Floyd has always been Animal's "handler", going back to The Muppet Show days. He literally keeps him on a chain leash! But learning this is how they met brings a whole new emotional layer to their friendship. Loved it.
Baby Animal's laugh is what makes this scene. It's as if he realizes that he's finally getting his forever home because it's clear that Floyd will never abandon him like everyone else has.
My favorite part of this scene is how the the note on Baby Animal's cage says "KEEP" which implies the person who left Animal really, REALLY didn't want him. 😅 But when Floyd took animal in, he took that note as a promise. We see Floyd look at the same note while Animal is sleeping, representing how Animal is family and Floyd will continue to *keep* Animal in his heart forever.
@@justincredible8667 Mickey Mouse is just a drawn line. Actors are just people reciting a script. Superheroes are just people hanging from wires with special effects. You know 75% of media is fiction, right? But if something makes you feel, then it's real.
This actually makes sense since I've been rewatching my Muppet Show DVDs. Animal seems the most calm around Floyd. Literally, Floyd in the show tells him, "Down, boy, easy now." And Animal just immediately simmers down. Edit: Who'd have thought a backstory of a wild, red puffball and a chill bassist would make me cry from such a sweet relationship.😢
Man, I had no idea about this piece of lore. This is really heartwarming... Heck, you can even feel the "tired but happy parent" vibes in Floyd's eyes!
I was very impressed with Muppets Mayhem from the 1st episode. I recall "Can you Picture That?" from 30+ years ago in the Muppets Movie (original) and "Bridge Over Troubled Water" felt really authentic and smart, and surprisingly well-written for a Disney production in 2023.
That's because head puppeteer Bill Barretta (Dr. Teeth) was the executive producer, while the other two big cheeses (Adam F. Goldberg and Jeff Yorkes) are big Muppet fans. Plus they had excellent writers as well. The credit belongs to all of them.
Yeah you know that Disney is doing something right when they have people actually feeling emotional about a scene that we all been wanting to see for a minute cause honestly I am very impressed
Yeah. When they're not tied down by managerial incompetence or trying to out- woke every other entertainment company, they can still bring in some real poignancy at times.
Adamguy2003 Imagine unironically calling Disney "wOkE" as a vague insult, when they give the most halfhearted attempt at including that content that people who use that word complain about And this isn't even to Disney's credit anyway, because the quality of this show is due to Bill Barretta (an actual Muppet performer) being put in charge alongside a good staff and writing team
This is really heartwarming, but it really sad that his real parents abandoned him as a baby like they don't want him anymore. But this nice, cool, Rockstar adopted him. I assumed other people treats him like he's a wild animal, but Floyd raised him as he is own son
I like to assume that this was a slightly older version of baby animal and it was Nanny from Muppet Babies who dropped him off. She couldn't take him anymore.
@@welcometothemetaverse2523I doubt it, from the note simply saying "KEEP." Nanny is more articulate than that, She likely would have written a proper letter. I get the feeling Animal's birth parents were almost as savage as him, hence the one- word note.
I personally think Baby Animal from this flashback sequence is pretty young compared to the ones from both Muppet Babies series. The one from the 2018 Muppet Babies is the oldest, because he and his friends were preschool aged children in that series.
I won't front, I actually teared up at this flashback scene. After watching a few episodes of "The Muppets: Mayhem," I can strongly say that this is the BEST series from Disney in a long time, their past attempts were lacking to say the least. I think they found the right people to work on the series.
This is just a beautiful scene. I love how the show brings a whole new layer of humanity to the electric mayhem. All the characters that get prominent spotlights. Dr teeth, Janice , animal, floyd are giving this new layer of humanity to them make them flushed out and relatable, while zoot and lips remaining mostly as comic relief even if they don’t really need a backstory, it would be cool to see if we ever get a second season
Ever since watching this heartwrenching scene from Muppets Mayhem, I have felt it necessary to scream it from the rooftops that Animal is basically Floyd’s child. Floyd’s not his handler, but his father figure. There’s a whole bunch of interview videos that just bring out that dynamic…the more I watch the more the pieces fit together.
Getting out of the cage and the cold was what this poor baby needed. That's why I respect Animal and Floyd. Floyd knows when Animal is gonna reach his limit, but he never ever placed him back in the cage.
It's interesting that from this we can take away that Floyd is perhaps the closest thing Animal had to a father growing up. It completely explains why Animal respects his commands when Floyd tells him to settle down. The note however really makes me sad. In one word so many potential stories unfold. The one that I think it means is that whoever wrote it not only has Animal's level of simplicity, but also that they themselves realised that Animal deserved more than they could provide and that they probably knew that Floyd was a good person and could be trusted with the life of their child.
This show was actually so good and underrated. The only complaint I have was the music like maybe 2 songs where good. By comparison to there old music. Tbh.
this scene made me cry. now it all makes sense. why floyd seem to be the only one to calm him down. i want another season & more backstory for Zoot or Janice finds her sister, etc.
I also would like a backstory for Lips. I always wondered how and why the band hired a sixth member. Maybe an in-universe explanation on why he mumbles. I'd like to imagine that his family mumbles too and that was just how he learned to talk.
Wish there's a future Muppet film Featuring the Return of Kermit's Old Nemesis Doc Hopper, Doc Hopper will Plan His Revenge on the Muppets by Taking over the Muppet Theatre! Dun Dun Dun!
(Muppet babies) Flyod:. Sup kid ready? Baby animal: yay! Flyod back… *sniffs* you smell like smoking *sniffs* and drinking Flyod: I had a few beers but I’m good to drive

