"Muppets Now" Reviews!

While Muppet Now premiered today, many critics got an early sneak peek. 



Here's what they had to say. 

Collider hails Muppets Now as a "Dazzling, Slyly Subversive Return to Greatness"

The Hollywood Reporter says the show is "Full of potential, despite a repetitious streak that wastes much of the ensemble"


Entertainment Weekly gave it a B+

TV Insider's Matt Roush says the show "Trades on Classic Humor"

The AV Club says "Disney actually made a good Muppet show—yaaaaaaaay!"

Variety says the show is "smart enough update of the franchise that it should have no trouble satisfying longtime fans while converting new ones"

NBC10 Boston calls it "Pure Muppets Magic Served Up Variety Show Style For Streaming Audiences"

Rolling Stone says "While it’s a substantial improvement on the characters’ last TV series, it ultimately misses the point of playing the music and lighting the lights"

NBC6 Miami raves Muppets Now "Is Pure Muppets Magic Served Up Variety Show Style For Streaming Audience"


Vulture says it "Brings the Golden Age of Muppetry Into the YouTube Era."
The Deseret New says "it’s the 2020 comedy we’ve been waiting for. It’s silly, it’s low stakes. But it’s entertaining and gives us a break from the darkness of our modern world — a happy escape amid a pandemic and a stressful world."


Muppets Now is streaming, well ...now on Disney+!
