The OTHER Muppet Babies
Phoenix Alvarado – In 1984, the Muppets took Manhattan and during their time there Miss Piggy had a dream where the six main Muppets were shown as babies. These would be known to Muppet fans everywhere as the Muppet Babies. Originally just Kermit, Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, Rowlf, and Scooter the Muppet Babies when they got their own television show. The cast expansion would include infant versions of Animal, Bunsen Honeydew, Beaker, Robin (as tadpole of course), Camilla (in the form of Gonzo’s stuffed chicken), and Scooter’s twin sister, Skeeter. Through the shows eight year run a couple other babies were added such as Bean Bunny, Janice, and even a baby version of The Muppet Show’s backstage theater cat, Gaffer. But what about the other Muppets out there that was never presented on the show? What do they look like? Would a baby version of Dr. Teeth have a any teeth?
