The Muppets Mayhem is certainly one of the more fun and compelling creations from The Muppets’ Disney era.
The Muppets Mayhem is a funny, fast-paced show which doesn’t sacrifice story or characters for pop culture references and celebrity cameos. And the fact that it’s family friendly is a bonus.

A sharp yet warm-hearted new series.
It’s perhaps the best post-Henson Muppet show, even though — or exactly because — it features none of the usual headliners but strikes into fresh territory while maintaining the proper mix of satire, slapstick, silliness, subtlety and sentiment. The writing is good; the jokes land with Simone Biles consistency.
The show starts off a little iffy. .... By the 10th and final episode, those early concerns have mostly faded, and you find yourself happy that Disney is able to find a way to put good, new Muppets stories out in the world.
“Muppets Mayhem” puts the spotlight on these one-note secondary characters. It’s like taking a recipe that calls for a teaspoon of spice and instead using two cups of spice — and no other ingredients. The result is unappetizing — a dry, dull and disappointing Muppets series.
There isn’t a trace of spark between Singh and either Holm or Mowry, neither actor has anything to play, and the suggestion that Animal is in love with Nora is one of those human/Muppet pairings that the brand is usually unsure how to advance. The human spine of The Muppets Mayhem is so unengaging that it becomes increasingly hard for the Muppet storyline to maintain interest. This is what happens when you have six characters in a band and three of them are between non-verbal and semi-verbal.
