Børk! Børk! Børk!

Well this news is way overdue - TV Line is reporting that ABC is finally getting around to rebooting The Muppet Show! I've been calling that one no-brainer for years upon years, I really am shocked it took them this long. Maybe they wanted to get their movie money first? Anyway one of the show-runners from (groan) The Big Bang Theory is developing it, but as much as I hate that show he wasn't pulled out of thin air; he's worked on a couple of previous Muppet projects. You can read the story specifics at that link - it's all very meta, but the original Muppet Show was meta before meta was meta, so meta's fine.

Does that mean that maybe, just maybe they'll bring back Der Swedish Chef's Der Swedish Stars back to the cereal aisle? Because not that I wasn't all for The Muppets TV show but I'll really be in its corner if they bring that tasty bit of kid nostalgia back into my life.

Sure you could be all "Why don't you eat a bowl of cinnamon toast crunch, they are practically the same thing" but THEY ARE NOT THE SAME THING so don't even try.

Ahem. Yeah muppets on my TV yeah!
