It's time to play the music! It's time to light the lights! It's time to raise the curtain for the NEW Muppet Show TONIGHT (aptly titled, The Muppets)!!!
That's right gang! For all of us who have waited with the patience of a saint for Disney to FINALLY put the Muppets back on TV, your wait is over! Premeiring tonight at 8pm on ABC the Muppets are back thanks to the brilliance of Bill Prady (The Big Bang Theory) and Bob Kushell (Anger Management) who are producing along with the most amazing performers in the biz - Bill Barretta (Rowlf the Dog, Dr. Teeth), Eric Jacobson (Miss Piggy, Animal, Sam the Eagle), David Rudman (Scooter, Janice), Matt Vogel (Robin, Floyd Pepper), Peter Linz (Walter), Steve Whitmire (Kermit the Frog, Rizzo the Rat), and Muppet veteran performer David Goelz (The Great Gonzo).
In this more adult-centered show (not that the Muppets weren't always for adults), the Muppets are developing a brand new talk show for Piggy that airs right after the Jimmy Kimmel Show and is presented in 'mockumentary' style, much like that of The Office.
