I grew up watching “The Muppet Show” and each of the movies.  I watched Sesame Street and “The Dark Crystal” and “Labyrinth” and pretty much anything Muppet-made.  It is therefore a natural conclusion to presume that my own children would enjoy at least some level of Muppet exposure.  We even purchased seasons 1 and 2 of the original “Muppet Show” on DVD to watch  together as a family.  I was pleased to discover that the Muppets are creating new content in an online-only format.  I shared these with my parents and with my children.

We’ll start with the least funny:

Gonzo merely whets the appetite.  I miss Jim Henson’s voice when I hear the two hecklers, Waldorf and Stadtler, now.  They don’t sound quite the same without Jim.  Moving onward:

By this point I had my mom, dad and youngest sister laughing out loud.  It gets better though...

Before continuing, I must warn you – my children are stuck in a rut because of the last one, the Ode to Joy (perhaps more accurately, the Meep to Joy).  I have but to start, “Bork...Bork Bork Bork,” like the Swedish Chef in the next one and my children start Meep–ing like Beaker.  You have been warned.  Don’t click unless you are certain you know what you’re getting yourself into.

You had to do it, didn’t you?  I don’t blame you.  I still can’t get enough of this one and neither can my children.  Perhaps I’ll include footage of the meep-ing in the next DVD...
