Disney Plus: The Muppets Mayhem will not be renewed for season 2

The Muppets can’t seem to find their footing, as news has spread that The Muppets Mayhem has been canceled after one season. The Disney Plus show, which received an Average Tomatometer score of 86% and an Audience Score of 95% on Rotten Tomatoes, can be added to this year’s ever-growing list of TV show cancelations from several streaming platforms.

The show, which consisted of 10 episodes, starring Tahj Mowry, Anders Holm, and Lilly Singh, told the story of how The Electric Mayhem Band were finally going “to record their first-ever studio album.” But even with the high scores, including an 8 out of 10-star rating on IMDb, it wasn’t enough to keep the show going.

This is heartbreaking for die-hard fans of The Muppets. There have been several attempts to bring the charming, funny and memorable world of The Muppets to modern day audiences who aren’t familiar with the origins of such recognizable characters as Kermit the Frog, Gonzo, Miss Piggy, Fozzi Bear, Scooter and Animal.

The Muppets Mayhem: What is the missing ingredient to a successful

Although we did enjoy Muppets Haunted Mansion, something is obviously missing. It seems nothing can capture the magic much like the Muppet films The Muppets Take Manhattan, The Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppet Treasure Island, that remain beloved and practical cult classics, even today.

What is the missing ingredient to a successful new Muppets franchise? Does it come down to the celebrity guest stars?

Is it the script? What direction will The Muppets take next?

Will we see them in another television show or film? Until we find the answers to those questions, you can watch The Muppets Mayhem season 1 on Disney Plus.

Did you watch The Muppets Mayhem? How do you feel about the cancelation?
