Happy Birthday, Jim Henson!

Happy Jim Henson Day! Today Jim would have turned 84.

Check out this clip of Jim Henson, Dr. Teeth and Kermit promoting The Muppet Show: Sex and Violence on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.

That was before The Muppet Show itself was even in production. Back when all the major US broadcast networks passed on the series, before The Muppet Movie and the "Rainbow Connection."

So, while last year's big series The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance will now be a one season wonder, there is so much other Henson stuff happening.

Fraggle Rock: Rock On spurned an upcoming series reboot, The hilarious Earth to Ned recently premiered, as did Elmo's Not So Late Talk Show and Muppets Now. Sesame Street is gearing up for it's 51st season and last year became the first TV show to ever receive a Kennedy Center Honor, while next year's The Storyteller: The Seven Ravens aims to be Henson's first virtual reality production.

And while the world may be in dark place currently, we have to remember to "Keep believing, keep pretending..." because together we can "Turn the World Around."

We miss you, Jim!
