This is the best news we've heard all week.
Now that we're without Parks & Recreation, The Office and 30 Rock, it's only right that another faux-documentary style and we can't think of a more deserving cast and subject.
Per ABC:
"The Muppets return to primetime with a contemporary, documentary-style show. For the first time ever, a series will explore the Muppets’ personal lives and relationships, both at home and at work, as well as romances, breakups, achievements, disappointments, wants and desires. This is a more adult Muppet show, for "kids" of all ages."
The last time The Muppets graced our tellies was with Muppets Tonight back in the late 90s, but with the success of The Muppets and The Muppets Most Wanted, it's clear that there's an audience out there for Jim Henson's creations. And with a setup that resembles Tina Fey's 30 Rock, we couldn't be more excited.

For now the show is only set to air in the US, but if anything deserves to wind its way onto our TV screens it's Kermit and co.

Are you ok with this more grown up direction The Muppets is taking?
