These would be fun projects to see, I'd be in favor of both. Moved from Entertainment to The Toon Zone.

Sorry it was in Time Magizine back in like 2004-05



7/2004

The show hasn't been brought up in an official Disney/Henson press release per say, but it's been in development for awhile now.

It's basically a new animated CGI show with the Muppet Babies. Apparently, the plan is that the puppeteers will still operate the characters via the "Waldo" system.

Keep in mind though, with the Disney deal they may want to go in a different direction. We will probably hear something official on this in the next 12 months.

I remember that. By now I guess we can assume it fell through?
