The more mature version of "The Muppets" reboot invites both adults and kids into a world unlike it's ever seen before. This version should be the finished product that comes about from Paul Lee's announcement of a more adult Muppets show.

In a New York Times article, Lee described the mature Muppets version as:

"This is not your grandmother's Muppets" - suggested a misunderstanding of what makes the Muppets special. "They were never your grandmother's - nor your parents', nor your kids'. They belonged to all of us, always. "The Muppet Show" from the 1970s was kid-friendly but also a grown-up showbiz sendup, slapstick and sophisticated, anarchic and droll."

Not everybody had the same opinion on "The Muppets" reboot.

Slate.com reported Rebecca Traister dissed the concept of the new "Muppets" show the previous week by pitching the following headline to the viewers:

"The Muppets should not be having sex, people."

"Please stop talking, writing, and otherwise promoting the upcoming Muppets television reboot by alluding to them actually f***"

For the sake of readers' awareness, TV Guide states reasons why "The Muppets" is a must-see.

For starters, bad jokes may be around to entertain,but they stay long enough for those who find humor in them. Viewers get the kick out of jokes nowadays that may not usually seem funny at all. As a result, many of them tune in to "The Muppets" for that unorthodox, but relaxing simple entertainment just for fun.

Everybody wants to feel good like a child again. Watching "The Muppets" takes the viewers to the time everything seemed so simple. That time was the unforgettable childhood every individual remembers one way or another when they're older.

Every fan cheers up seeing their favorite celebrities act like kids. People take joy in seeing childhood memories come to life. And, there's more to seeing that joy when someone a person admires radiate with happy energy.

"The Muppets" reboot is the fun-family filled show every kid and adult would take the pleasure in seeing, for entertainment and good family bonding moments. Nobody needs to see Miss Piggy and Kermit the Frog stay married forever to like what they're seeing on TV.
