What was once gone has now been found again, Muppet (and Disney+) fans!
Muppets fans will enjoy seeing their favorite characters, as well as a few new ones.
After The Muppet Show, which ended its run in 1981 after 5 seasons, 150 episodes and countless guest stars, Jim Henson’s gaggle of charming characters (and the ceaselessly talented puppeteers behind them) made their way to movie theaters, animation, theme parks, the internet, and (several times) back to television, always experimenting but always trying to recapture the essential magic that made the original Muppet Show such a phenomenon (as evidenced by the amount of vaudevillian, “let’s put on a show” plotlines many of these projects centered around). But in recent years, it has been even harder for the …
On July 31, Muppets Now debuts on Disney+ and it is a certifiable hoot. Each episode is compiled of different, unscripted shows from your favorite Muppet characters – Missy Piggy has a style vlog, Pepe hosts a low-rent game show, the Swedish Chef goes toe-to-toe with celebrity chefs (and Danny Trejo) and Dr. Bunson Honeydew (and his trusty assistant Beaker) engage in science experiments where something inevitably ends up destroyed. It’s pure, uncorked Muppet lunacy and it is side-splittingly funny. (That’s about all we can say, before the embargo lifts. We don’t want to …
The Muppets, mercifully, are back. Muppets Now, the first new Muppets-related content from Disney since the ill-fated faux documentary sitcom The Muppets crashed and burned after a single season on ABC, is set to debut on Disney+ on July 31. And to get everyone prepared, the company has released a new clip, described as a “Muppets Video Call,” between the Muppets and Joe the Legal Weasel, an uptight character introduced last year at the D23 Expo who purely exists to ruin the Muppets’ freewheeling fun. It is, as always, a hoot. The clip is structured like a calamitous …
The Muppets are back. For real, this time. (We hope.) The trailer has just been revealed for Muppets Now, a new short-form Muppets series debuting on Disney+ on July 31. And it looks good. With tons of celebrity guests (including Seth Rogen, Aubrey Plaza and RuPaul) and the trademark zany Muppet humor, it looks like this could be Disney’s funniest – and most successful – attempt at revitalizing the characters for a new audience. At the core conceit of Muppets Now is that each Muppet has his or her own unscripted series – one could be a cooking show, the other …
Sherman's Showcase is a hard show to explain but a very easy one to fall in love with. The creators of one of the smartest sketch comedy series being made today have "35 to 40 years" of comedy experience between them, but writers Diallo Riddle and Bashir Salahuddin still get surprised by reality. Their IFC sketch comedy series features a conceit that lets them experiment with all sorts of genres, as the series is framed around a fictional long-running TV show hosted by the titular Sherman (Salahuddin). While the show is reminiscent of Soul Train and other variety …
This morning, as part of Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+’s celebration of National #StreamingDay, Disney+ announced the new original series Muppets Now will premiere July 31 on the service. That's the first we've heard about the new puppet-driven streaming series since the announcement last August. Now, the Muppets themselves are getting in on the festivities as Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, and the gang joined in the fun and shared their own unique spin on the series’ original key art. Muppets Now is The Muppets Studio’s first original series for Disney+. In the six-episode season, "…
Are you curious about the new Disney+ original series Prop Culture, but don't know what to expect? Look no further because a new clip from the show hosted by film historian and prop collector Dan Lanigan provides the perfect taste of what you will see over the course of eight episodes. The fun and illuminating new clip from Prop Culture features Lanigan checking out two incredible props from the 1979 feature The Muppet Movie. The props in question? The actual Kermit puppet operated by Jim Henson as well as the headband worn by Henson which held the microphone he …
