Sure, Apple TV+ has Fraggle Rock and HBO Max has Elmo, but Disney+ isn’t quaking in its boots, not with the Muppets to help them weather this puppet renaissance. Next month, the streamer will launch Muppets Now, an “unscripted” series that finds the gang mingling with a host of different celebrities. It’s the first use of Jim Henson’s characters since ABC axed its 2016 mockumentary series, The Muppets.
According to Entertainment Weekly, the six-episode show follows Scooter as he readies the gang for each chaotic episode. Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Bunsen, Beaker, and even Pepé the King Prawn are on hand in the below clip, which also teases celebrity appearances from Seth Rogen, RuPaul, Aubrey Plaza, and many more.
