Oh man! We even had the vinyl soundtrack to this baby! Where they all sing songs from the show!
They don't make 'em like they used to.
Down at fraggle rock
Grab a fraggle, by the cock
Throw it in the air
Catch it by it's pubic hair
Bang on the grass
Shove a chain-saw up it's ass
Turn the power on
Where's the ****ing fraggle gone!
It's not going to be quite the same now that Disney ownes Jim Henson Productions.
I loved that series. I bet they do something crap like make it rendered 3D, or even worse, make it like Fraggle babies, or whatever that shit cartoon was called. The only true Fraggle Rock is one with puppets!
You're thinking of Muppet Babies. A concept that is still en vogue as there is a Looney Toons babies cartoon out and that makes Muppet Babies look like a work of genius.
Were fraggle babies in the Muppet babies one? I'm sure I've seen one with baby Fraggles, not Muppets.
More info can be found here but there is only a little mention about Fraggle babies.
I've just been looking on the net and there was an obscure series called "Little Muppet Monsters" but thats the only other baby muppet show and that had 18 episodes made and only 2 aired because it was so bad. AFAIK Fraggle babies didn't appear in Muppet Babies.
Just to whet the appitite go here for the US intro to Fraggle Rock (notice theres no lighthouse its Sprocket with an old geezer in a shed).
And here is the intro to the animated Fraggle Rock (which could what people are thinking of)

And even more on the strangeness front...

I would tell you what it is but that would ruin the surprise!!!
You know that Smurfette is a skanky whore don't you. She gets boned by all the other Smurfs whilst Papa Smurf watches in his Gimp outfit.
Muppet Babies was ace, you jerks :mad:
Ah! I completely forgot about this. In the US the Fraggle Rock episodes were all different to the UK originals. In the US they redid all of the lighthouse parts and replaced them with an old wood worker guy in a shed with Sprocket. And Uncle Traveling Matt was changed too!Quote:

How can they change Uncle Traveling Matt?? He had his own song and everything. And why change the lighthouse? They have lighthouses in the US. Must have been because Captain Birds Eye was Scottish and no realm exists outside their borders.
Fraggle Rock was a joint British (TVS), the Canadians (CBS) and the Americans (HBO). The two versions were done at the same time. The british version change it to the lighthouse keeper (Fulton McKay, John Gordon Sinclair and Simon O'Brian) and the British version of Uncle Travelling Matt so that it had more relevence to the British audience. The lighthouse was St Antony's Lighthouse near Falmouth.
And the French and German versions were also different. One of those was in a bakery.
I just don't think it works as well if it isn't in a lighthouse. The fact the light house is on Fraggle Rock works really well.
But the bakery would have 'Fraggle' Rock Cakes!
Wouildn't it be better to create Fraggle Rock Pies? You'd be able to have gravy with your diced Fraggle.Quote:

I can picture the pie now. Beutifull short crust pastry with Fraggle tails sticking out of the top filled with diced Fraggle and radishes with a luscious, rich gravy. It's not just any food. It's Gorg food.:EatDamand:
