did I miss something? what was considered offensive on the Muppets?

The original Muppet Show is from the 70s and there's several episodes that use ethnic stereotypes that are pretty widely accepted as offensive today, so those episode have a warning before them on Disney+.

I don't remember that at all.

This skit, for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LAn_8JswfA

Or this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5dtfILU9S4

Not as bad as some of Disney's other stuff (Peter Pan just makes me cringe watching it now) but still, I see why they thought the warning was needed.

NAYRT - I love the Muppet Show, and over all, it tended towards the liberal end of the spectrum, but it was the 70s/early 80s. Just off the top of my head, there's the Peter Sellers g*psy bit and various "island savage" skits. Also, Johnny Cash sings "Ghostriders in the Sky" with a confederate flag behind him. Just sayin.
