Le Bébête Show was a puppet show which first aired on French television in 1983. A satirical blend mixing elements of The Muppet Show and Spitting Image, the series took French political figures and adapted them into characters from The Muppet Show. As the series aged, Muppet Show references became less frequent, with the puppets more politically charged and the politicians morphed into animalistic caricatures. The show was eventually eclipsed by another French show, Les Guignols De L'Info (The News Puppets), which borrowed heavily in its style from the British Spitting Image series, and it was cancelled in 1995.
