Reviews of "Muppets Now" have been generally positive, especially comparing it to ABC's dud show, 2016's "The Muppets" Here is a summary of critics' opinions:

Hollywood Reporter: " The Muppets Now has a healthy number of laughs, reasonable all-ages appeal, and a handful of memorable moments throughout the four 30-minute episodes sent to critics Still, Muppets Now feels like it uses only about a tenth of the brand's potential, failing to capitalize on the ensemble of television's most profound scene stealers

Vulture: "In this stressful world, who doesn't need The Muppets? I was more than satisfied with the first four of the season's six episodes, which will air one episode each week starting this Friday, and the mix of silly and meta humor that has always defined the best Muppet comedies"

Rolling Stone Magazine "Overall, the sketches are pretty good The bigger problem is that there are only two Muppets in every sketch, and they almost always appear in the same combination In addition, there is almost no backstage element to 'Muppets Now'"

AV Club "[Muppets Now is] Disney's best effort to date in bringing Henson's most famous work back to television It's not all the Muppets' charm (fortunately, other qualities are also on display here), but it's a good starting point"

The Muppets Now: "The Muppets Now is Disney's best effort to date to bring Henson's most famous work back to television
