'''''Muppet TV''''' is the new [[France|French]] ''[[Muppet Show]]'' series, which first broadcast over TF1 on October 29, [[2006]]. In contrast to the earlier ''[[Le Muppet Show]]'' (the title also used for the pilot), the series features new footage of the Muppets interacting with French celebrities rather than a re-dub of the original.

'''''Muppets TV''''' was a [[France|French]] ''[[The Muppet Show|Muppet Show]]'' series, which first broadcast over TF1 on October 29, [[2006]] and aired its last episode on December 31 of the same year.
The series springs from a [[2005]] deal which controversial French radio comedian/producer [[Sébastien Cauet]] and French network TF1 made with [[the Walt Disney Company]]. The actual puppets were sent to France, and Cauet supplied the voice of [[Kermit]] (using a blend of French Kermit [[Roger Carel]]'s voice and [[Jim Henson]]'s characterization). Other of Cauet's radio colleagues supplied character voices, while French puppeteers, led by [[Yves Brunier]], supplied the actual puppetry.

The 15 minute pilot debuted over TF1 in November, [[2005]], with French actor/humorist [[Franck Dubosc]] as the featured guest. Segments included a parody of the French TV series ''Mon Incroyable Fiancé'' (retitled ''Mon Incroyable Muppet'') and [[Miss Piggy]], ever sensual, pursuing guest star Dubosc. The show was set on a talk show stage, rather than a run-down [[The Muppet Theater|theater]].

The full series airs each Sunday as a 45 minute block, and in 5 minute segments Monday through Friday, taken from the best sketches and bits. In contrast to ''The Muppet Show'', and more in keeping with ''[[Muppets Tonight]]'', each episode features two guest stars. The series also makes extensive use of the established Muppet cast. The primary cast, as indicated by press materials for the series, goes beyond Kermit, Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, and [[Statler and Waldorf]]. Featured "classic" Muppets will also include [[Scooter]], [[Rowlf]], [[Dr. Bunsen Honeydew]] and [[Beaker]], the full ensemble of [[Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem]], [[the Swedish Chef]], and [[the Newsman]], as well as Denise, a new character recycled from the [[Loni Dunne]] puppet.

Muppets TV was a French Muppet Show series, which first broadcast over TF1 on October 29, 2006 and aired its last episode on December 31 of the same year.

In contrast to the earlier Le Muppet Show (the title also used for the pilot), the series featured new footage of the Muppets interacting with French celebrities rather than a re-dub of existing footage.

The series sprung from a 2005 deal which French radio comedian/producer Sébastien Cauet and French network TF1 made with the Walt Disney Company. The actual puppets were sent to France, and Cauet supplied the voice of Kermit (using a blend of French Kermit Roger Carel's voice and Jim Henson's characterization). Other of Cauet's radio colleagues supplied character voices, while French puppeteers, led by Yves Brunier, supplied the actual puppetry.

The 15 minute pilot debuted over TF1 in November, 2005, with French actor/humorist Franck Dubosc as the featured guest. Segments included a parody of the French TV series Mon Incroyable Fiancé (retitled Mon Incroyable Muppet) and Miss Piggy, ever sensual, pursuing guest star Dubosc. The show was set on a talk show stage, rather than a run-down theater.

The full series aired Sundays at 5:30pm as a 45 minute block, and in 5 minute segments Monday through Friday, taken from the best sketches and bits. In contrast to The Muppet Show, and more in keeping with Muppets Tonight, each episode featured two guest stars.

The series also made extensive use of the established Muppet cast. The primary cast went beyond Kermit, Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, and Statler and Waldorf and featured "classic" Muppets including Scooter, Rowlf, Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and Beaker, the full ensemble of Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem, the Swedish Chef, Clifford and the Newsman, as well as Denise, a new character recycled from the Loni Dunne puppet, and several other Whatnots.

10 full 45-minute episodes were produced in 2006 for the first batch of shows. However due to station management changes and poor ratings, TF1 opted not to order a second set of Muppets TV episodes.
