Who here remembers this show? I was checking out the first episode on netflix.com. I can't believe it's been over 20 years since I last saw this show on HBO.

    I used to watch this show all the time when I was a kid. Way better than the Muppets IMO.

    aw, I used to love Fraggle Rock...I haven't seen it in ages though. I guess you can probably get it on dvd?
    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.
