Fraggle Rock is one of Jim Henson's works of genius... IMDB info

The show was sold all over the world and the core of it was essentially the same, however the Fraggles' point-of-contact with the real world (shown at the start and end of each episode) was tailored to each individual country using local actors - a clever trick to make it seem more home-grown. Here in the UK it was set in a lighthouse.

*sings for joy*

Dance your cares away *clapclap*
Worry's for another day
Let the music play *clapclap*
Down at Fraggle Rock!


Yay for Gobo, Goober, Mokey, Wembley and Red!!!

Hey, I'm a Fraggle Rock junkie! I've been hooked on them since I was but a toddler! I'm a bit annoyed that they released Gobo, Goober, Wembley and Red in big plushie form...but NO MOKEY!!! That's like kicking all the artistic people around the world in the tail-ends! *is obsessed, can't ya tell?*

Music grows in the rose
Rockin' rain in the blowing snowstorm
Everything seems to sing
Everywhere I go...

I say 1, 2, play me do
Let me sound as sweet as you
Play me wide, play me long
Let me be your song...


That is like, my favourite song of all-time from Jim Henson...probably because he sang it so well :D I love Cantus, the Travelling Musician - that is like the BEST episodes...bar the ones with Mokey and Red *nods*

...

And the Muppet Show!!!!

They've been selling the International Releases here in speciality stores like the Comic Centre I go to (German, French, etc) and trying to find the english ones is almost impossible. But now it's official! W00T!!!

Eee, Muppets Overdose!
Now all they need is Muppets Tonight and this will be my year :D