The first thought of most when they see a baby on their doorstep is how to care for them. Floyd’s first thought was “frick it, let’s rock.”
That's a champ right there
@@erintwomey3846 that kid's goin places
And he was amazing at it.
Proud to let his feelings out but that's ok cause we all know how beautiful and humble he is
And the risk payed off
Floyd has always been Animal's "handler", going back to The Muppet Show days. He literally keeps him on a chain leash! But learning this is how they met brings a whole new emotional layer to their friendship. Loved it.
Also adds an extra layer to that scene in 2011 where he gets Animal to drum again, it’s a dad encouraging his son to follow his dreams again
I used to think Floyd and Janice were Animal’s parents when I was little.
🤯thank you so much for that added context
Really
@@butt5fulAnd you weren't wrong.
Animal being Floyd's as well as the Mayhem's collective son was the Muppet lore I never knew I needed.
RIGHT?!?!?!
I love how Baby Animal goes from whimpers and begging eyes to being completely done just by being picked up 😂
Like cats
Animal was cute as a baby.
Reminds me of an angry furby 😅
that was the person holding the camera
@@marthagilbert3459I mean have you not seen muppet babies?

Nanny couldn't cope with baby Animal anymore. Not after he mauled Skeeter.

An unwanted child.
An unready father.
I like that Animal's pajamas are the same ones from the beginning of Muppets from Space
Me 2.
Same here.
Yeah I do too. I love the idea of bringing back clothes and costumes the characters wore in previous projects
Man, I had no idea about this piece of lore. This is really heartwarming... Heck, you can even feel the "tired but happy parent" vibes in Floyd's eyes!

I'm just now realizing Floyd rocked Animal in his hammock....WELL...here come the tears.
I know. Isn't this whole clip just sweet.
I noticed it the 2nd time 😭😭😭
Man, baby animal is adorable😊
Yeah, but careful, it bites.
@@average-art3222 animal's a boy.
@@andrewtheanimalboy8482 yeah, he bites, that's all 😅

Yeah I like that Floyd happily takes Animal trying to bite him in stride.
Si que hermoso es querer a un niño que no lo quieren sus padres
Floyd is a good friend and father
I mean, you can be a good friend and a good dad at the same time.
I wanna hug Baby Animal...
I think this one is even cuter than muppet babies version of Animal

What can top Baby Yoda?
Baby Animal.
Holy shit... holy shit so he was like their son all along. I didn't know I woule get so emotional about them
That was cool when they gave Animal a back story on how he and Floyd met in the first place!
Whoever left Animal there left him in good hands.
Baby animal is so cute, Animal has always been my favorite character 🥺
I love that the note reads an animal's voice perfectly. KEEP!
That's the sweetest backstory I have ever heard. Floyd has been there for Animal for years.
floyds first thoughts was *this kid do be goin places time to teach him the drums*
They later show baby Animal jamming with Floyd and Doctor Teeth in the Mayhem Bus.

