New Script Announcement

Any of you familiar with The Animal Show with Stinky and Jake? In case you're not, I'll tell you. The Animal Show was a Muppet show that ran from 1994 to 1998, and was a talk show hosted by a wise polar bear named Jake and a childlike skunk named Stinky.

Each episode would feature two animal guest stars that would share something is common. For example, an owl and an octopus appear in one episode because they have great eyesight. As well as Stinky, Jake, and the numerous guest stars, other characters on The Animal Show include Bunnie Bear, Jake's cousin who serves as a foil to the pessimistic chickenhawk Armstrong....

Tizzy, a CGI honeybee who hosts a quiz twice per episode...

And Yves St. La Roche, who is best described as The Swedish Chef as a cockroach. Unlike the Swedish Chef, however, Yves can actually talk.

Every episode from seasons 1 and 2 have been uploaded onto The Jim Henson Company's YouTube family channel, which will be provided in the link below.

Anyway, I decided to tell you about The Animal Show because I decided to do a reboot season of The Animal Show featuring new animals that have not been featured on the show, such as a poison dart frog, ptarmigan, platypus, and tuatara. For new characters, I'll once again have Emmy Pflugh design them. This reboot season will have 22 episode scripts, but halfway through, I'll take a break to work on another Pokémon project.

The first episode, Chameleon and Flounder, will be uploaded January 4th.
