Fans say the same thing about Sabrina Carpenter’s Muppets Show Special on Disney +
In 2004, Disney bought the rights of the majority of the MUPET films and television library. However, in the years that followed, they had more stumble than successful with the beloved and fuzzy characters of Jim Henson. While the film “The Muppets” in 2011 with Jason Segel was a successful success, the continuation that followed was not entirely up to the task, and there were various false departures on television here and there, going from an ABC workcom canceled like “The Office” to a start of streaming on Disney +.
However, it seems that Disney is preparing to bring the Muppets back under the spotlights largely. The Hollywood Reporter has a news that “The Muppet Show” is being stimulated in 2026, starting with a Disney + Special which will showcase the Pop Sabrina Carpenter sensation, which will also act as an executive producer on the project. Hope is that it will act as a stolen door pilot who effectively reintroduces the classic Mupets television program to a new audience.
Even more exciting is the fact that Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, fresh out of their many victories at Emmy for the Hilarious Comedy series “The Studio”, will act as executive producers thanks to their point Gray pictures alongside James Weaver and Alex McATEE. In addition, David Lightbody, Leigh Slaughter and Michael Steinbach will produce executive products for the Muppets Studio. Albertina Rizzo will write the special with Alex Timbers in the direction, and the two will also produce leaders. Matt Vogel and Eric Jacobson are also executive producers.
Most importantly, long -standing artists from Muppet Bill Barretta, Dave Goelz, Eric Jacobson, Peter Linz, David Rudman and Matt Vogel will be those behind most of the Muppets.
Given the META approach that “The Muppets Show” adopted to organize a variety show with famous guests and musical acts, both in human and muppet form, bringing Rogen and Goldberg is an inspiring touch, and using an artist at the head of cards like Sabrina Carpenter, who has an exceptional comedy audience.
For their part, many fans of Muppets and Sabrina Carpenter all seem to have the same reaction: they are enthusiastic about the perspective that the mupets come back significantly, in particular with Carpenter involved. But there is also an apprehension because of what is happening with ABC and the debacle involving “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” suddenly be removed from the air.
