MUPPET BABIES - Beach Blanket Babies

Air Date/Released Saturday, December 12, 1987
Station/Studio CBS / The Jim Henson Co.

Spun-off from a scene in THE MUPPETS TAKE MANHATTAN (1984), the Muppet characters are babies in a nursery managed by Nanny (voice of Barbara Billingsley). Their imaginations lead to wild adventures, with lesson-based emphasis on teamwork, problem solving, and friendship.

Nanny offers to take the babies to the beach for swimming lessons. Fozzie is afraid of water, and hides it by telling the others that he’s afraid of crocodiles... leading to a daydream about three bear-eating crocs (Moe, Larry and Croco-Curly) who offer to teach him.


The series developer / writer of MUPPET BABIES was Jeffrey Scott [Maurer], Moe Howard's grandson.
