The Muppets: 6 Highlights And 4 Lowlights From The Pilot
2. Lowlight: The Interviews
The Muppets uses the mockumentary style made popular by The Office to the point of even using an identical font for its opening title card. This is a pretty interesting idea to make us feel like we're really seeing behind the scenes of the show, but there's one thing the series needs to abandon: the interviews.
Right away the writers make fun of these, pointing out that they're a totally overused device to make easy jokes. That's true, they are! Later on, though, they go on to just use that device to make easy jokes, not subverting expectations at all. Gonzo mocks the idea of contrasting what's said in the interviews with what's happening in real life as if that's a lame joke to make, but then they just straight up make that same joke with no irony later on.
After 10 years of this format dominating TV, it's simply grown tiring to constantly cut to the characters explaining things to the camera, and it really isn't necessary here. The Muppets should take the Parks and Recreation approach of keeping the documentary style, but dramatically decreasing the talks to the camera.
