"That's the best laugh I've had since I dropped dead!"
"No dog is a pancake."
"There are no rules, and those are the rules."
"I fear I'm losing my implacable calm."
"Argument nothing, it's an attempted coup!"
"Wembley says he's sorry and Red laughs about it and Gobo says "let's...
I would've liked to see Cotterpin Doozer visit the Trash Heap.
Would it have been a bad idea to have 'romantic' themed episodes? I thought of one where Mokey reaches out to a semi-outcast Fraggle, who in turn becomes hopelessly smitten with her (to her dismay). She wants to tell him she...
In "The Gorg Who Would Be King", Doc & Sprocket observe a meteor shower. The 'meteor' they find is actually Junior's crown.

All right, I can't help but ask: what is BBB, and while you're at it, what is SWAEHB?
Bo looks creepy in your avatar- the red eyes and fangs. Took me a week to figure out who that was.
I know Terry Angus (Storyteller Fraggle, Morris Fraggle, Brio the Minstrel) is a member here, but I...
If you look at the original post date, you'll see I put this up on September 18th. Jerry Juhl passed away the following week.

I wonder if certain guest stars refused permission to be featured in the videos (hence some of the odd guest star choices in "Rock Music") or if there were issues with music rights.

Well, Karen Prell is KPrell, she's been very upfront about who she is.
There is a forum member called Twiddlebug, whose profile lists stats that are strikingly similar to Nelson's and who has provided insights and info that outsiders would not have access to, yet Twiddlebug has never come out...
We know what the main six puppeteers looked like, and "Down at Fraggle Rock" shows us some others, but there were so many characters and I'm just curious as to what their versatile performers looked like. Also, when you watch "Down at Fraggle Rock", you can see a lot of the performers but in my...
I liked how they used a lot of juxtaposition in Season One, to tie together the different characters in the different worlds- in "The Thirty-Minute Work Week", the Trash Heap, Wembley, the Fraggle firemen, and Doc all utilize the "start a fire" joke. In "I Don't Care", the whole first scene is...
I LOVED this script! It's full of great scenes and juxtapositions (a chief element of FR, drawing ties between the different characters and worlds, something that Jerry Juhl did LOTS of).
The Hall of Justice scene, the Trash Heap scene, Boober's "no deposit, no return" magic chant, Boober...
What?! That's crazy talk. IMO Dave Goelz's World's Oldest Fraggle was brilliant, as were Boober and Traveling Matt. Muppety greatness from a creative standpoint, and Muppety brilliance from an acting standpoint. Boober's vocabulary, TM's ego, WOF's abusiveness & condescension- great stuff...
We may be without Jerry Juhl, but isn't there still Jocelyn Stevenson and Susan Juhl and the other main hub of FR writers? Most of the FR writers are still living, with the exceptions of Jerry Juhl and Carol Bolt (Episode 15 "I Don't Care"). Suppose Jocelyn wrote the screenplay? I think we...
So the guest stars in this one would be:
(In best announcer voice):
Rudolf Nureyev, Sandy Duncan, Lola Falana, Charles Aznavour, Carol Burnett, and Gene Kelly!

He was also in the Roy Clark and Pearl Bailey episodes. I believe he voiced the lead singing fireman in the Roy Clark UK Spot.
He was also the lead Ragg Mopp in the Lena Horne episode and Andre the Artist in the Candice Bergen episode.

Why would they have to replace Doc? The original actor who played him in the U.S. & Canadian versions, Gerard Parkes, is still alive and acting.