Not only we have a great song but also the more adorable thing I ever seen in my life.
most touching scene in muppets mayhem
This is the first time I've noticed that the guitar case says Fred Zeppelin.
Baby Animal looks so cute 😃 😊😄

So Floyd is the adoptive father of Animal well that explains why we always see Animal with Floyd in every movie and TV show.
Getting out of the cage and the cold was what this poor baby needed. That's why I respect Animal and Floyd. Floyd knows when Animal is gonna reach his limit, but he never ever placed him back in the cage.
And so another Disney plushie was born
Funny how he just started singing out the end
Floyd is animal's dad? That is so sweet
I’m not crying! You’re crying!😭
I never expected anything so deep from these guys

mine and my bestie's head-canon is that Animal is Floyd's kid
God this show is perfect I’m so disappointed that it doesn’t get the fame it should
Awww baby animal looks so adorable
Baby animal is so cute 😍
I love seeing Floyd as a father figure to Animal
They totally need to make a stuffed "animal" of Baby Animal, id buy the hell out of that!!!
That’s so cute 🥺💖
This show was actually so good and underrated. The only complaint I have was the music like maybe 2 songs where good. By comparison to there old music. Tbh.
Floyd's that dad that stepped up.
this scene made me cry. now it all makes sense. why floyd seem to be the only one to calm him down. i want another season & more backstory for Zoot or Janice finds her sister, etc.

well..there's still a story to be told in how he wound up in that cage that Floyd found.
i was surprised by how good this show was
Ooooohhh my rock Floyd is animal’s adopted father 😮
Gotta admit it got to me when In the scene before this one Floyd starts singing and Animal looks at him and sezs baby song.
That is so freaking adorable, I can't even....
Goooo bye bye! Eyayaya...
Okay that's adorable
Baby animal is so cute 🥰
Awww Baby Animal is so cute
Plankton: Cute...overload! Aah!
Floyd saw a little fuzzball in a cage and went "I have a son now" and that's amazing
Awww❤❤❤❤ Baby Animal is so cute🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
Man animal is adorable
He looks so adorable!
Reminds me of my dog lol. Underbite and all
SUPER CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTE! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Animal is so adorable i just wanted to adopt him
I thought Animal was just his crazy bandmate, not his adopted son!
Animal is like my most favorite Muppet.
Who else thought Animal and Floyd were brothers? 😂😭
So Animal was abandoned in a cage on a doorstep, then got adopted when he was a baby?
I did not expect a Muppets miniseries from Disney + to make me cry. This is TOO CUTE
I must be becoming an old man, but I liked the Muppet Babies version of animal better. Still a cute sentiment though :)
Awesome🥰👍
Ever since watching this adorable scene, I headcannon that Floyd is Animal's adopted father, and the other members helped Floyd with raising Animal.
OK HERE WE GO NOW
Wish there's a future Muppet film Featuring the Return of Kermit's Old Nemesis Doc Hopper, Doc Hopper will Plan His Revenge on the Muppets by Taking over the Muppet Theatre! Dun Dun Dun!
So Floyd is is adoptive father, I never knew.
Okay....that was tooth rottingly sweet and I almost regret not having Disney +.
Looks like I need to find a pirating site
This makes me love floyd and animal all the more
Animal is so cute as a baby
BABY ANIMAL IS SO CUTE!!!
(Muppet babies)
Flyod:. Sup kid ready?
Baby animal: yay! Flyod back… *sniffs* you smell like smoking *sniffs* and drinking
Flyod: I had a few beers but I’m good to drive
LMAOOO
the part where they had to have Animal put to sleep was so sad. maybe that was robot chicken idk i'm always stoned
That was Robot Chicken, and it is definitely not canon. They would never kill off Animal. Oh, and if you're stoned, get off the marshmallows.
So Floyd is technically Animal's dad? I had no idea. That's actually so cute.
I was expecting baby Animal to look like his Muppet Babies counterpart, but this version is cute too.
Can I just say that the baby animal puppet is so stinking cute & I want a plushie of one so bad-!😢❤❤❤
WHY AM I CRYING!!!!!
Awww
So that's how animal came here, Floyd adopted him😲😲😲😲😲😲
Awww, poor baby Animal.
STOP THIS IS MAKING ME CRY 😭😭😭
He may be animal but he looks so cute as a baby he looks like a lion
Karen: Cute overload. [Karen's computer head spins rapidly, short circuits and blows out. Then her screen goes into rebooting.]
This is how Muppet Babies should actually work
Why y'all got my crying this early in the the morning 😭😭😭😭😭
I cried so much during this episode
