Yeah but Disney owns the Muppets, so TV Land would probably have to go to great lengths to air the Muppet Show.

What does TV Land showing That 70's Show have to do with them showing The Muppet Show? Those are two very different shows owned by two different companies. While I agree that I think TV Land would be a perfect place for TMS to call home, I just don't see Disney giving up rights to show it to a station that they don't own. It just seems highly unlikely. :smirk:

I don't know? I mean I could see them airing this show. Plus people, it's the television rights to air the program an not the character rights to own the Muppets. I mean they still let Pizza Hut air and produce new commercials. But I do know how stingy cooperations are with their property's these days.:stick_out_tongue: I'd say we have 50% chance.

Disney (with the Muppets) and Paramount/Viacom (Tv Land)... I cant see it happening either.
