  What other live action shows have been “tainted” by puppets recently?

  For me nothing recent comes to mind.

  Now older shows like Far Scape? I love that show, muppets and all.

    I don’t know about recent, but Community and My Name is Earl are two examples that come immediately to mind. God I hate those episodes.

      You said “all of the live action shows” and then proceed to cite two that are a decade old, and one that’s complete shit anyhow. Followed by an admission that you “don’t follow live tv”.

      How high are you, exactly? 🤦🏼‍♂️

        I’m not here to make friends, I’m here to discourage puppet episodes of otherwise live action series. They are bad. The people who make them should feel bad. Hell even Stargate SG-1 had a weird puppet episode.

        I’m sorry that I used the phrase “all” and it didn’t actually mean every single show in existence. I should have known that the pedantry of the internet wouldn’t allow the usage of an absolute.

      The “Community” episode was over a decade ago…

        Don’t be silly. Hah! A decade ago! Community didn’t exist as a TV programme in the 1990s!

        I don’t keep up on live TV any more. Too many advertisements.

      How about the Scrubs one with Sesame Street? That was good
