The Disney+ streaming service has released the official trailer for Jim Henson Company’s upcoming unscripted new puppet show “Earth to Ned”.
The series features a blue-skinned alien commander named Ned, and his lieutenant Cornelius, who talk to numerous guests including RuPaul, Taye Diggs, Lil Rel Howery, Joel McHale, Eli Roth, Michael Ian Black, Rachel Bilson, Bindi and Robert Irwin, Gillian Jacobs, Thomas Lennon, Kristen Schaal, Raven Symone, and “The Mandalorian” actors Billy Dee Williams and Gina Carano among others.
In the half-hour comedic talk show, the aliens have called off the invasion of Earth after they fall in love with human culture. 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 series is scheduled to premiere on Friday, September 4th.
