I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Not that I'm saying that this animated version of the smash hit show Fraggle Rock was bad, it just wasn't as good as its live action predecessor. It just amazes me why they would make an animated show after the live action show had at the time ended its run. Still, it was a good show, it just didn't come close to the live action show. It became a casulty of the 1987-1988 Saturday morning schedule in which numerous new shows were out of the picture after one season.

Fraggle Rock was an excellent series developed by Jim Henson back in 1983. It was a wonderfully successful series with strong messages, a genuine development over all 93 episodes, and boasted a host of talented Muppeteers. It began with all the different species (humans, Fraggles, Gorgs) in confusion and turmoil with one another, and by the end they were all at peace together.Now I still can't figure out why this animated resurrection came to be. I guess they just wanted to bring the fun (and popularity) of Fraggle Rock to network television (the original aired on HBO). But it just didn't measure up and the competition killed it.Anyway, this version has faded into oblivion, and the original remains a timeless classic, so everything had a way of working out...
