Hi, ho! It’s the Muppet Show!
It’s time to celebrate the felt-filled world of Jim Henson and talk Muppets! Since their creation in the 50’s, the Muppets have been gracing our screens with endless entertainment, gags, and heart felt warm fuzzies. The Muppets are more than just puppets; they’re cultural touchstones, comedic geniuses, life gurus, Hollywood celebrities, and surprisingly complex characters. So join Tuong La and Muppet Maniacs Victoria Luloff, Geoff McBride, and Jess Preece as they have a maniacal laugh while ranking Top 5 Muppets!
