* SpiritualSuccessor:
** It's been gaining comparisons to ''Film/MeetTheFeebles'', another film that gives us a darker look at puppets usually used in children's shows. The difference being that this film was made by the actual creators of ''The Muppets''.
** People have also compared the movie to ''WesternAnimation/SausageParty'', another R-rated film that could be easily mistaken for a kids' movie.
** It's very similar to ''Theatre/AvenueQ'', another dark, raunchy comedy that happens to involve muppets.
** The basic premise of a crime story involving characters from a stylized medium as real people and second-class citizens is similar to ''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit''.
** An earlier movie called ''The Fuzz'' featured a puppet cop tracking down the dealers of a GRatedDrug (Jelly Beans rather than sugar), partnering with a human cop and dealing with anti-puppet prejudice. It was also of a darker, more adult tone.

* ButNotTooBlack: Since ''The Happytime Gang'' went off the air, Phil's brother Larry got some work done -- he has a more human-shaped nose, when he used to have a bulbous one similar to Phil's, and his, er, felt has been bleached to more of a pale blue.

* GRatedDrug: Rather ironic for an R-rated movie, sugar and candy are treated as hard drugs for puppets. Edwards [[spoiler:who has a puppet liver]] is snorting rock candy with a Twizzler as if it was cocaine, and it's even said that it's normally ''fatal'' for humans.
