Members NothinButAttitude Posted April 3, 2015 Members Share Posted April 3, 2015 Jesus! Can't people come up with new, original ideas anymore. I hate when these networks do reboots only to cancel them just as quickly b/c the ready made audience they want isn't there immediately. Case in point? Charlie's Angels.

Members I Am A Swede Posted April 3, 2015 Members Share Posted April 3, 2015 Didn't this already happen a number of years ago, when the muppets ran a tv-station? So will this be a reboot of a reboot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted April 3, 2015 Members Share Posted April 3, 2015 You don't know how much I hate that Disney has ownership of the Muppet franchise.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted April 3, 2015 Members Share Posted April 3, 2015 I see this as something different bc the Muppets are already a franchise with multiple shows, movies, and other projects. Disney's involvement, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted April 3, 2015 Members Share Posted April 3, 2015 Without Jim Henson the Muppets have never been the same. The last Muppet Show reboot failed; I don't see why things would have changed. If you haven't read the book about the founding of CTW, try to do so. It's a depressing book, but it has details about just how hard Jim Henson's family had to fight Disney. http://www.amazon.com/Street-Gang-Complete-History-Sesame/dp/0143116630 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
