With arguably one of the catchiest theme songs of all time, we’re delighted to see The Jim Henson Company’s Fraggles still going strong after 42 years. This morning, Apple TV released the first trailer for the upcoming winter special featuring the denizens of Fraggle Rock!
The Fraggles eagerly await the first snow of the season and all the traditions it brings, but when only a single snowflake arrives and Gobo can’t write the yearly holiday song everyone is expecting, the season is thrown off course. For the first time ever, Gobo journeys to the human world, or as the Fraggles refer to it: Outer Space, to find some unexpected musical inspiration. And in another first, back at the Gorgs’ castle, Junior is overwhelmed by the arrival of a new baby Gorg joining the family. This holiday season, the Fraggles and Gorgs learn that beautiful moments aren’t always perfect—but they can be as unique and memorable as snowflakes.
Lisa Henson, Halle Stanford, John Tartaglia, Matt Fusfeld, Alex Cuthbertson, Arnon Milchan, and Yariv Milchan produce. Dave Goelz and Karen Prell co-executive produce. Harvey Mason Jr. serves as the executive music producer. The special is written by Fusfeld and Cuthbertson, produced by Chris Plourde, co-produced by Tim O’Brien, and directed by Jon Rosenbaum.
“The First Snow of Fraggle Rock” special comes to Apple TV Friday, December 5th. Check out the trailer now:
