Pissed Off Moms Call New Muppets Show ‘Perverted’

One Million Moms call new muppets show “perverted”

While many people are looking forward to the return of the Muppets, one group, One Million Moms, is pretty pissed off, calling the new adult-themed muppet show as “perverted” and calling on ABC to cancel the series.

ABC’s promotional campaign has focused on Kermit and Mis Piggy’s alleged breakup and subsequent rebound relationships, including Miss Piggy’s promiscuity, Fozzie Bear’s relationship with a woman, and even included an ad with a Kermit clad in only a scarf that brags, “Finally, a network TV show with full frontal nudity.”

While it is true that there is a more adult feel to the show, it is probably because ABC is not aiming the series at children, but adults who grew up loving the Muppets and want to relive a pit of their childhood in an updated manner once a week.

And with their petition, which helpfully tells people what time and channel the show will air, the One Million Moms could well be inadvertently bringing publicity to a show ABC has a lot riding on.

You may remember One Million Moms as the group was the one behind the boycott in 2012 of J.C. Penney when that retailer featured same-sex couples in its inserts.
