I couldn’t resist.
I told myself not to write about the Muppets Bhomeniam Rhapsody video that’s floating around online. I figured it would become so popular so quickly that, by the time I got around to it, it would be completely irrelevant.
Sounds like a lesson in procrastination more than anything.
But you know what? Even though it has received over one million views in 24 hours – and been mentioned everywhere, from Maclean’s to Mashable – this video is far from irrelevant. In fact, nothing Muppet-related could ever become irrelevant because those characters appeal to both our childish imagination and our adult sense of nostalgia. That makes it timeless.
Oh and it’s just plain awesome.
Even if it turns out that this video is part of an ad campaign for Viagra or adult diapers, I will gladly buy whatever they’re selling because the video is just that brilliant.
Special shout-out to Beaker at around the 2 minute mark. That guy is my hero!
