ABC fail

Can’t wait for that extra-long Lost finale? Well, neither, apparently, can the Muppets.

The video was uploaded to the show’s YouTube channel yesterday — depicting Rizzo the Rat and Co. invading the Lost offices, looking for answers — and is just the latest in a stream of Muppet/pop culture integrations. They’ve riffed on a ton of songs of late — including Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” for which they won a Webby.

Well, I would have liked to have seen this video (even though I'm not a Lost fan, I am certainly a Muppets fan)... but if you click to view from within Australia, the following message appears:

Nice work ABC. You blocked a viral video from another producer, advertising the public interest surrounding the last episode of your own show.

Viral advertising fail.
