The B.B. Beegle Show

The B.B. Beegle Show was a pilot for a proposed television series; it was broadcast in January 1980, but no series followed. Produced by Joseph Barbera, this show was intended to be Hanna-Barbera's version of The Muppet Show, with a cast of puppet characters and appearances by human guest-stars; Joyce DeWitt and Arte Johnson appeared in the pilot. Michael Bell provided the voice of B.B. Beegle, the show's emcee.
