Review: being a Muppet

Who told us Muppet Christmas was the same as Human Christmas, when we don't even call it Human Christmas but just Christmas? It's not the togetherness in their muppetness that irks me, it's that you have to be born into being a muppet. They have privilege in their existence.

There is definite pride in being a muppet, in knowing that you have credibly over regular puppets, so much so that you are considered different and are considered an art form. There is definite despair in being a muppet, in that we expect too much from you. As the example for other puppets, how high are your goals set? To be blazing that path for all others in your genre to rip off or do slightly different?

You had a hey day, sold it out to Hollywood, and are using the internet and nostalgia as a comeback. If that's the format you've done a quality job in laying low for some time now. But what about the puppet industry in your wake? What was there? Allegra's Window? Goodness nows anything Christian was nowhere near your standards. In establishing yourselves as being a special entity, we can see- you are not special. You are every other franchise of pop culture. But you did it as puppets, and that's the burden you have to live with.

Which isn't a burden at all. There is love amongst you. The love that exists in just seeing a puppet. You've been getting by on your Sesame Street good will for so long, that Sesame Street is its own separate thing, quite bigger than you. Which you're fine with and that's good. You're happy for them. I just want you to restore a prominence that was once immeasurable.
