The Muppet Show - Season 1

Perhaps the strangest variety show ever to air on television the wildly popular 'Muppet Show' helped to spawn an entire series starring Jim Henson's crew of puppet comedians. Combining musical numbers with comedy 'The Muppet Show' centred on the efforts of Kermit the Frog and his team of performers to put on a weekly show featuring both the onstage acts as well as the backstage problems. Each week a new guest star among the most distinguished entertainers of the time would appear to participate in some of the skits and assist Kermit in making order out of the backstage chaos. Although the humour of The Muppet Show was often more adult and occasionally risque than the later Muppet endeavours it was still appropriate for every member of the family. Season One contains all 24 episodes of the program's first year (the 1976-77 television season). Special Features: Original Muppet Pitch Reel The Original Muppet Show Pilot Muppet Morsels Season One Promo Gag Reel
