Even though I did not have the chance to see this film in theaters, my attention was grabbed by the score, wonderfully written and produced by Danny Elfman. It really captures the essence of the era of Flower Power and awesome rock ‘n’ roll.

This season opener made me fall in love with the series all over again. From the dialogue, which was expertly executed by the cast, to the great guest stars and the sweet ending, this is what the doctor, no pun intended, ordered.

At the risk of sounding mildly repetitive in the matter, I’ll say this of BOOM! Studios’s take on the Robin Hood legend using Jim Henson’s Muppets: it is really, really, amazingly hilarious.
