The fertile imagination of Jim Henson spawned this colorful puppet program that was not only an international hit during the 1980s, but remains a much-loved favorite of viewers to this day. This series for both the young and young at heart follows the adventures of the Fraggles, a race of short, furry creatures living a carefree existence in a complex network of magical caves. When they're not filling their time playing games, singing songs or dancing their cares away, Gobo, Mokey, Red, Wembley and Boober Fraggle seek the sage advice of Marjory the Trash Heap, nosh on the confectionary constructions of the industrious Doozers, and attempt to stay clear of the giant beings known as Gorgs.

Fraggle Rock makes a great halfway mark - it's got fun, silly songs like those on Sesame Street , strong story lines reminiscent of the Muppets, and even a hint of the dark side usually associated with The Storyteller Go to Full Review Marc Shulgold Los Angeles Times 06/01/2018
When the last show had aired -- a moving tribute to the spirit of friendship -- I found myself with a lump in the throat as the credits rolled while, for the first time, all the characters joined in on the theme song. Go to Full Review Eleanore Catolico PopMatters 06/01/2018
