NEW ORLEANS (WGNO)- After nearly 20 years, Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Gonzo, and the rest of the gang are now back on prime-time television. “The Muppets” premieres tonight on ABC.
News with a Twist Reporter Kenny Lopez grew up with the Muppets and wanted to see if there’s muppet mania with a younger generation. He headed Uptown to St. George’s Episcopal School to talk with a few Fourth Graders about the Muppets. These kids definitely weren’t shy about dishing out love advice to Kermit and Miss Piggy (who recently called it quits)! Rumors are swirling that Kermit is dating a new pig named, Denise.
