Artifact Overview

Jim Henson's The Muppet Show aired from 1976 to 1981. The show -- produced in England because American TV networks wrongly assumed that Muppets would appeal just to kids -- introduced millions to Henson's unique blend of humor and imagination. The Muppet Show would go on to air in more than 100 countries, win several Emmy awards, and lead to several spin-off motion pictures.
