That leads us to a new series we're calling "Never Made Muppets" where we look at items that were announced, previewed or many just been ideas, but for one reason or another have not been released.
Let's begin with the grand daddy of all announced items that have yet to see the light of day: The Muppet Show - Season 4 on DVD!
After the first three season of The Muppet Show were released in 2005, 2007, and 2008 respectively fans were eager to get the next two seasons to finish off their collections.
There was no official word on season 4 until the first D23 Expo in 2009. Disney Consumer Products released temp cover art, with Gonzo used over the season 2 box, to illustrate what the upcoming set would potentially look like.
After that radio silence on the subject from any official channels until 2001. At which time Walter pleaded with Disney to release the set during promotion for The Muppets.
Our friends at The Muppet Mindset wrote an open letter to Disney in 2012, and yet here it is, 2014. five years since it was first announce, four years since it was originally to be released
and and three years since a Muppet asked for it in an official Disney promotional material!
Numerous fans have started petitions pleading Disney to release the two remaining seasons including Change.org, and Facebook.
You can contact Disney directly at http://www.disneystudioshelp.com/Contact_Us.html to let them know how much you still want it!
Here's hoping another year won't come and go with out it!
