there is a lot of fun meta jokes in the secrets of the muppets episode of the jim henson hour but this is probably my favorite one. jim is just so nonchalant about it
#the muppets#muppets#the jim henson hour#jim henson#there is a chunk of this episode dedicated to getting the perfect dog to make a muppet of#and then they had to go to london and get a new dog#later jojo says “that was the english me!!” when the british dog starts barking at a puppet

Here are my headcanons for if the welcome home characters joined the muppets when the muppet show started since welcome home was taken off of platforms!
☆□•-------------------•□☆
(In this au there won't be any dark or horror stuff bc this will be if welcome home wasn't a horror thing and was an actual show so if you want horror this isn't a horror au.)
[That means home and the others are normal and the show isn't dark]
☆□•-------------------•□☆
-
In the mid-70s, when The Muppet Show was being made, the company that owned welcome home decided to make a deal with Jim Henson to where he gets to own the characters and officially use them in any muppet related stuff because of the downfall of welcome. Jim Henson accepted the offer and got the rights to the welcome Home series.
Jim updated all the welcome home puppets a little (just small tweaks and some updated outifts.) to make them look newer and better quality.
They then were added into The Muppet Show, and the characters appear in the theme songs and multiple episodes.
They added some skits for the characters (example: Eddie trying to deliver mail, but all the muppet dogs chase him away).
Most of the Welcome Wome characters acted the same as they did in Welcome Home except for Wally. Wally was made to be a little less childish (he still acted childish at times), and he flirted with some of the women on the show and liked getting kisses from them.
The WH characters acted a little more mature than they did in the show and would make a few adult jokes.
They would appear in:
All seasons of The Muppet Show.
Background cameos in the 1979 muppet movie.
The great muppet caper (as happiness hotel workers)
Some other muppet movies (as background characters or they get small lines)
Muppets (2011) (with small talking lines and in the Muppet Telethon scene) (Howdy would be a part of the barbershop quartet in the barbershop scene)
Muppets Most wanted (Wally would get a few lines, and the others would get background appearances)
The Jim Henson Hour (They would be in some of the skits or in the background)
Muppets Tonight (Wally would appear in the Paula Abdul episode where he would get a kiss from her, and Clifford would get angry at Wally)
Muppets 2015 series (All the WH characters would be in it and get a good amount of screen time)
Muppets Mayhem (Eddie and Sally would get a small appearance in an episode)
☆□•-------------------•□☆
Wally would be more of a main character in the muppets.
Welcome Home would have reruns every year on its birthday month on the Disney Channel.
Some of the characters would have also appeared on talk shows.
☆□•-------------------•□☆
Anyways that's it for now! If you wanna make fanart of this au or if you have any questions, feel free to do so!!(Just pls tag me)🌟

Some old Digit fanart. Here’s the description I wrote for Insta in 2019,
“Digit: The coolest Muppet, from The Jim Henson Hour. He didn't really show up much afterward. I keep seeing this lore that says he “he merged with the internet when the show was cancelled” or something but I can’t cite that. If anyone knows where that info comes from, let me know.
He really has a great design. I was inspired to draw this by @defunctland great video on Jim Henson.”
