The Muppets (Germany)

The Muppets, without title translation, is the German dub of The Muppets. Dubbed in the spring of 2016,Blog of voice actress Marieke Offinger, listing assignments from March 2016 the series debuted on German network ProSieben on December 3, 2016.
Two different promotional clips of Kermit and Miss Piggy aired regularly on the family of networks during the month of December 2016, announcing the series' run on ProSieben in English (performed by Steve Whitmire and Eric Jacobson, respectively). As with the original US broadcasts, two half hour episodes were aired back to back.
The show featured two of the characters' original voice artists from Die Muppet Show, Christina Hoeltel as Scooter and Donald Arthur as Uncle Deadly (who died that September, a few months after recording).
As is common practice with Disney productions, a small amount of visual localization took place when adapting the series for German audiences, changing select on-screen text, as demonstrated with the following examples:
