Kermit, Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, Animal, and their playroom friends get a fresh coat of paint in this 2022 reboot of the Muppet nursery classic.
What is Muppet Babies about?
Set entirely inside a colorful daycare playroom, the series follows a preschool-age Kermit the Frog and his friends as ordinary toys and cardboard boxes turn into rocket ships, pirate ships, and enchanted forests the moment imagination takes over. Miss Nanny watches over the group while newcomer Summer Penguin joins the familiar cast for daily games that double as gentle lessons about sharing, teamwork, and working through disagreements. Each half-hour episode is built around a simple premise — a lost toy, a rainy afternoon, a backyard adventure gone sideways — that the group solves together, usually by inventing an entire make-believe world out of whatever is lying around the room.
About the cast
The voice ensemble includes Jenny Slate, Dee Bradley Baker, Eric Bauza, Matt Danner, Jessica DiCicco, Ben Diskin, and Melanie Harrison, a lineup with deep roots in American animated television. Their work leans into big, exaggerated expression suited to preschool viewers, keeping every character's voice instantly recognizable even during the show's busiest imaginary set pieces.
Context & significance
Muppet Babies revives a concept that first ran decades earlier, reworked here with brighter, contemporary animation and a cast of characters built for a younger audience than the original puppet-driven Muppet Show. The 2022 season keeps the daycare setting and the toy-box imagination games that made the format recognizable, while folding in newer characters like Summer Penguin. It sits in the Animation, Comedy, Family, and Kids categories, produced in the United States for an audience of preschoolers and their families.
