Warburtons - The Giant Crumpet Show
Warburtons - The Giant Crumpet Show
Warburtons is a bakery company established in England in 1876.
In November 2015, the Muppets appeared in a two-minute promo spot, advertising the company's new Giant Crumpets. In the ad, Kermit the Frog approaches company chairman Jonathan Warburton to propose a new ad campaign for the Giant Crumpet - "The Giant Crumpet Show." From a factory, the entire Muppet gang sings a variant of "The Muppet Show Theme," boasting about the new Giant Crumpets. In the end, Warburton approves of the idea, though Statler and Waldorf typically thumb it down. Kirk Thatcher and Declan Lowney directed the spot.

Notes[]
Goof: Link Hogthrob appears twice in the beginning of the song: in the second and back row (both in the same clothes).
Goof: Floyd Pepper appears twice in the big finale: in the front group (in a factory coat), then in the back row (in his normal clothes).
Note: Rizzo the Rat wears an army style outfit, a reference to Sylvester Stallone, the previous celebrity who promoted Warburtons bread.
- Peter Linz performs the rabbit who gets eaten by Big Mean Carl.
