's shot like a workplace sitcom, with talking-head confessionals and office politics, romantic drama, and backstage gossip. The tone starts surprisingly wry and adult, poking at celebrity culture and Kermit-Piggy's messy breakup, before softening into warmer, more traditional Muppet silliness as the season progresses. It's funny in fits and starts, carried by the puppetry craft and cameo-heavy guest spots, but noticeably uneven in identity and confidence.

Watch it for

the novelty of seeing Kermit and Miss Piggy navigate an Office-style workplace mockumentary.

Maybe skip if

you want classic variety-show Muppet warmth rather than cynical workplace-comedy framing.
