Pregnant Miss Piggy censored in US

Recommended Posts

Your thread title is misleading. This wasn't censored in the US. It was never intended for the US market to begin with.

The Muppet Show had two slightly different versions to make up a two minute difference between the amount of time allotted for commercials in the US versus UK. The UK versions being the longer of the two. This, and other segments like it filling those two extra minutes, where known as the UK Spots. They usually were UK music hall style bits, such as this one, or backstage bits.

This is getting close to SC. Glad I'm not a mod.;)

Whats the attitude in the rest of the world UK, germany etc towards abortion.?

I wouldn't be surprised if miss piggie lost (killed) her little piggie in the US TV Mkt. Some sponsors would bail. It's a hot political issue in the US.

I thought the muppets was a kids show:|



You've been confused. Probably by Sesame Street. Pretty common really.

The material performed by The Muppets spans all age groups and to the chagrin of some in their current parent company some of the historical stuff is definitely not "for kids."

Oh, and NSFW, as if the login req't didn't already make that point.
