I grew up watching Fraggle Rock- it gave my childhood that spark of magic!
When I heard about the new series, I nearly cried tears of joy.
The return of Karen Prell (Red) and David Goelz (Boober and Traveling Matt) is greatly appreciated! The Doozers are still clever, hardworking creatures. The Gorgs are as goofy and bumbling as ever! The new Doc is cool- I honestly wouldn't want to see a Gerard Parkes imitation as it would only be disrespectful to him. I would like to see a bit more from her scenes with our beloved Sprocket- who my sister had once convinced me was a real dog. The music is just as wonderful as I remember with some classics from the original thrown in!
My biggest complaint, however, is the physical and personality change in Mokey. It's distracting, irritating and totally unnecessary.
Overall, this team has done a great job in capturing the magic of Jim Henson's vision while implementing modern capabilities.
