Learn your Muppet history! This is material you won't see anywhere else: early TV appearances, commercials, guest spots on The Dick Cavett Show, plus the rarely-seen pilot for The Muppet Show called "The Muppets: Sex and Violence".

With live commentary by The Jim Henson Legacy historian and writer Craig Shemin, who also curated this special program, Muppet History 101 is an extraordinary insight into the formative years of the show that came to redefine kids television before making the leap to prime time.
