I tried, but I couldn't quite complete the first season.
The first half was boring, uninteresting, and worst of all, unfunny. The only characters that kept me coming back were Kermit, the occasionally appearance of the Swedish Chef, Sam the Eagle, and mostly Statler and Waldorf.
However, about halfway through the season, the show got significantly better and funnier! It became more self-aware and focused more on the muppets as characters and not what they did. Dr. Bunsen starts making appearances, Miss Piggy, Fozzy, and Animal become funnier, and the guest stars become more engaging.
I have to assume the show gets better after season one for so many people to love it - but I'm jumping ship here.
