Since April 2004, the Muppets had been re-introduced to the public by way of low-key marketing and guest appearances on such shows as Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, Good Morning America and Saturday Night Live in hopes for a successful turn in the ratings by the time the new telefilm hit the air. At the time, the Jim Henson Company was consulting with Disney and developing new Muppet series and movies under a three-year production deal. The film marked the first major project after the acquisition of the Muppets property by The Walt Disney Company, although the project had already been in development with ABC.
