Oh, jokes aside, it's not just nostalgia, at least not in my case. Outside of Sesame Street, the only Muppets show we had here in Brazil when I was a kid was the original Muppets Babies cartoon. My first real exposure to them were The Muppets Take Manhattan movie and the Muppets Tonight show (which I will defend to my grave as a good show and worthy successor to the original!).
