The Muppet Show
It's time to raise the curtain on The Muppet Show!
Created by Jim Henson
On ITV1
A joyful, anarchic variety show built on affection between a stable cast of puppet characters, where the comedy comes from personality and chaos rather than cruelty.
Go behind the curtains as Kermit the Frog and his muppet friends struggle to put on a weekly variety show.
