WDW Radio # 723 – The Muppets in Walt Disney World That Never Were – From the WDW Radio Archives
With The Muppets Mayhem coming to Disney+, and having just watched Muppet Treasure Island on FunnelVision on the Disney Fantasy… and just my love of the Muppets and fond memories of growing up with The Muppet Show, this week we’re going to go back in time and take a look back at the relationship between Disney and the Muppets, including the story of how the Muppets came to Walt Disney World in a variety of ways.
Go back nearly 12 years to Show 251 – Join me from Disney’s Hollywood Studios as we tour the park and explore some of the secrets, stories and history of MuppetVision 3D, Muppet-based shows that are no longer here, the Disney-Henson marriage, as well as “The Muppets That Never Were.” Jim Korkis joins me as we wander the Studios and discuss some of the proposed concepts that never made it both in and out of the parks.
It’s a fascinating live tour of the Muppets in the present, as well as a look back in time, and possibly even into the future of the Muppets in Walt Disney World.
