The winter finale to The Muppets features Fozzie and Piggy feeling lonely during the holidays and it actually works!
Here’s our review.
Yet despite the limited screentime, everything gets wrapped up well enough.
The stuff with Yolanda is a treat.
Despite how scummy her actions are, she comes off as terrible in an adorable way.
I cant stay mad at her.

Its really the section of the show with Piggy that makes it all work.
Unlike everyone else, shes portrayed as a completely awful person.
Through this little plotline, we get some strong closure without outright changing the status quo.
Its another example of bands appearing for the sake of appearing.
Meanwhile, the Sam/Janice stuff just doesnt do it for me.
At the end of the day, its the Muppets and its Christmas.
Those guys know a thing or three about making the holidays work and this is no different.
Hopefully the quality continues in 2016.
