The Muppets Mayhem Band

Ever since Disney acquired the Muppets (franchise), it seems they haven't really known what to do with them. The 2011 movie The Muppets was excellent, while the sequel was just okay. The 2015 ABC show "the muppets." was terrible, but the one-off Muppets Haunted Mansion was good.

In The Muppets Mayhem, the Muppets (at least some of them) finally return to the small screen in a season reminiscent of the look and feel of the Muppets from the original Jim Henson movies. This show is the best use of the Muppets at least since 2011's The Muppets.

The Muppets Mayhem is surprisingly good- in addition to nearly every episode having a significant cameo, there is great music, lots of humor, and a lot of backstory on the members of the Electric Mayhem. Through the season we see a lot of character growth not just for the Electric Mayhem, but for their human partners helping them record an album.

Unexpectedly, I saw that Adam F. Goldberg co-produced the show- the same Goldberg that gave us the ABC sitcom The Goldbergs. This show seems like a natural next step for Goldberg- the humor in The Muppets Mayhem and the seamless introduction of cameos is reminiscent of the early seasons of the Goldbergs.

This season diving into the backstory of the Electric Mayhem was a lot of fun. I hope that the success of this show means that more Muppet shows are on the way!

This is a near perfect tribute to the Electric Mayhem and the Muppets. After a lot of lackluster attempts to bring the Muppets to the tv and theater, this one knocked it out of the park. There are a lot of throwbacks that any Muppet fan from the better days (aka the originals to the 90s) will love the references, some great jokes and sentimental moments that will have you laughing and/or crying, or both even, and a storyline that just works so well. The actors all did a great job portraying their characters and, even though "Can You Picture That" didn't sound like it did back in the original Muppets movie, it still rocked like usual. I would highly recommend this show to any Muppet fan and any potential Muppet fan. Adam Goldberg and Jeff Yorkes did a fantastic job with this show and I hope we get more of this and/or more shows/movies like this.

Muppets now was great but was way too choppy and forcing an old horse to do new tricks. We wanted the old horse. The muppets are timeless. As seen in this show we're reminded as to why we should just let the people involved in the muppets do their thing and not force outside perspectives on it. I hope the muppets continue down this path as having some of the puppeteers invloved in writing has greatly improved things. I liked muppets now but it seemed more like a youtube video. This feels more like a show and i look forward to all the muppet shows and movies that can be made. Jim hensons vision lives on through his friends.

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!!!
