60 Minutes is a news program that has run on CBS since September 24, 1968.

On March 17, 1979, the program featured a behind-the-scenes report on The Muppet Show, hosted by Morley Safer. Interviews were conducted with Jim Henson, Richard Hunt and Frank Oz, with Jerry Nelson, Dave Goelz and several Muppet characters. Footage was shown from the filming of the Raquel Welch episode, including rehearsal time and alternate scene takes.

The report was rebroadcast in 1990 shortly after Jim Henson's death with a new introduction by Safer, in which he cited that The Muppet Show was "the most popular broadcast in the history of television."

This program was spoofed in the Dinosaurs episode "Scent of a Reptile" as "60,000,000 Minutes."
