Divas going at it on the set, 'Housewives' style.
Desperate Housewives is an ABC television series which premiered in 2004, starring Teri Hatcher, Eva Longoria, Marcia Cross and Felicity Huffman.
Miss Piggy was slated to appear in a bonus feature on the Desperate Housewives: The Complete Fifth Season box set, "Miss Piggy Takes Wisteria Lane," due out in September 2009. Plans were changed, however, and scenes were shot with Piggy and Pepe interviewing Eva Longoria Parker in April 2010. The interviews were released on the Desperate Housewives: The Complete Sixth Season box set, released September 21, 2010.
On November 13, 2011, a promo for the following episode, serving also as a teaser for The Muppets (2011), showed Vanessa Williams fighting with Miss Piggy over Kermit the Frog, on the Desperate Housewives set.
References
- In a 2005 episode of Sesame Street, Stinky and a female plant (recycled from Stuckweed) are desperate for sunlight and water, until the scantily dressed gardener arrives to care for them. According to the announcer, Desperate Houseplants airs on the Bloom Network.
- During promotion for The Muppets' Wizard of Oz, ABC featured a commercial with Scarecrow Kermit walking down the yellow brick road. At a crossroads, Kermit contemplated visiting Wisteria Lane, the street on which the Desperate Housewives women live, until a menacing voiceover from Miss Piggy set him down the path to the Emerald City.
- "The Horse Channel" as seen in Elmo's World: Horses, made mention of a show called "Desperate Horsewives."
- Muppet Celebrity T-shirts spoofing the show were designed by Eva Longoria and Teri Hatcher.
