The Jim Henson Company’s beloved children’s television series, Fraggle Rock, ran four seasons (96 episodes) from 1983 to 1987 on HBO accompanied by a unique mix of music, from folk, blues and gospel to country and rock. The series entertains and encourages an understanding and embracing of diversity. Starring a variety of quirky cave-dwelling creatures, the world of Fraggle Rock is a unique place where three different, yet surprisingly similar communities learn to live and work in harmony.
With five International Emmys (including the award for “Outstanding Children’s Program”) and a Cable ACE Award to its credit, the series broke new creative ground for children’s television in the 1980s and continues to earn new fans to this day!
