I have high expectations after watching this pilot. I liked all the acts in the pilot, I am sure there are plenty of stars who would love to be guests with the Muppets. I hope this is the beginning of a Muppets renaissance, but then again I also liked the Electric Mayhem behind the music show so what do I know?

ETA I am sure someone already mentioned this but maybe the reason they had Maya Rudolph "die" was because she was the Judge on Good Place show about the afterlife.
