According to Variety, Bill Prady, co-creator of The Big Bang Theory and original Muppets alumnus, is currently in talks to reboot The Muppet Show on ABC!!!
They will soon shoot the pilot under the name Muppets 2015 (which I'm sure they will change.) This is not the first try to reboot the Muppets on TV (none lasted very long), but the first attempt since the successful movie releases in 2011 & 2014. Proving they still have their sense of humor, the press release states... |
“The Muppets excitedly gather at ABC for a meeting about the new Muppet Show. However, the show will not move forward unless Miss Piggy signs on.”
Sign on the dotted line, Miss Piggy and let's make this happen!
