Die Muppets in Hollywood

Die Muppets in Hollywood is the German dub of The Muppets Go Hollywood.

It aired only once, on September 11, 1979, on ZDF. It was never released on home video.

During its introduction, an unseen voice over host announces the special to be in celebration of Die Muppet Show airing its 50th episode on ZDF. In Dick Van Dyke's interview with Kermit, the frog later once more mentions the airing of their 50th episode anniversary on ZDF the following day, while van Dyke points out the production of their first feature film. Muppet Movie would premiere in German speaking countries the following year.

Assorted scenes are cut from the original edit of the special, including van Dyke's encounter with Sam the Eagle, Fozzie's on-location interview, Gary Owens' introduction to "Baby Face," the "You Oughta Be in Pictures" performance, and the entire segment of Paul Williams and Kenneth Ascher discussing the music of The Muppet Movie. To fill the time, select musical numbers from Die Muppet Show (including "In a Little Spanish Town," "Java," and "Mah Na Mah Na") are spliced in at various points. The closing credits are also re-edited and shown over the Miss Piggy photo montage used during the cut "You Oughta Be in Pictures" song.
