Actually I don't think said Frackle was redesigned; several new Frackles were built in Season Five and that was one of them. The original one was green and stripy and had a tail; the fifth season one was blue with green hair and long claws. As to the latter Frackle's appearances, add the...
I think I only heard one person ever confuse Fraggle and Frackle around here. Don't worry, you're among the hardcore fans who know the difference.

Boy oh boy!
Ken, I gotta hand it to you once again.
First Koozebane Kermit, then the great turnaround from proto to final on Series 3, then the Swedish Kitchen, my reaction to which included having to restrain myself from promising you my firstborn child, then the Jim Henson Muppet, then the...
It seems appropriate that I should field this question.
I don't know when Gorgon Heap was built or if it was specifically for TMS, but I think he may have been in the background (the VERY background) of the Sex & Violence pilot.
His first TMS appearance was in the episode with Joel Grey...
Like the man said, Wayne was performed by Richard Hunt, Wanda by Eren Ozker (both of whom are sadly no longer with us, both lost to AIDS). When Eren Ozker left for the U.S. after Season One, to get married, the act Wayne & Wanda was dropped, although Wayne put in a handful of appearances in...
Especially Lothar. I finally figured out a way to use him in a Muppet Show outline! More on that as I develop it.
Gotta get back to work on these, I promised one a while ago that's been sitting ever since. Got a lot of hours at work though. Well, ya can't rush inspiration.
Don't know...
Does anyone know where I can find pics and character descriptions from The Great Santa Claus Switch online? I remember a site with pics from it a while back- anybody have the link to that? Anyone know of a site with character descriptions, i.e. one of Lothar? I need it for an upcoming...
I don't even know who Tom Waits is and I still love this one! Great S & W comments, good use of monsters, just plain a good one overall.

Looking for more Fraggle Rock episodes. CBC, HBO or Disney copies, preferably no Odyssey chop jobs. Here's what I have for trade, in the order it is on my tapes:
35 The Doozer Contest
37 Red's Club
38 The Secret of Convincing John
39 Manny's Land of Carpets
40 Junior Sells the Farm
42...
I tallied all the ones not on your list and updates. Here is what I have not on your list:
35 The Doozer Contest
38 The Secret of Convincing John
39 Manny's Land of Carpets
40 Junior Sells the Farm
43 Doomsday Soup
48 The Invasion of the Toe-Ticklers (on your list of expected but wasn't...
A matched set with the 'Worst TMS guest stars' thread. Here are my picks:
Rita Moreno: a richly deserved Emmy win for her sparkling and varied performance; she goes from expertly acted and executed slapstick to a sharp, catty dialected character to amiably being herself to trying to keep her...
I was just thinking about it, so I figured I'd start a thread. Here are my picks:
Bruce Forsyth: I've been planning to write an article about him and his episode for Tough Pigs, but my main points are: he's goofy, grating, insincere, a show-off and a phony
Marisa Berenson: not an insult...
Ken, a few questions for you:
Actually first a comment. I got the Swedish Kitchen today. I kept picking it up and sitting there looking at it in the box. When I got it all out and squared everything away, something strange happened. I went over and first of all grabbed Scooter and Beaker...
I'm debating on which version of The Muppet Show Albums 1 & 2 to try to buy on Ebay. As I recall The Muppet Show 2, Gatefold/US version, doesn't have the foldout cover revealing pictures of all the Muppets in the arches. This match up with what everyone else knows? Second, I have never seen...
Daffyfan-
All the Time-Life first season eps use second season openings. Vincent Price and Rita Moreno use the Bob Hope opening, Mummenschanz uses the Bernadette Peters opening, I think Juliet Prowse uses the Milton Berle opening (I would have to double-check, I don't watch it now that I...
EBGames.com is now charging $8.99 per fig, up from $7.99. Does anyone know another reliable online retailer that's selling them cheaper than that? Thanks.

Actually Trevor is green. He has a big funky orange bill and orange horns/ears on the sides of his head as well as semi-googly eyes (but the pupils don't move; they just look googly/goofy). I don't have a picture, but I think I may have seen one on the net. Sit tight, maybe someone will come...
