Let me start by saying I love this show. But I found this blog entry I thougt I would share. It's about how 30 Rock is copying the muppets. I see how this can be true and it's funny.

The new Muppets show will be a mockumentary with a "30 Rock feel," according to Entertainment Weekly. Here's ABC's official logline: "The Muppets return to prime time with a contemporary, documentary-style show that—for the first time ever—will explore the Muppets' personal lives and relationships, both at home and at work, as well as romances, break-ups, achievements, disappointments, wants and desires; a more adult Muppet show, for kids of all ages."
