新マペットショー (New Japanese Dub of The Muppet Show)

新マペットショー is the new Japanese dub of the Muppet Show. The original dub aired on TV Asahi. Only 15 Episodes were aired. Another channel was getting the idea of finishing the series. So production moved to the Tokyo Broadcasting System and it was dubbed by Tohokushinsha for most episodes, and Transglobal for some episodes. All episodes were dubbed and it was started in 1984. Much of the cast stayed on there. All of the songs were dubbed. It ran for 135 weeks, but it paused broadcasting sometimes for important events. It was on Sundays, just like the TV Asahi dub. It lasted until January 11th, 1987. It features some TBS announcers too. It broadcasted on 14 of the 25 JNN affiliates at the time.
