"Orpheus in the Underworld - Overture" by Jacques Offenbach plays throughout) Doug (vo): Everybody knows the Muppets and everybody loves them. But after a few films that didn't do so great, suddenly, the Muppets became really unpopular. Okay, nobody hated them or anything, but they definitely weren't pulling in all the numbers. Once in a while, you see them on a commercial or two, but they weren't really in movies, or shows, or anything like that anymore.

Doug (vo): This is why the reboot movie, called "The Muppets", was such a big deal. Not only were they trying to get people interested again, but they threw as much time and effort into it as possible. We're talking big musical numbers, celebrities, emotional moments, new material mixed with old material, commercials and advertisements everywhere you went. And, thankfully, it paid off. But not just because it was really, really funny and creative, but because it was brilliantly and brutally honest about people's acceptance of the Muppets recently.
