Fraggle Rock is an awesome show. I just discovered it now and never watched it as a kid even though it is for kids. It is educational without being 'look at what you learned' . It is about 3 different worlds and how they are connected. Humans, fraggle rock, and the gorg garden. It has catchy songs and a variety of muppet creatures. Also the character Gobo is Canadian, of course this isn't stated but some of his phrases and mannerisms are very distinctive. Anyway it is definitely my new favorite even though it was only on tv In the 80s.
My favorite characters are the Doozers, they build towers for fun and wait for Fraggles to eat them so there is space to build more towers. Sprocket the muppet dog of the human world is also pretty awesome. He has fingers and communicates with his person through 'charades'. Fraggles are multicolored anamorphic creatures with tails that live underground are about 2 feet tall and eat radishes. Fraggles call the human world Outer Space, the Fraggle Traveling Matt is exploring human culture and sends postcards back to Fraggle Rock for his nephew to collect each week. Sprocket often catches Gobo getting the mail bet is then distracted and lets him go back underground.
How can you go wrong with a magical trash heap that gives advice? Nyah...
