Unless you’re Disney. “Seven months, millions of views and four Emmys later, there has been no pickup” of *The Muppet Show* as a series, *Deadline* reported on Thursday. “There have been difficulties cracking a premise for an ongoing *Muppet Show* series that Disney (Disney+ and 20th TV), The Muppets Studio and \[Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg’s production company\] will all be on board for.” The premise is *The Muppet Show*. You just do *THE MUPPET SHOW*.

The seventh *Star Wars*film had everything going for it. There had been a decade since *The Revenge of the Sith*had seemingly closed out the franchise. The original trilogy’s stars were back. And *The Force Awakens* opened in the perfect December window to capitalize on the most lucrative combo of holidays and school vacations. *Avengers: Endgame* couldn’t break its record. The *Avatar* sequels couldn’t break its record. Then *Spider-Man: Brand New Day* came out of nowhere this summer and has already joined *The Force Awakens* this weekend as the only two members of the $900 million club.

They’re not personalized cups of ramen, but *KPop Demon Hunters* has entered its cereal era. (Look, Snackology isn’t in the business of interfering with anyone in the middle of their napalm era.) A year after the animated movie turned into a massive phenomenon last summer, you can now find HUNTR/X Peach Mango Lucky Charms and Saja Boys Secret Flavor Cinnamon Toast Crunch wherever you buy cereal.

Since that fateful day last September, I’ve been impressed by this beverage genre, enjoying Pepsi Prebiotic Sodas and Poppi Punch Pop too. (The rumored Coca-Cola Zero Sugar Prebiotic Soda absolutely has my snack radar on high too.) I’m even drinking a Grape Olipop as I write this newsletter. What better way to celebrate this anniversary than with the limited-edition Olipop Caramel Apple?

What other explanation besides Michaels still holding a grudge could explain *SNL* bringing Gillis back to host for the third time? NBC announced the first four hosts for Season 52 on Wednesday, with Jalen Brunsonhosting when *SNL* returns on Sept. 26\. The NBA champion will be followed by Dakota Johnson on Oct. 3, Gillis on Oct. 10 and Inde Navarrette on Oct. 31\. You’ll note that there’s a two-week break between Gillis’s episode and Navarrette getting to anchor the Halloween show.
