April 3, 201511 yr Member ABC is developing a muppet show reboot from "Big Bang Theory" EP 85003ec18e447dc639ddc258de8a26fe " data-width="500"> 85003ec18e447dc639ddc258de8a26fe "> ABC Television Network is reviving The Muppet Show! Posted by Entertainment Weekly on Friday, 3 April 2015
April 3, 201511 yr Member Jesus! Can't people come up with new, original ideas anymore. I hate when these networks do reboots only to cancel them just as quickly b/c the ready made audience they want isn't there immediately. Case in point? Charlie's Angels.
April 3, 201511 yr Member Didn't this already happen a number of years ago, when the muppets ran a tv-station? So will this be a reboot of a reboot?
April 3, 201511 yr Member You don't know how much I hate that Disney has ownership of the Muppet franchise....
April 3, 201511 yr Member I see this as something different bc the Muppets are already a franchise with multiple shows, movies, and other projects. Disney's involvement, though
April 3, 201511 yr Member Without Jim Henson the Muppets have never been the same. The last Muppet Show reboot failed; I don't see why things would have changed. If you haven't read the book about the founding of CTW, try to do so. It's a depressing book, but it has details about just how hard Jim Henson's family had to fight Disney. http://www.amazon.com/Street-Gang-Complete-History-Sesame/dp/0143116630
