That's the only thing that's going to save this planet - the power of imagination." Hank Saroyan, the series' voice director and story editor, talked about Jim Henson's vision of the series, "He wanted children to believe that anything is possible. Live-action cameo appearances included Whoopi Goldberg and Tom Selleck, amongst others. Most often this would be clips from movies in the public domain, but extensive use of other properties was also used from the likes of Star Wars and other popular movies, as well as Henson's own The Muppet Show, Sesame Street, and Labyrinth. The show's situations and humor relied heavily on incorporating footage from live action film and television productions.
Other new characters, and characters appearing in younger versions for the first time, include Baby Bunsen, Baby Beaker, tadpole Robin, Baby Bean Bunny, Janice, and slightly younger versions of Statler and Waldorf. With the exception of Skeeter and Animal, "baby" versions of the Muppets had previously appeared in The Muppets Take Manhattan in a dream sequence that inspired the series (a puppet version of Animal didn't appear until 1987 in A Muppet Family Christmas, and Skeeter was created for the show). The series features Baby Kermit, Baby Piggy, Baby Fozzie, Baby Gonzo, Baby Rowlf, Baby Scooter, Baby Skeeter, and Baby Animal under the care of Nanny, as they explore the vastness of their own imaginations. Muppet Babies is an animated series co-produced by Marvel Productions, which ran on CBS for seven years from 1984 to 1990, followed by a reboot in 2018 for Disney Junior.
