ABC has announced that Broadway's Kristin Chenoweth will guest star as herself on the next episode of THE MUPPETS, titled. 'Ex-Factor', tonight, November 3!
In the scene from last night's episode of ABC's THE MUPPETS, titled 'Hostile Makeover', when Kermit sets Miss Piggy up with Josh Groban in an attempt to make her happy, he may get more than he bargained for!
I grew up watching the MUPPET BABIES, loving the whimsy of the odd, but relatable creatures (although always frustrated that we couldn't see Nanny's face). Then, MUPPETS TONIGHT debuted during my freshman year of high school and I started to really understand the joys of a variety show (only later for that to be enhanced by finding clips of THE MUPPET SHOW on YouTube). Also, I adored 2011's big screen THE MUPPETS; in fact “Man or Muppet” is still in heavy rotation on my iTunes. So anytime there is a new addition to the Muppets Universe, my inner-child takes notice. However, as details of their new TV show (also confusingly called THE MUPPETS) started being revealed, that inner child began to feel left out. The idea was to reinvent the Muppets in a more real-life, adult sitcom; yes, a real-life, adult sitcom, starring felt puppets.
While promoting the upcoming ABC series THE MUPPETS at this week's Television Critics Association summer press tour, it was announced that celebrity couple Kermit and Miss Piggy have called it quits.
From one bad girl to another: in this week's 'Vulture Remix,' the legendary Miss Piggy performs a rendition of Rihanna's hit 'Bitch Better Have My Money.'
The Center for Puppetry Arts continues to make progress on its highly anticipated expansion and renovation project. As part of the museum's new permanent exhibit, Worlds of Puppetry, the Center is releasing further details on the Jim Henson Collection gallery, which will house the world's most comprehensive exhibit of Jim Henson's puppets, props, scenic elements and other items. The interactive gallery will include more than 75 Henson characters and artifacts at one time, offering a look into Henson's work with a reproduction of his working office, a mock television studio, a homage to Sesame Street and more!
