To mark the 50th anniversary of Jim Henson’s classic variety series, Disney revives The Muppet Show as a one-off special event, bringing Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Gonzo, and the rest of the Muppet gang back to the original Muppet Theatre stage. The special features singer and actress Sabrina Carpenter as the main guest star, with additional appearances from Maya Rudolph and Seth Rogen, who also serves as an executive producer.

🔔The Muppet Show Special [2026] Season 1 premiere date: February 4, 2026 🔔

Directed by Alex Timbers and produced by The Muppets Studio and Point Grey Pictures, the special aims to recapture the controlled chaos of the original show: musical numbers, sketch comedy, backstage meltdowns, and fourth-wall-breaking gags, all staged for both nostalgic adults and new younger viewers. Veteran Muppet performers Bill Barretta, Dave Goelz, Eric Jacobson, Peter Linz, David Rudman, and Matt Vogel return to voice and puppeteer the iconic characters, giving the event a strong continuity with the original series.

Why it Resonates:

Celebrates 50 years of The Muppet Show with many original performers still involved.
Cross-generational appeal for parents who grew up with the Muppets and kids meeting them anew.
High-profile guest stars and producers signal a major, not throwaway, franchise event.
Variety format fits current nostalgia for classic TV while still feeling playful and contemporary.

Conclusion:
The Muppet Show special functions as both a love letter to Henson’s original creation and a proof-of-concept for a possible modern revival, blending musical spectacle and anarchic Muppet humor in a single, family-friendly event.
