| - The Fantastic Miss Piggy Show was an 1982 prime time special starring Muppet Miss Piggy, it feautred the human guest stars, George Hamilton, John Ritter, and Tony Clifton (the alter-ego of Andy Kaufman).
- Under the direction of Kermit the Frog, the Muppets work in the studio control room and, amidst chaos, manage to keep the show on the air. Throughout the show, a romantic triangle develops among Miss Piggy, Ritter (who is smitten with the pig) and Hamilton (who is deeply uncomfortable with the star's romantic inclinations). Highlights include: As the program concludes, Miss Piggy throws a tantrum and walks off the show after arguing with the network vice president about whether her show is a special or the pilot for a series. She laments, "I'm too delicate for show business."
