The Muppets Are Back Like Never Before

I grew up watching The Muppet Show. I loved watching all the craziness that a group of misfits who seemed to always make it work while providing family entertainment.

Fast forward now to a different time where social media is the first place most turn to for the news, and reality TV is the furthest thing from reality, yet is to many of the next generation. Now put The Muppets into this world and you have The Muppets. The show takes us into the personal lives of The Muppets, behind the scenes, in their homes…and yes, we can see who’s dating who. Sounds like a perfect fun show with characters we grew up with becoming relevant in today’s world.

The Muppets Are Back Like Never Before

So think of this as an “adult” Muppet Show if you will. ABC gave me access to the first episode, and let me tell you, the break away documentary style shooting, hilarious! Take a look at what you can expect from ABC’s The Muppets in this behind the scenes look with Kermit and Piggy.

So what to expect on the premiere episode? Kermit will take you behind the scenes to see the how the gang produce a late night talk show Up Late with Miss Piggy.

It’s been confirmed that the end of the long lived romance ended between Kermit and Miss Piggy earlier this year. The drama of Kermit and Denise, his new girlfriend pigfriend, has Piggy being a bit difficult about the first show. Makes you wonder, is she over Kermit?
