It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie was also produced by the network, and the movie featured a few direct references to NBC and its shows (notably Scrubs and Fear Factor). In addition, the NBC chimes are heard and the network logo briefly appears on the bottom of Kermit's foot in a gag about corperate synergy.
The Muppets have appeared on many NBC network shows and specials, including the following: The Tonight Show, The Today Show, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, The Jack Paar Program, The Perry Como Winter Show, The Torkelsons, The Cosby Show, The West Wing, NBC's Funniest Outtakes 2, America's Got Talent, Deal or No Deal, NBC Salutes the 25th Anniversary of the Wonderful World of Disney, The Television Academy Hall of Fame, and Happy Birthday, Bob.
Additionally, the Muppets have referenced or been referenced on many NBC shows, including Seinfeld, Friends, Law & Order, ALF, Flipper, Dragnet, My Name is Earl, 30 Rock, and The Office.
