While walking the red carpet, Miss Piggy\u2019s tail pops out, causing quite a stir. The network wanted her to apologize, but a young pig came to the show&#8217;s taping and said how inspired she was, so Piggy changes her mind. She decides to make a PSA titled \u201c#UnveilTheTail,\u201d but the network president threatens Kermit. After a veritable \u201cI am Sparatacus\u201d moment, Joan Jett comes out and sings \u201cBad Reputation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also in this episode, Gonzo is sad because Groundhog Day is the anniversary that Camilla walked out on him, so Pepe and Rizzo try to cheer him up. Part of that is by getting him to move. The house they look at is too expensive, so the three of them decide to move in together. Later on, at a party celebrating the \u201cUnveil the Tail\u201d event, after a cameo by Ian Ziering, Camilla shows up. Cliffhanger.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Muppets &quot;Unveil The Tail&quot; Promo (HD)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QqwR9jxs8Co?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>With this episode, The Muppets kind of continues along with some of the \u201cchanges\u201d introduced last week while still adhering to the character of the show as a whole. On \u201cUp Late,\u201d we saw a taste of inclusion of the other Muppets, with Animal playing a game, and a special musical performance from Joan Jett. With the refocusing last week, the showrunners talked about bringing more joy to the show, and I think this episode continues that tradition. The reintroduction of Camilla is definitely something some hardcore Muppet fans have been wanting, so it will be interesting to see where they go with that.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Muppets: Episode 12 Recap\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qZulG75pf_A?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>As was the case last week, if you saw the first episode or two and decided you didn\u2019t like the show, give it another chance.
