What Time Will ‘Muppets Now’ Premiere on Disney+?

The moment Muppets fans have been waiting for is almost here! Muppets Now is the beloved franchise’s long-awaited return to the small screen—okay, the ABC sitcom The Muppets went off-air in 2016, but four years feels like a lifetime ago because, uh, you know. You lived through the last four years. Don’t they feel like 16 years? Anyway. We all miss the Muppets!

Muppets Now is a brand new TV series starring, duh, the Muppets! It’s up to a frantic Scooter to get the show up and running. His producer gig involves corralling all the Muppet egos and uploading all their last-minute segments to Disney+ for viewers to enjoy. Those segments include lifestyle tips from Miss Piggy, Bunsen and Beaker doing explosive experiments, a Swedish Chef cooking show, a madcap game show hosted by Pepe the King Prawn, an interview series conducted by Kermit, and many, many more!

Now that you know what Muppets Now is all about, you probably have one major question: when can you actually watch the show?

When does Muppets Now debut on Disney+?

Muppets Now will make its big Disney+ debut on Friday, July 31. The very first episode—featuring guest stars Taye Diggs, RuPaul, and Linda Cardellini—will be made available to stream on that day.

What time will Muppets Now debut on Disney+?

New episodes of Disney+ shows are added to the streaming service at around 3:01 a.m. ET / 12:01 a.m. PT. That means you can either stay up very late on Thursday night or get up very early on Friday morning if you just can’t wait to have new Muppet content in your life.

When are new episodes of Muppets Now added to Disney+?

Unlike shows on other streaming services, Disney+ likes to spread out its series on a weekly release schedule. That means that you’ll be able to stream episode 2 on Friday, August 7. New episodes will be added to Disney+ every Friday at 3:01 a.m. ET / 12:01 a.m. PT.

Is Muppets Now on Netflix?

Nope! If you want to watch the new Muppet show, you’re going to have to get a subscription to Disney+. That’s the only way to watch Muppets Now—but it’s far from the only Muppet content on the streaming service. With Disney+, you can stream The Muppet Movie, The Great Muppet Caper, The Muppet Christmas Carol, Muppet Treasure Island, The Muppets (both the 2011 movie and the 2015 TV show), Muppets Most Wanted, and the new Muppet Babies cartoon.

New episodes of Muppets Now will be added to Disney+ every Friday starting on July 31.
