1. The Muppets are coming to ABC in their new show The Muppets, premiering on September 22. It will feature Kermit the Frog, Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy and many more. It will be the Muppets’ first starring role in a show since Muppets Tonight, which was cancelled in 1998. The new show will focus on the Muppets’ personal lives and relationships. Fans have never seen anything like what The Muppets has to offer. The show will entertain people of all ages, as it adds a special twist that presents the Muppets in a way that can entertain adults and children alike. Kermit the frog describes it as a “sort of an adult Muppet show.” You won’t want to miss The Muppets when it airs this month.
