In a world where comfort is a luxury, the announcement of a Fraggle Rock reboot feels like a warm hug from our childhood. The cherished characters Gobo, Red, Boober, Mokey, Wembley, and Uncle Traveling Matt are set to make a comeback in a fresh take on the classic Jim Henson series, now gracing our screens through Apple TV.
As reported by Variety, Apple TV has launched a new version called Fraggle Rock: Rock On! Each episode is designed to be a quick escape, lasting only three to five minutes. The first episode is available for free on Apple TV Plus today, with new episodes released every Tuesday—no subscription needed! It’s as if Apple TV understands our current need for brief distractions, especially for our little ones. After all, short segments might just be the perfect remedy for restless minds.
The reboot retains the essence of the original show, bringing back our favorite Fraggles who are ready to embark on new adventures, enjoy music, and share their whimsical tales. Additionally, viewers can expect guest stars, original songs, and innovative creations from the Doozers. What’s particularly fascinating is that the show was produced while adhering to social distancing guidelines, utilizing iPhone 11 cameras from the homes of the production team and talented artists across the nation.
It’s heartening to see the Muppet universe stepping up to provide comforting content during these tumultuous times. In a similar vein, other beloved shows like Sesame Street have been offering valuable resources for families navigating these uncharted waters.
For those who might not remember, the original Fraggle Rock series aired nearly 100 episodes from 1983 to 1987 on HBO, making it a nostalgic experience for many of us. Now, we can share this delightful journey with our kids, though let’s be honest—many parents might just be reliving their own childhoods through this!
So, get ready to dance your cares away, let the worries go for another day, and enjoy the musical magic of Fraggle Rock!
