Fragglerne is the Danish dub of Fraggle Rock. Only season 1 was dubbed in Danish, the other seasons have never been shown on Danish TV.
It was shown for the first time in 1984 on the channel DR1. Since then Fragglerne has been in re-runs a couple of times. There have been a few instances where there only 18 episodes aired in a re-run cycle.
In 2004, a campaign was started by two radio hosts to get Fragglerne back on the air; it had been over 10 years since the last re-run of the show. The campaign was a success, as DR was amazed about how many people wanted to see Fragglerne again. The series was intended for re-broadcast during December 2004. A few months before the planed re-run the station discovered, that they no longer had the rights to the Danish soundtrack. The rights for the soundtrack where in the library owned by Johnny Reimar, so a race against time started to secure the rights before the planned re-run. During this time, it was confirmed that while 24 episodes were dubbed, 26 episodes (including two episodes from the second season) were purchased in 1984. The distributor of the Fragglerne DVD's said, after the first 4 dvd's, that they where trying to get the crew together for the dubbing of additional episodes of the series.[1]
The latest re-run of Fragglerne occurred in June/July 2006.
The Danish translation was made by Steen Springborg (who also voiced Gobo and others) and Biger Swan.
