Fraggle Blog - Wembley's Egg

II i, written by Laura Phillips.

So Muppet Wiki tells us a four-month period came between the end of season 1 taping and the beginning of season 2. Ma Gorg gets a new voice.

I'm not sure that we're getting the original titles as broadcast.

Ooh, a nice title name graphic. New for season 2.

I like Gobo wondering how a creature in an egg breathes. Good question!

This is part Dr. Seuss, part A.A. Milne!

The Baby Tree Creature is very cute.

Okay, now this flying lesson song is very nicely integrated into the plot. This is just what is needed. As for the first song, it was nice, but I don't understand why Wembley was telling the Baby Tree Creature to hush when it hadn't yet made a peep?

Seuss, Milne, and now Baum!

This may be my favorite episode yet. Charming, funny, full of good lessons yet without seeming at all moralistic. And having the flying song come right out of the plot and taking it over for a couple of minutes made all the difference in the world. Hopefully that's a sign of things to come. Season 2 is off to a great start!
