The Muppets Take Manhattan is yet another retread of the reliable old formula in which somebody says Hey, gang! Our senior class musical show is so good, I'll bet we could be stars on Broadway! The fact that this plot is not original does not deter you, Kermit, nor should it. It's still a good plot.
