Fraggle Facts

• The Fraggle moon is a very special, magical object in Fraggle Rock. The Gorg moon just hangs in the sky, but the Fraggle moon (when reflected on full moons through the Gorg well into the Fraggle Pond) swims in the water, creating a beautiful vision.

Notes

• This episode is based on a Jewish folktale about the people of Chelm, adapted for the particular circumstances of the Fraggle universe.

• Henchy Fraggle, the World's Oldest Fraggle's put-upon sidekick, debuts in this episode.

• During Uncle Travelling Matt's quest in Outer Space, there is an appearance by a real chicken.

• Jerry Nelson is heard in the Doc and Sprocket scenes as the narrator on the sleep-aid record.

• Boober does not appear in this episode, perhaps due to the World's Oldest Fraggle (another Dave Goelz character) appearing during the ceremony.

• The outfits and hats worn by the "moon-greeter" Fraggles closely resemble that of the Pipebangers.
