As I recall, it was a total disaster. Kermit had ditched Ms. Piggy for a younger more vapid clingy version, Ms. Piggy came across as a nasty, jealous bitch rather than what she originally was, and all the characters seemed to be going for the gothy, emoji, marvin-the-paranoid-android I'm so depressed vibe. I remember watching an episode and a half, hoping it would get better, and it just got even more cringy.
