This is a brilliant idea as long as they dont screw it up. I would like to see alot of Boober! And an apperence by the fun loveing Sidebottom! I think Doc and Sprockette shuld'nt be in the film they cant replace Doc....
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.

Why no Doc or Sprockey?? They were intrical to the Fraggle Family and spirit. You gotta have Sprocket! They don't have to have huge roles but atleast a cameo or a short scene or 2. Doc was great!

This post is a muffin, but yesterday I was watching MCC, and Sprocket was hanging out a window in the opening number. :eek:

Maybe not Doc..but certainly Sprocket. Perhaps with a new owner? A grand child of Doc?

All the more reason to hurry up and get started on the thing...at least shoot the Doc/Sprocket scenes.

But, if they DID have to replace Doc...who? The closest I could think of would be the guy who played Roscoe on Dukes of Hazzard on TV (NOT the movie).

Maybe he wants nothing to do with the project, plus he moved away the last episode

But, in the last episode, after moving didn't the Fraggles still find their way to his new house?

I don't think anybody's said "NO" Doc in the movie. It's been posted that he's still acting and is doing fine.

I did ask that if you HAD to replace the character with another actor, who would it be--that's all. Just curious.

Really, a Fraggle Rock story isn't a Fraggle Rock story without Doc. The only reason I could see for them NOT using Doc is because of his many incarnations in all the different countries (they didn't use the same actor in every country, y'know that already though). Plus, the toolshed changed with every show to a lighthouse or whatever else.

Whatchoothinkin?
