    Not the mama!

    Apparently the show was one of Jim hensen's ideas, and the concept was what he was working on when he passed away. Wikipedia says it was only greenlit because of the success of the Simpsons, which showed an oddball sitcom could work, which it did for 4 years.

    I don’t remember it much other than enjoying watching it.

    I also remember playing the theme song for it in my middle schools band.

    The ending was pretty dark, and came a bit before the widespread acceptance of the Chicxulub impact.
