The website provides fans with news releases, an active discussion forum, a collectibles guide, articles, episode guides, and a Muppet-themed online radio station. Muppet Central Radio is a live Internet radio station that broadcasts 24-hours a day. The extensive song database includes more than 3,000 songs. The service is provided by Radionomy (formerly Live365 Radio). Songs are broadcast in accordance with the legal requirements of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, and with permission from The Muppets Studios, Jim Henson Company and Sesame Workshop. The radio station won a 2005 Live365 Award for "Best Guilty Pleasure" station.

Henson employees who are members (or were members) include Jerry Juhl, Jerry Nelson, Karen Prell, Terry Angus, Steve Whitmire, Jim Lewis, Mike Quinn and Michael Earl. Other employees have also posted anonymously. In addition to these people, some people who have worked for various companies releasing Muppet merchandise have also been members, such as the people working for Palisades Toys and USAopoly. Some of the extra performers from the finale of The Muppet Movie are also members, and have started threads about their experience working on the movie. The site has a team of contributing staff members; including Phillip Chapman (webmaster), James V. Carroll (multimedia design), D. W. McKim (episode guides), Greg James (news and reviews), Ken Plume (interviews), and Chris Smigliano (fan art).
