    Will a Fraggle movie lead to Fraggle merchandise?

    I feel exactly the same way. While I'm hoping the movie will be a huge success, the main reason I'm anticipating the film is that it will hopefully lead to (and/or support) the release of the remaining three seasons on DVD.

    Triple Fraggle DVD in UK on March 12th

    Do we know what episodes will be included?

    Differences between the first two DVD sets

    A bit off topic here, but has anyone else had problems with the audio on Season 2? I get a "click" or "pop" coming from the speakers every now and then (on nearly every episode) and it doesn't seem to be an issue with the source material. Rather it seems like an issue with the processing of...

    Fraggle Rock SEASON 3 DVD BOX?

    It was around this time last year that Season 2 was announced, so if Season 3 is coming I suspect we should hear about it within the next few weeks.

    Happy 24th Anniversary Fraggle Rock

    Happy Birthday Fraggles! May 2007 bring more development on the movie and a Season 3 DVD release. :)

    Great Henson Article in New York Times (11/12/06)

    Hi Gelfling, Could you please post the text of the article here? Not everyone will be able to access NYTimes.com, as you need a login ID and password. Thanks!

    A few questions.

    Really? That's odd. It is a real shame Fraggle was shot on videotape - the imperfections on the DVDs are indeed very noticable. Unfortunately, there isn't much else you can do to tape but digitalize it.
  8. Traveling Matt

    A few questions.

    Fraggle Rock may be more than 20 years old but you need to remember it was shot on videotape, like almost all other TV shows of its day. The quality of videotape doesn't hold a candle to the quality of film, whose remastering for DVD is often great, often questionable. The Fraggle episodes...

    UNIMA's Puppetry International Fall/Winter 2006 issue discusses scripts in puppetry, and a short transcript of Fraggle episode #96 "Change of Address" is featured. This single issue should be available in Barnes and Noble or Borders for about $5.95. If you are interested in subscribing to...

    In Development: Henson's Fraggle Rock Movie

    Toronto seems unlikely. Best bet is probably LA.

    Your Thoughts: Fraggle Rock Season 2

    I know this news is a bit outdated, but HIT's online store has a page for Fraggle DVDs. They list Season Two here: http://www.hitshopusa.com/item/k/H101031 The page contains a trailer (which I can't get to work), and also has a mysterious marker saying "Limited Quantities." I wonder if...

    How many seasons of Fraggle Rock were there?

    The Count is correct. As it's been understood, the original deal between HBO and Henson called for five seasons to air. There were, however, only four seasons produced. Therefore the final production season of 26 shows was split to air as 13 and 13. So the most likely scenario for the DVDs...

    Fraggle Rock CD's: It's Time

    It's a great site, but I think fans would like CD-perfect audio without the dialouge from the episodes. Or at least I know I would.

    Fraggle Rock Season 2 Amazon Sales Rank

    Very true. There has been so little press for this (compared to Season 1) that I would think "in-store" sales must count at least as much as online sales. Many people (especially casual buyers) will discover this for the first time on a store shelf. BTW, for those who may be having trouble...

    Your Thoughts: Fraggle Rock Season 2

    I've been watching quite a bit, and I think HIT has done another great job with this set. It's wonderful! Just like last fall, I think it might be a really nice gesture to send a short note to HIT thanking them for the great Season 2 set, for continuing Fraggle seasons on DVD and to let them...

    Your Thoughts: Fraggle Rock Season 2

    The salesperson I spoke to at Best Buy said they had none in stock and none in transit. He said you could order it on their website, however. So my guess is that no Best Buy location anywhere will have the sets, which is really unfortunate since a lot of people buy their DVDs there.

    Your Thoughts: Fraggle Rock Season 2

    You should be able to find it in any Best Buy, Target, Wal-Mart, etc. I'm wondering why there seems to be no advertising too. No tv commercials, magazine or newspaper ads, nothing. Unless you search for it on the internet, I'm not sure you could even know it's coming... :confused:

    Fraggle Rock Season 2 coming September 5

    Wow, those bonuses seems pretty Traveling Matt-heavy! Are the original opening and closing credits still intact like the first set? How about any inserts or paperwork (other than the pitch book)? Thanks!
