    Not The Muppets, but a new Jim Henson Co. show which looks incredibly
    stupid ... and is really just a knock-off of the old A.L.F. talk show.

    From The Jim Henson Company comes a brand new talk show hosted by
    alien commander Ned and his lieutenant Cornelius, who call off the
    invasion of Earth after they fall in love with human culture.
    Broadcasting from the bridge of their spaceship, hidden deep
    underground, Ned and Cornelius interview Earth's greatest resource,
    celebrities. With the help of the ship's artificial intelligence,
    BETI, and the destructive CLODs (Cloned Living Organisms of
    Destruction), Ned must keep his show a secret from his home planet
    or suffer the wrath of his father, the Admiral of the Galactic
    Fleet. 

    The full guest lineup includes: Joshua Bassett (High School Musical:
    The Musical: The Series), Rachel Bilson (The O.C.), Michael Ian
    Black (Wet Hot American Summer), Rachel Bloom (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend),
    Gina Carano (The Mandalorian), RuPaul (RuPaul's Drag Race), Taye
    Diggs (Rent), Lil Rel Howery (Get Out), Bindi and Robert Irwin
    (Crikey! It's the Irwins), Gillian Jacobs (Love), NeNe Leakes (The
    Real Housewives of Atlanta), Thomas Lennon (Reno 911!), Joel McHale
    (Community), Andy Richter (Conan), Olivia Rodrigo (High School
    Musical: The Musical: The Series), Eli Roth (Hostel), Kristen Schaal
    (Gravity Falls), Paul Scheer (The League), Jenny Slate (Zootopia),
    Raven Symone (Raven's Home), Reggie Watts (The Late Late Show with
    James Corden), and Billy Dee Williams (Star Wars: The Empire Strikes
    Back).

    Each episode of Earth to Ned focuses on a topic or theme that is both
    equally unique to earthlings and fascinating to Ned, including comedy,
    sports, social media, and fashion. Ned beams in celebrity guests from
    across the known universe to put on the ultimate chat show, and the
    more he learns about our human culture, the more obsessed he becomes.

    Earth to Ned is brought to life by Jim Henson's Creature Shop, who has
    recently worked on the characters of Netflix's Dark Crystal: The Age
    of Resistance. It is executive produced by Jim Henson Co. chairman
    Brian Henson and Vince Raisa, who is the head of development and
    production of Jim Henson Co. The series will also be produced by
    Marwar Junction Productions with Joseph Freed and Allison Berkley
    serving as executive producers.

    Disney's streaming service is the exclusive home in the U.S. for
    subscription-video-on-demand viewing of the newest live-action and
    animated series and movies from Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, Marvel and
    Fox. The service is ad-free, supported solely by subscription fees,
    and is available on gaming consoles, smart TVs, and connected
