Puppets will take a walk on the wild side as part of a new late-night game show.

"Late Night Liars," debuting next month on GSN, features a panel of what the channel calls saucy and uncensored "celebrity puppets." Actor-comedian Larry Miller is the host.

The puppets are designed by Henson Alternative, a label of the Jim Henson Co. that focuses on projects aimed at adults — meaning no Muppets or other beloved Henson creations will be on the game show.

Among the cocktail-swilling puppet characters to be included: Cashmere Ramada, described as a famous "celebutante and tabloid target," and Shelley Oceans, a brash comedian. Contestants vie for cash prizes by deciding whether the puppets are telling true or false stories.

"I've always loved the show business-type game shows, like `Match Game,' `Hollywood Squares,' where they have folks from show business and everyone's probably drunk," quipped Miller ("10 Things I Hate About You," "Best in Show").

"Late Night Liars" begins 11 p.m. EDT Thursday, June 10, on the GSN channel.

If no known Muppets are involved then why does the promo image show Sal Minella and possably a version of Fifi the Poodle?
