The Orson Welles Show

The Orson Welles Show is a 1979 pilot for a proposed talk show hosted by actor-writer-director Orson Welles. Welles interacts with Kermit, Fozzie, Gonzo, and Sam the Eagle in one segment of the pilot, and interviews Jim Henson and Frank Oz in a later segment.
The show was never aired, but it was screened in the fall of 2013 at a release event for Jim Henson: The Biography at the Museum of the Moving Image. Clips from the pilot later appeared in the 2024 documentary Jim Henson: Idea Man.
