No. It was a tv special called The Muppets At Walt Disney World. It aired in 1990.

Ok new info coming out. Seems that this show will be a docu-drama type ala The Office. It'll focus more on their personal lives outside the studio and be considered a more adult show. Im not sure if I want to see the personal lives....but I am curious about Gonzo/Camilla.

I'll be down to check this out. I love The Muppets. You just can't deny their charm. I grew up watching reruns of the Muppet Show, the original Muppet movies and Muppet Babies. Even after all of these years I still went to see the new Muppet movies in theaters even though the first one was just ok and the second was really bad.

The celebrity cameos aspect of the new show will be uninteresting mostly because today's pop culture celebrities can't hold a candle to the pop culture celebrities from the original Muppet Show. Kind of bummed to see that new Muppet from the new movies on the show (he's so bland and forgettable that I can't even remember his name) but I guess that was to be expected. Hopefully he won't have a big role. Just give me lots of The Great Gonzo. He was always my favorite. Also, lots of Statler and Waldorf!

So some stuff revealed at Comic Con:

The main plot is that Piggy has her own late night talk show called Up Late With Miss Piggy. Fozzie is her side-kick, Kermit's exec Producer, Writers are Gonzo, Pepe, and Rizzo, Scooter's the talent coordinator, Bobo is Stage manager, Sam is head of broadcast standards (of course! ), Denise (Kermit's girlfriend) is head of marketing.

Rowlf runs the bar across the street where the gang hangs out after work.

As for their personal lives. We know Fozzie's dating a human and Kermit's dating Denise but apparantly Gonzo's gonna try some online dating?!?! WTF?! So is he not with Camila anymore?!

So it sounds just like The Looney Tunes Show: take out all the things that made the show funny in the first place and replace it with soap opera drama.

Here it is... legally even. The 10 min pilot presentation shown to get the networks interested in doing a new Muppet show. ABC/Disney decided to put it online for all to see (there's even an explination at the start of it) And man is this totally hilarious. A bit odd hearing Kermit curse tho. Still... hilarious!

“Cut to interviews? That is just a totally overused devise to make easy jokes."

:Claps: Bravo, The Muppets, bravo. I hope that means they won’t abuse it like…every other show that's ever done it.

New posters for the show have popped up. The Fozzie one is a bit disturbing IMO

I dunna, the Kermit the Frog one makes me groan. I think I know what Frank Oz meant when he came out negatively toward The Muppets years back

Boy, my hands will be tied on Tuesdays.

The series is opposite CW's The Flash & Fox's Grandafthered (with Josh "Casey Jones" Peck) & The Grinder (with Fred Savage).

Peter and MJ. Lois and Clark. Now Kermit and Piggy.

What a crock of sh*t. You know the writers are a bunch of miserable dicks when they can't even allow fictional characters to have happy, healthy, stable relationships.

The lists of celebs appearing on the new Muppet show has begun to come out! Looks like Nathan Fillian, Imagine Dragons, Reese Witherspoon, and Kerry Washington.

And also possibly Ellen DeGeneres, Neil Gaiman, Tracee Ellis Ross, Ming Na (she and Kermit seemed rather chummy in some tweets), Emmy Rossum, Alan Cumming, Marc Jacobs, and Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Wonder if Piggy will discover where Nathan Fillian's hammer is?
