old t.v. show name??
o.k. they are making a new show about puppets, and i was telling my husband about this show i use to watch, he has no idea what i am talking about so help me find the name of it so i can find a site about it so he can see.
there is a single man who works for a t.v. station.
he finds aliens that are puppets(or look like puppets to us)
he passes them off as puppets.
he does a puppet show on t.v. as his job now with these aliens
the show does well concidering they are aliens not puppets
he has to hide the fact that they are aliens.
it would have been in the 90's i would think, late 80's at the oldest.
thanx in advance for any help!

well i did watch a.l.f. and fraggle rock but no, this is a newer show than those, and it was not a kid show, it was on prime time. i believe the alien puppets were humanoid, not animals or anything weird.

This is the closest thing I have found so far Is this it?
Johnny Jupiter - Alien puppet character from the planet Jupiter who communicated with Earth via interplanetary television transmissions on the JOHNNY JUPITER/DUM/1953-54. His earthly contact is Ernest P. Duckweather, a janitor of a TV station (later a store clerk), who accidentally picked up Jupiter's wavelength when tinkering with a television console. Johnny had a head shaped like a peanut with a small antenna sprouting from the top of his noggin. Speaking with a British accent, Johnny eavesdropped on the planet Earth by monitoring Earth's television broadcasts. He questioned our strange habits and customs. Commenting on television, Johnny informed us that on Jupiter television was used for punishing children when they spent too much time reading books or playing with slide rules. Other alien puppets that talked with Earth included B-12, Major Domo, and Reject the Robot. The series was a satire of Earth as seen through the eyes of the alien, Johnny Jupiter. The hand puppets were animated by Carl Harms. The role of E. P. Duckweather was played by Vaughn Taylor and Wright King.
