(LOS ANGELES) — The Pig’s out of the bag! The Muppets Studio announced its first original series for Disney+ on Wednesday, called Muppets Now. 

The series, which promises an overflowing of, “spontaneous lunacy, surprising guest stars and more frogs, pigs, bears (and whatevers) than legally allowed,” kicks off with the six-episode first season, which follows endlessly-beleaguered show producer Scooter navigating, “whatever obstacles, distractions, and complications the rest of the Muppet gang throws at him,” in an effort to upload the brand-new Muppet series for streaming. 

Muppets Now launches July 31.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News.
