The Muppets

The Muppets, often branded as Disney's The Muppets, are a group of puppet characters created by Jim Henson starting in 1954–55, which have also become the namesake for the Walt Disney Company media franchise that encompasses films, television series, discography, print publications and other media associated with the The Muppet Show characters. Although the term "Muppet" is often used to refer to any puppet that resembles the distinctive style of The Muppet Show, the term is both a formal name and legal trademark owned by the Walt Disney Company in reference to the original characters created by Henson. more »
