I love this movie so much

The greatest movie ever!

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

To be totally honest, I haven't seen too many things from "Fraggle Rock." I've seen clips on YouTube and an episode or two of the show, but I never watched this show like I watched other Muppet projects.From what I did see, however, I like what I saw. Jim Henson and his team really outdid themselves with the advanced puppets in this show. As I mentioned in my review of "The Muppet Show," there's an episode of "The Jim Henson Hour" that talked about the secret of the Muppets. He explains how some of the characters work, like the Doozers and the Gorgs. They're not your average Kermit the Frog-operated puppets; these are robotic, electronic styled Muppets! They're very impressive! Not only are the Muppets impressive, but the songs are really good, too! These songs are great! They can sing any style of music, and these songs will stay with you forever! Two of my favorite songs, from what I heard, are "Ragtime Queen" and "Let Me Be Your Song," the song Cantus and the minstrels sing. The other element I love about this show is the set and the beauty of it. A great example of this is the song "Let Me Be Your Song" that Cantus and the minstrels sing. As they're playing, look at the nature around them. It's beautiful. It's very nice!I'm really upset that I never saw this show as a kid! Whenever we put in a video of one of the Muppet movies, a preview advertising this show on video cassette would play. That was my only exposure to this show as a kid. We never got the videos, the show didn't play on TV (or if it did, it didn't play where we could see it), and there was no YouTube for me to look up the show. It played on the Hub network a little while ago, so I decided to sit down and watch a couple of episodes. Sadly, I wasn't hooked on it. It looks really good and really creative, but I think that since it's a show for kids I would love it a lot more if I had seen it as a kid. One of the reasons I love "Sesame Street" now is because I saw it as a kid. I love the Muppets from "The Muppet Show" because, not only do they appeal to adults as well as kids, but I always saw them as a kid. When you see something great and wonderful during your childhood that appeals to your childhood, it will never leave you. For as great as this show is, though, I can't get invested in the characters or their situations now as an adult because this show isn't for me.That's not to say the show isn't good, though. It's very good, as you'd expect it to be! If you want to watch it just to say you've seen all of Jim Henson's projects and all the Muppet projects, I guess I'd recommend this to you. If you want to watch it to see all the advanced puppets, hear the great songs, or see the nice visuals, I'd recommend this to you. But if you didn't see this show as a child, I'd warn you that you might not get as invested as you'd hope you would. BOOYIKA!

Fragglerock is excellent in the way that Schindler's List was excellent. A Great watch for children and adults of all genders. Big noses can be seen as hinting towards phallic symbols, in the same way that H.R. Puff N Stuff had hinted towards marijuana smoking. Your kids will love this movie. I enjoyed it very much as a child. My father showed me this movie as a child. He enjoyed it as well and pointed out that the exaggerated noses were phallic symbols. Although at the time I had no clue about what those were. The movie is comedy and adventure. The storyline is wacky and cheerful. I and you shall enjoy this together.

Shows like Fraggle Rock don't get the chance to grace the TV screens anymore. Indeed, back in the 80's and early 90's when the show was most popular among kids and (some) of their parents, there was almost nothing else like it on TV. While it shared its connection to the other Jim Henson driven show, Sesame Street, it wasn't restricted to all of the same conventions. I remember the show as a kid bringing some memorable songs, lovable characters, and some morals that rivaled most of the animated cartoons. It was also at times, along with the tradition of the muppets, very funny. The dynamics of the world of the Fraggles, of their middle-world between the world of humans and the flip-side to the Gorgs, is something of fantasy fascination even as I'm now an adult.Once the basic premise is set-up from episode 1- Uncle "Travelly" Matt goes off into the real world to explore leaving his nephew Gobo and his pals (Mokey, Boober, Red, and Wembly) to have to retrieve a postcard each episode. In each episode, however, the Fraggles- along with their little friends the dozers, and the ominous Gorgs who think of themselves as the "rulers of the universe"- learn some new lessons, and sing some catchy songs. The whole concept of the show is practically never cynical, and like the best animated kids shows they give a variety of characters for kids to identify with and simple adventures for them to go through. There's also the wonderful touch of Doc and his dog Sprocket, who sort of keep a parallel to what the Fraggles learn.Was this as groundbreaking as the Muppet Show or Sesame Street? Yes and no; the humor and general storytelling is definitely at times more geared to kids, and for some adults it could be a little boring. But on a technical level it's still a marvel- the little dozers especially seem hard to control, which goes to show how much ahead of the game Henson was with his creations (and the mechanics of them). The sad thing is, those who are kids right now have an idea and have seen many of the Muppet stuff- the movies, the show maybe, the cartoons- as Fraggle Rock lays dormant. Luckily there is the new DVD of the first season out, which can provide a glimpse into what made it such a cult favorite in the 80's. I still like watching an episode every so often, and like with the other Muppet films and such, it brings a smile to my face, and not very cheaply either.

I watched Fraggle Rock when I was a kid, I thought it to be a magical world and actually believed in a place called Fraggle Rock when I was 4. Recently when it was aired it brought back old memories. The fraggles with their all play and no work was something that I enjoyed as a kid. However I didn't like the Gorgs and I also hoped that humans would one day interact with Fraggles. There are four different creatures: Man- Doc and his dog Sprocket, Fraggles, Douzers and Gorgs. Doc does not know the existence of the Fraggles, Gorgs want to capture the Fraggles and Douzers are the uncomplaining, untiring workers. The Fraggles are mainly Gobo the hero, Wembley, Mookey, Red & Boober.Great for young kids.
