    Fraggle foods

    I forgot the milk? Dang. Y'know, I gotta wonder where Fraggles get milk from. They don't have cows, right? So what animal produces the milk, and who collects it? I must not have that episode. This is kinda neat. I almost feel like writing a fake Fraggle Rock recipe. Almost. David...

    TMS outline- Jim Croce!

    Probably a little like the carrot but less posh. Truthfully I arrived at Friedman b/c I couldn't imagine any of the main five guys singing it- I hadn't played it out in my mind audially. Also, I mis-wrote the backstage bit in the opening (I basically made it up on the spot- can't believe I...

    TMS outline- Jim Croce!

    YouKnow Bird- Richard Whatnot- Peter Friedman Gorgon- Dave Big Mama- Richard Gorgon & Big Mama don't say much tho, they probably just laugh at the punchline, if even that. I can't believe I forgot to do the opening. I knew I should've waited to post this outline, figures that in the...

    TMS outline catalog (DON'T REPLY)

    Sat down and wrote this tonight, based on my notes from August from ideas generated who knows when. Jim Croce, 12/4/05 David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

    TMS outline- Jim Croce!

    ... Or, "Occasion of the Body Switchers". This was an idea I always wanted to do, sort of an expansion of what they did in "Pigs in Space" on the Harry Belafonte episode (I think I came up with my idea before I saw that). Jim Croce, for those who don't recognize the name, was a recording...

    An Interesting Thought

    I think one occasionally gets the feeling that Red has a crush on Gobo (tho she'd never admit it). One could read that episode that way- but then again, she was upset b/c she wanted him to do a slide stunt with her and he wasn't making time for her, but made time for Mokey. In some of the...

    Neil Patrick Harris' hero is Jim Henson

    Or will be soon. When I think A-list, I'm thinking Crowe, Cruise, Kidman, Zellweger, Depp, Julia Roberts, Carrey, Myers, Sandler- the people whose names automatically draw crowds at movie theaters, the biggies. All of those aforementioned folks were born before 1970. Still, I don't doubt that...

    Evolution of Season One

    I just got through watching the first 12 episodes in production (not airing) order. For those who don't know, the shows were taped in this order: "The Thirty-Minute Work Week" "Don't Cry Over Spilt Milk" "You Can't Do That Without a Hat" "The Preachification of Convincing John" "Let the...

    They are on the backburner. Don't hold your breath for 'em, I'm sorry to say I keep pretty busy these days. I'll get to them eventually. Will probably do the Sid Caesar one first. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

    Favorite Fraggle?

    Hard to choose between Wembley and Boober. Wembley was my favorite growing up, but Boober has gotta be the funniest of the Fraggle five, with his deadpan humor and big vocabulary, which IMO elevate FR to that additional level where it can be appreciated by adults. But I love Wembley to death...

    The Minstrels

    I wouldn't put it that way, exactly. My reading of it was that being a Minstrel was like being part of a select musical priesthood, and that being a nomad and leaving behind your friends and your home was one of the requirements. I wouldn't think it was a challenge to what little authority...

    Fraggle foods

    I thought it might be fun to make a list of the foods found in the Fraggle and Gorg world. Here's what I can recall: -Radishes (radish bars, Doozer sticks, radish dip, radish toast, etc.) -Rutabagas -Tomatoes -Mustard -cabbage (the skunk variety) -greaseberries -stinkberries -peaches...

    "Never Seen Again...."

    The tunnel itself looked like a giant stone clam, and was voiced by Karen Prell (in her 'monstrous' voice, which IMO is really creepy). David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

    Early Gobo on Season 1

    His appearance changed between the first episode taped ("Thirty-Minute Work Week") and the second ("Don't Cry Over Spilt Milk"). In 'Work Week', his hair is askew and his pupils are farther apart; also I think the hair/eyelids mechanism is absent. In 'Don't Cry...', his pupils are closer...

    Fraggle Rock film in development

    I'd like to know who's definitely on board among the performers, and also, where it's going to shoot (i.e. Toronto or someplace else). Also gotta wonder if any of the original second tier performers will be back (like Cheryl Wagner, Terry Angus, Rob Mills, Trish Leeper, Gord Robertson, Bob...
