No, no, no! Don't get me started on how Red and Gobo need to get together, ok?

(Sorry, I get a little touchy when it comes to the what-Fraggles-are-destined-to-be-together-thing)

Besides, Red isn't very Monica like, not many characters are like Monica. What can we say, she's one crazy girl!?
But Red's more grounded than Piggy, and is crazy and zany in her own ways (Monica with neurosity, Red with athletics, lol). And no, she and Boober wouldn't get married, I was just castin' this from character likenesses.

Course, she and Gobo would never get married, either...

:wink:

Now don't you get me started!

Do Fraggles even get married? I mean, there were Doozer couples and Gorg couples, but were there any Fraggle couples? How do Fraggles get born anyway? I knew that FR was a big free love hippie commune all along!

First of all, they don't really get married. You see, what we decided the last time we had this conversation at the old forum was that Fraggles have a much different, um, maturity growth than us humans. While we spend most of our lives as adults, they spend most of theirs as children. It's not until the end of their "cycle" (this has been referred to in many an episode) that their mature and reproduce. Of course, that's only what a group of us came up with, you don't have to believe it, heck you can make up your own answer!

I still can't decide who would play Dan Fielding. Which Muppet could be that sleazy and likeable at the same time?

Don't know about Sleezy, but animal was certainly in touch with his primal instincts, much like Dan, and is certainly likable.
