Muppets Tonight
Muppets Tonight was a television series created by Jim Henson Productions and featuring the Muppets. The show was a continuation of The Muppet Show, set in a television studio, rather than a theatre.
The premise of Muppets Tonight was that Clifford - voiced by Kevin Clash - was the host of a variety/talk show on KMUP. The show stuck closely to the Muppet Show format of various skits (mostly featuring the show's human guest star) interspersed with some sort of crisis occurring backstage.
