Last year, Disney announced the next instalment in “The Muppets” franchise called “Muppets Mayhem”, which is a new comedy series that follows The Electric Mayhem Band – Dr. Teeth on vocals and keyboards, Animal on drums, Floyd Pepper on vocals and bass, Janice on vocals and lead guitar, Zoot on saxophone and Lips on trumpet – on an epic, music-filled journey to record their first-ever studio album. With the help of a driven young music executive, Nora Gibbs, the old-school Muppet band comes face to face with the current day music scene as they try to finally go platinum.

The new series will star Lilly Singh (“A Little Late with Lilly Singh,” “Dollface”) and Tahj Mowry (“Smart Guy,” “Baby Daddy”).  Along with Saara Chaudry (“The Mysterious Benedict Society,” “Holly Hobbie”) and Anders Holm (“Workaholics,” “Inventing Anna”).

“The Muppets Mayhem” is developed by Adam F. Goldberg, Bill Barretta and Jeff Yorkes based on characters created by Jim Henson. It is written by Adam F. Goldberg (“The Goldbergs”), Bill Barretta (“The Muppets,” “Muppets Haunted Mansion”) and Jeff Yorkes, the executive producers are Goldberg, Barretta, Michael Bostick and Kris Eber. Yorkes is a co-executive producer. The Muppets Studio’s David Lightbody and Leigh Slaughter are also executive producers.  The Disney Branded Television series is produced by ABC Signature and The Muppets Studio for Disney+.

 

Recently, the shows creator, Adam F. Goldberg, who is also behind the hit comedy series, “The Goldbergs”, recently took to social media to reveal that filming on the show is now complete, and it’s due to arrive on Disney+ in early May.

Thank you! Muppets Mayhem will be out early May. Just finished the finale! So proud of this show.

We’ve not heard too much about this new series for a while, though the Muppets did take to the stage at the D23 Expo to get fans excited for the new show.    Disney hasn’t officially announced a release date for the show, but hopefully, it won’t be too long until we find out an official date.
