The only place I can say (regarding a new show) where JHC failed was that they had TONS of momentum built up for the renewed popularity of the Muppets during MuppetFest and thereafter, and Kermit got a star on the Walk of Fame...but, they're waiting too long, and there will be a lull in the general populace, where there was tons of Muppet-fever (ah!) to capitalize on and now we're going into the down-slope (for the general public, not us freaky Mupheads).

If 2001 or 2002 had held a new Muppet series, they would have been better off...but, they're waiting too long if they wait until 2004, unless they have another MuppetFest which they advertise better or more specials etc.

What do you think?

Otherwise, right now all they're riding on are these fabulous action figures!!

Well that shut me up. lol

I do agree that if they wait too long it will be too late. The only way to have a really successful show in 2004 is to promote the **** out of it! And not on shows like Hollywood Suares. I'm talking Tonight Show, Conan, David Letterman type stuff.

Or The Simpsons...

When the fall heavy hitters fail, they have to put in their second-string back up players or "mid-season replacements." They're usually untested formulas, maybe slightly off the main stream concept or what's currently popular on TV. They're almost always a little more risky. But sometimes the higher the risk, the greater the return if they end up catching on.

I'm just sad when really goofy concept stuff finally makes it to the air, but still never gets a chance. I think "Andy Ricther Controls The Universe" is hilarious and it's quite different from the usualy sitcom. Sadly, it only seems to come on intermittently. I don't even know if and when more episodes are going to air.
