Animated
Fraggle Rock Videos (1987, UK)
The
often despised Fraggle Rock animated series was released onto video in
the United Kingdom but not in the United States. It's not known what other
countries may have had the honor of purchasing or renting these classics.
As to why
a Fraggle Rock cartoon was ever made, well it was most likely riding on
the success of the Muppet Babies cartoon. One can wonder what the point
of watching cartoon versions of puppets was supposed to be. It sort of
defeats the purpose of them being puppets at all if they're done in cartoon
form. The Fraggle Rock series may not have died after 13 episodes had
it been more thought out and cared after. It could have been decent but
many would say it's best to be forgotten. Die hard fans may have found
it a way to soften the blow of the cancellation of the HBO series.
On
the tape with Red Fraggle's face, the following animated episodes were
included: "Homebody Matt", "Laundry Never Lies", "Mokey's
Flood Of Creativity" and "Where No Fraggle Has Gone Before".
On the tape
with Mokey Fraggle's face the following animated episodes were included:
"Best Of The Best", "Ambassador Gorg", "The Funniest
Joke In The Universe" and "Red's Drippy Dilemma".
The
cover featuring Gobo and Red included: "The Great Fraggle Freeze
- Part 1", "The Great Fraggle Freeze - Part 2", "What
The Doozers Did", and "Fraggle Fool's Day".
So far, it's
not known if tapes featuring the other 3 main Fraggles exist. Gobo's face
is patterned throughout the background of the Red Fraggle tape.
