I do. Set in a lighthouse and had some characters called doozers. Trying to remember the theme tune. It will bug me for a while until I drag the tune and words from my rusting mind

Here ya go! Love Fraggles.

Yes I know..I'll have that song in my head all day!

I remember it, but when it was originally aired, it wasn't my thing, it was my sister's. I would be aware of it peripherally when she was watching, but I was usually busy doing something else and didn't pay attention to it.

The Muppet Show, now ... THAT I remember.

Muppets and fraggles, wow, now that brings me back...

Not sure where I was, but now I'm back. Fraggle Rock...now I've got that tune stuck in my head. Bad, Access, bad....

I remember the big scary creatures outside ... and one episode in particular ...

one of the fraggles was feeling guilty for eating the (dozers?) buildings ... and they almost moved away, for they depended on them eating their buildings to keep them going ... of course this is blurred memories, but, I think that is rather close.

For some reason, I just got a flashback of The Letter People!

Hong Kong is Fraggle Rock!

I'm not being funny, but when have the Chinese ever stopped building!

And after last night watching the Rugby. I could be described as a crazy Fraggle!

Just watched the episode Wembley and the gorgs: the american version. Suddenly the gorgs make more sense. From what I can work out the fraggles lived underground connecting america with a critique of the of the uk royal family. Our version was a bit different. So the Royal family have no empire: as the british empire is largely a thing of the past. It also hints at how the people of the uk are little more than slaves ruled by the royal family. Not that us british haven't known this for a long time: at least those that want to. It is a facsinating episode. It is the second episode of the first series of fraggle rock.

DOOZERS!!!

Loved it when I was young and still love it now!! Doozers were always very cool as everyone knows, but one more interesting character that people often overlook was the Trash Heap!!

Yes, the all knowing and wise mystic "Trash Heap".

"I'm orange peels, I'm coffee grounds, I'm wisdom!"

The Trash Heap has spoken.....yhaa
