Can anyone give me some more information about this? I have read that at one point, Muppet Babies was aired with something called "Little Muppet Monsters". What exactly is this? :confused:

Little Muppet Monsters aired immediately after Muppet Babies on CBS in the fall of 1986 (not sure on the year). The show featured three child Muppet monsters who hung out in someone's basement and performed skits. There was also an animated portion of the show starring the classic Muppets from TMS. Sadly, the show must've had horrible ratings because it was canceled by CBS after only a handful (two or three) of episodes aired.

My memory of this show is pretty fuzzy, so if anyone has more information please post it!!

The show aired in the fall of 1985. Three episodes aired, but 18 were produced. It's never seen the light of day since, not even on Odyssey which showed just about every Henson production available.

And as was said before a couple of minutes of the cartoon versions of Pigs in Space and Kermit PI were absorbed in the Muppet Babies episode "7 Flags over the Nursery"

Anyone have any of the 3 aired cartoons on tape?
