Ok, come one--say it with me now: YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! Fraggle Rock is back. The Electric Company is too. And the eight to ten-year-old in me couldn't be more ecstatic. (The term I would have used as an eight-year-old would be 'spazzed' but I am now a respectable mother and adult so I'll stick with 'ecstatic.)
E News Online is reporting the return of the beloved shows to both television and the movies. Fraggle Rock will return to life as a live-action musical film. The Electric Company will be reprised on the small screen on PBS with new episodes.
You may recall current cinematic heavy-weight Morgan Freeman made his mark on The Electric Company, as did comic Rita Moreno. Fraggle Rock, which ran on HBO and was from mastermind Jim Henson.
Can't wait to see the new versions of these old favorites! Will you tune in? Maybe this time with your kids too! Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments
