Fraggle Rock - Convincing John
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Re: Fraggle Rock - Convincing John
Fraggle Rock was the best! The character Convincing John and the traveling minstrel Cantus Fraggle were the only two Fraggles Jim Henson performed.
When I met the Muppet performer Steve Whitmire a few years ago,(who now peforms Kermit and did Wembley Fraggle and Sprocket) and told him how much I had enjoyed the show, he broke into a huge grin. He had really enjoyed working on Fraggle Rock.

I loved the Fraggles. My favorite song had to be Red Fraggle's "There's a lot I want to know."

Re: Fraggle Rock - Convincing John
I am a Muppet fan and Fraggle Rock was a great show.
I own each of the first 3 seasons on DVD. And later this year, the 4th and final season will finally be released on its own in a box set!
Until then, season 4 is only available on a complete series collection. Which is bad news for everyone who had already purchased seasons 1-3.
The Jim Henson Company is also developing a Fraggle Rock movie. Hopefully it turns out well.
