Muppet Magazine was a full-color quarterly publication that was launched in January 1983, shortly after the last Muppet Fan Club Newsletter had been distributed. From 1983 to 1989, each issue featured celebrity guests who were interviewed and photographed especially for the magazine. Other features included regular columns ostensibly written by Muppet characters, parody photographs of the Muppets as then-current pop culture figures, and original comic stories. The latter ranged from tales of The Muppet Show characters to original Fraggle Rock and Muppet Babies comics.
Recurring columns
- Editorial -- written by Kermit the Frog
- The Muppet Mailbag -- hosted by Fozzie Bear
- Floyd's Record Rap -- Floyd's column covers reviews of popular albums
- Zoot's Salute -- Sidebar by Zoot featuring musicians
- Coming Attractions -- movie reviews by Statler and Waldorf
- Movies, TV, and Home Videos to watch for -- hosted by Janice
- Rowlf on Books -- Rowlf's book reviews and recommendations
- Ask Dr. Honeydew / A Muppet Lab Special Report -- musings from Muppet Labs written and illustrated by Fred Newman
- Mondo Muppet -- "Spanning the Globe in Search of Whatever We Can Find" ... also features the recurring "Rarely Sighted Muppets" sidebar
- We Interupt This Magazine -- a comic book style photo version of Muppet News Flash
- Miss Piggy's Advice -- Miss Piggy's "Dear Abby"-esque advice column (as told to Louise Gikow)
