I guess it was done recently with Jim Henson's The Dark Crystal follow up TV series. It was nothing short of brilliant.

Except they used exstensive CGI for that series along with practice effects.

Did they? Shame on them, thought it was all practical effects.

It's not as bad as you think. It compliments the practical effects. https://nerdist.com/article/dark-crystal-age-of-resistance-vfx-reel/

Tx. I really enjoyed the entire series, and even felt the Kermit walk sometimes (they put the puppet sideways and moved in an awkward way, typical for thi practical effect). Hope they get to make the 2nd season, as it seems Netflix didn't want to make it anymore.

I've never seen this show, but wtf is this mentality? If you thought it was all practical, then didn't they succeed in their job as artists? Why do you feel the need to say "shame on them"....
