It's time to play the music. It's time to light the lights. It's time to meet the Muppets on a brand-new Franchise Detours mega-series. For the next eight episodes, we'll be covering every single theatrically released Muppet film, journeying through spanning 35 years of Muppets on the big screen. First up is the story of "approximately" how the Muppets came together.
On this episode, Stephen Fodor of Too Much Scrolling joins the show to talk in-depth about 1979's The Muppet Movie. We'll discuss how the movie works as an adaptation of The Muppet Show, break down Paul Williams' and Kenneth Ascher's Oscar-nominated music, and answer once and for all whether the film indeed has "socially redeeming value."
