Fraggle Blog - Boober's Dream

Episode IIvi, by Jocelyn Stevenson.

Another onscreen title for this episode!

"All dreams are a little bit true," sayeth Marjory.

Okay, this is a fairly brilliant episode. A huge flowering and expansion of Fraggle life and culture, used to reveal a fascinating aspect of Boober's repressed character. Sidebottom is brilliant!

Plus, Doc having dreams about Fraggles as well!

Okay, Matt is watching The Dark Crystal. Cool.

Oh dear...I don't think we needed a soft slow song about dreaming...but it has nice harmonies...

The sudden flying from the usual cut-off-at-the-waist framing of the puppets is great.

One day, Doc says, he'll figure out why he dreamed about the silly creatures. One day he'll understand.

Okay, best episode evah. A hearty brava to Jocelyn Stevenson. Full of mystery, and possible meanings and connections, and a prolonged delving into the psyche of my favorite Fraggle. Awesome.
