"Someday we'll find it, that rainbow connection, the lovers, the dreamers and me" was sung by Kermit the Frog in the first of many films entitled The Muppet Movie. The Muppets have been a part of so many of our childhood memories.

Now, Disney announces a plan to bring the Muppets to a brand-new generation with a rebirth of "The Muppet Show." As some Muppet fans may remember, this concept first catapulted the Muppets into stardom.

Created by Jim Hesons in 1976 and airing through 1981, this variety show featuring Kermit the Frog and his gang quickly amassed a huge following, with the first full-length film, "The Muppet Movie," released in 1979.

One thing that "The Muppet Show" is known for is featuring popular Hollywood entertainers, and this tribute to "The Muppet Show" is no different. Disney just announced that Sabrina Carpenter will guest star.

A release date has not been given, but it is expected to stream in 2026.
