The Muppet Show Season 2 slated for summer 2007 release Numerous issues have delayed the DVD box set, but release is expected during the summer of 2007 By
Greg James Fifteen months ago "The Muppet Show Season 1" was released on DVD, and ever since fans have been asking when they would be able to get their hands on season 2. Pinning down the release hasn't been simple for Disney. Originally it was slated for February, then bumped to a tentative slot in late summer and then inexplicably delayed again. Legal clearances, material creation/restoration, marketing schemes, leadership changes, production priority schedules -- the reasons are complex and numerous.
Brain Henson said earlier this year when IGN asked about the Muppet Show Season 2, that "Disney is so formulaic and careful and secretive about their DVD release plans" that even he didn't know when the set would be out. Back in July Muppets.com launched a poll to allow fans to vote on the cover art for the upcoming second season release. Just a few weeks ago the poll was taken down, and the fans' speculation started up again. What does it mean? Is it coming? Was it canceled? What's going on?
The set will be out in 2007 and season 3 is also expected for the future (although there are no details on timing).
