Plot: The Electric Mayhem Band, the old-fashioned Muppets band, takes on the current music world in their attempt to finally go platinum.
Season 1 of the new muppet’s mayhem series was surprisingly Great.
Pros: I liked seeing the focus shipped to the music group Electric Mayhem band in this series. It showed some old video footage of them in past performances. Lilly Singh did quite well as the band’s manager. I can feel the enjoyment, and the atmosphere of this season and how it treated it like a regular singing band are in real life. Many of the celebrity cameos were a high point.
Cons: I don’t have any bad things to say.
