You should never believe everything you read, but I choose to believe the report from London's Telegraph that if the upcoming Muppet reunion movie is a success, it could bring the Muppets back to television.
Not sure why that's such a good idea? Enjoy this clip of the fabulous Rita Moreno singing "Fever" while Animal — he's the drummer, and he has the best eyebrows in the history of technically inanimate objects — expresses his passion for the material.

If true, this is great news. I think we can manage to lose a few CSI's and Law and Orders to make room for Beeker, Animal, and Fozzy. Pigs in Space here we come.
Muppets redux?
Yay! I agree with monkeywhere... there's definitely room for a new Muppet Show!
Piiiiiiggssss iiiiinnnnnn Spaaaaaaaace!
The Muppets are always welcome on my TV.
I hope you are familiar with Rita Moreno. Before Writers' Strike, she was the matron (although hardly matronly) of the rum family on "Cane." Anyway, this is funny.
