After the runaway success of The Muppets, Disney quickly greenlit a sequel. While Jason Segal opted to not return, Nicholas Stoller instead co-wrote the next Muppet adventure with director James Bobin. This time, Kermit would take center stage for the first time since 1984 and would introduce the world to Constantine, the world’s most dangerous frog (and the subject of a meme that would take the internet by storm years later). 

First titled The Muppets… Again, the sequel would eventually be titled MUPPETS MOST WANTED and would be an unfortunate box office flop, and the last feature film to star the Muppets.

Joining Nick and Scott to discuss how the oft-forgotten sequel holds up almost ten years later is screenwriter and podcast Sam Gasch (Ideal Remake).
