The Magical World of Disney was the 1988-1990 incarnation of the long-running Disney anthology TV series (which debuted as Disneyland in 1954). Shifting focus from the original series hosted by Walt Disney to a package of made for TV specials and movies, the new series was hosted by Michael Eisner, occasionally interacting with cast or characters from that night's program (including the Muppets). Miss Piggy and Gonzo also appeared in Disneyland's 35th Anniversary Celebration, a special commemorating the Disneyland theme park's anniversary, which aired on February 4, 1990.
