Split into The Muppet Movie, the fictional character Cookie Monster and The Muppets (franchise). Even if the Muppet Movie references are enough to keep this page, there is no reason why The Muppet Movie should redirect to Muppet.

Talk about it here.

The Muppets were puppet characters popular on 20th and 21st century Earth. They featured in a television series called The Muppet Show in the 1970s, (PROSE: Incongruous Details) and later in a feature film, The Muppet Movie, in 1979, a particular favourite of the Tenth Doctor's. (TV: Tooth and Claw)

The Sixth Doctor always liked Gonzo, and agreed that The Muppet Show was an indisputable classic. (PROSE: Incongruous Details) The Seventh Doctor once commented that if Ellen Woodworth didn't want to abandon her responsibilities and make people happy, she must have hated The Muppet Movie. (PROSE: Return of the Living Dad) The Ninth Doctor told Rose Tyler that Cookie Monster was an alien. (PROSE: Winner Takes All) Later, excited about visiting 1979, the Tenth Doctor mentioned to Rose Tyler that, among other great events of that year, The Muppet Movie had debuted. (TV: Tooth and Claw) Donna Noble was also a Muppet fan; she had a doll of the Bear in the Big Blue House character Tutter on her desk at H.C. Clements. (TV: The Runaway Bride)

Inangela Marrero watched an episode of The Muppet Show eerily similar to the events of Animal Farm and a special guest who looked quite a lot like George Orwell, confusing the episode and person as such. Valentine Bregman later watches the same episode and realises that Orwell couldn't be on a 70s programme, and it takes him a few seconds to realise it's just a striking likeness. (PROSE: This Town Will Never Let Us Go)

The Twelfth Doctor, in "The Monster at the End of This Podcast", described Petra's prominent red hair as moving "Muppet-like". (AUDIO: Dead Media)
