Apple TV+ is Bringing Back FRAGGLE ROCK and Here's a Trailer!
The classic Jim Henson series Fraggle Rock is making a comeback thanks to Apple TV+! The new iteration of the series is titled Fraggle Rock: Rock On! and the plan is for each episode to be three to five minutes long, with the first episode of the series already available to watch for free on the streaming service. New episodes will premiere for free every Tuesday.
The show brings back classic characters like Gobo, Red, Boober, Mokey, Wembley, and Uncle Traveling Matt. “While the Fraggles might be in different parts of the Fraggle Rock caves, they can still find ways to have fun together, with music, silliness, special guests, and of course the help of devices created by the industrious Doozers called the Doozertubes.”
The first episode is titled “Shine On,” and it features new Doozertubes being delivered to the Fraggles’ caves, allowing them to come together for a favorite song “Shine On, Shine On Me.”
The new episodes are being produced by The Jim Henson Company, and executive produced by Halle Stanford and John Tartaglia. It’s explained that “in accordance with the current social distancing guidelines, Fraggle Rock: Rock On! is all shot on iPhone 11s from the homes of the production team and individual artists from all over the U.S.”
If you grew up watching Fraggle Rock and you’re a fan, this is a show that I’m sure you’ll happily watch and enjoy.
