CityKids (1993)

Set somewhere in New York, this series follows a group of young urbanites as they deal with typical, everyday, adolescent problems to which they must find the solutions. However, what separates this from other, like-minded shows is not only that, but it also features cutaways and side moments with some original Muppet characters. This is a fresh take, as they're solved in a different light and although the teens and the Muppet characters never meet with each other, the Muppet characters are still involved somehow, at least from afar.
