The Muppets aren't quite back yet, but the Jim Henson Company is working on creating a new shot for the BBC.
According to Variety, the British Broadcasting Corporation has ordered a pilot for the new show No Strings Attached. The show is a a weekend show that will have a new puppet interviewing celebrities.
The company best known for The Muppets will be creating the new puppets with the BBC producing the show. If the show gets the greenlight, it could premiere next year on BBC1.
Karl Warner, BBC's executive editor for entertainment recently said "The Muppets were a massive phenomenon and nobody seems to have been developing anything in this area for a long time. The Henson Co, has shown us some puppets, and their versatility is very exciting, but we are still only in talks at the moment."
The character hosting the show will be someone completely new and outside of the world of the Muppets. Disney has the rights to the Muppets and is currently working on a sequel to the film with director James Bobin and writer Nicholas Stoller.
