Production

Development

Following a performance at the 2016 Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival, Muppet performer and writer Bill Barretta developed a pitch for a series based on Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem. [7] At the same time, Muppet fan Adam F. Goldberg and partner Jeff Yorkes began developing their own project based on the characters; they were interested in a project about the band because he felt their lack of popularity compared to other characters allowed them to "do anything with these guys, because people just know them enough". [7] While Yorkes originally pitched the idea to Goldberg as a feature film, he instead suggested developing it as a series. [8] The three eventually began working together on combining their ideas onto a single series. [9]

On February 7, 2022, ABC Signature and The Muppets Studio announced developing a 10-episode series for Disney+ based on The Muppets. Written by Barretta, Goldberg, and Yorkes, The Muppets Mayhem is the first series developed by Goldberg for ABC following his deal with the studio in 2019. [2] The decision to develop a series based on Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem came from the success of a series of music videos on the Muppets' YouTube channel. [10] The series was greenlit shortly before its announcement, after finalizing deals with the Muppet performers. [1] Goldberg and Barretta also executive-produce alongside Michael Bostick, Kris Eber, and The Muppets Studio executives David Lightbody and Leigh Slaughter, while Yorkes is a co-executive-producer. [1]

On November 21, 2023, it was announced the series would not be picked up for another season. [3]

Writing

Writers for the series include Julie Bean, Hannah Friedman, Crystal Shaw, Hans Rodionoff, Gabrielle Rodriguez, and Danielle Maransky. [11] According to executive producer Kris Eber, the filmmakers approached the series as if it was a 5-hour-long feature film. [11] The series explores the backstory of Electric Mayhem, which has not been depicted in previous projects; the writers worked closely with the Muppet performers to ensure their ideas stayed faithful to the characters. [8]

The series aimed for a more grounded setting than most Muppet productions, lacking elements such as "talking fruit", with Goldberg saying the show would "[tell] a regular story in the real world with Muppets". [7] Goldberg said this was because he wanted to portray the band as being "like real people, real, breathing entities that can be in the real world". [8] The number of Muppet elements and characters present in the series were determined according to how natural they were integrated in the story, such as the appearance of Muppet bunnies, which Barretta described as "something that Animal's always had". While appearances from characters such as Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy were considered, they were discarded early during development in order to keep the series focused on Electric Mayhem. [8] Yorkes said the series' comedy would derive from how the band only do whatever they want while Nora tries to lead them in making their album. [7]

Casting

Along with the series' announcement, it was reported that Lilly Singh would portray Nora, a junior executive struggling with the chaos caused by The Electric Mayhem. [1] Muppet performers Barretta, Dave Goelz, Eric Jacobson, Matt Vogel, David Rudman, and Peter Linz reprised their roles as Electric Mayhem members Dr. Teeth, Zoot, Animal, Floyd Pepper, Janice, and Lips, respectively. [1] On April 5, 2022, it was confirmed that Tahj Mowry joined the cast. [12] On June 9, 2022, Saara Chaudry and Anders Holm joined the cast. [13]

Filming

Production for The Muppets Mayhem began April 25, 2022, and ended August 5, 2022. [14] Craig Kief serves as director of photography. [2] [15] [16] [17] Matt Sohn and Kimmy Gatewood will direct episodes. [17] [18] On July 2, 2022, it was reported that an accident took place in which a crew truck crashed into a tree on the edge of a cliff near the Griffith Observatory. [19]

Soundtrack

Walt Disney Records released a series soundtrack album digitally and on streaming on May 10, 2023, [20] alongside a vinyl LP debut album titled The Electric Mayhem that featured the first fourteen tracks of the full soundtrack. [21] It featured the original songs written by Linda Perry, and cover versions of popular songs. [22] The soundtrack topped the Billboard Kid Albums chart, the first ever Muppets album to do so. [23]

Reception

Audience viewership

On May 4, 2023, according to Jordan Williams of Screen Rant , "The anticipation for The Muppets Mayhem clearly extends beyond its core child fanbase, as the series has generated remarkable buzz with over 1.3 million online interactions, becoming the ninth-most hyped May release on Facebook." [24]

Critical response

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported an approval rating of 86% based on 28 reviews with an average rating of 7.2/10. The site's critics consensus reads: "The Muppets Mayhem might be too slight to find the Rainbow Connection, but its ragtag band of plucky puppets and plethora of showbiz gags make for a solid addition to the franchise. [25] On Metacritic, the series has a weighted average score of 70 out of 100, based on 11 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews". [26]

Potential future projects

Goldberg has expressed interest in developing a "Muppetverse" similar to Marvel Studios and Star Wars stating, "it was like, we're just doing a show about the band; let's focus on this one very specific corner of the Muppet Universe... And from there, let's now kind of branch out and do even more. So that was always our idea. In fact, we were kind of more excited about introducing new Muppet characters. That was always a goal for us." [8] Following the show's cancellation, Goldberg revealed on social media that plans for a Muppetverse were still happening. [31]
