		<p><img src="/images/m/muppetbabies.jpg" alt="Muppet Babies" />All of our favorite Muppets return to television as young children with overactive imaginations.  They transport themselves to strange or fictional lands, have wild adventures, and get in and out of trouble, without even leaving their nursery. They often relived portions of adventures from popular movies, such as Indiana Jones and Star Wars, taking up the roles among themselves.  The series began as a half-hour show, was expanded later to a full hour, and later 90 minutes as its popularity increased.</p>
