“Bringing Muppet Babies to Disney Junior is a wonderful opportunity to reach a new generation of viewers and to creatively build on the innovative original series,” Debbie McClellan, vice president of The Muppets Studio, said in a statement.
Muppet Babies, the ’80s cartoon that imagined Kermit the Frog and friends as toddlers, will return for new computer-animated adventures in 2018 on Disney Junior.
The Muppets, a reboot of the variety show format used by The Muppet Show, ran for one season on ABC before being canceled earlier this year.
