Fraggle Rock* Uncle Matt's Postcards #14

[radiodj1520]

I Believe This Was A Video Clip From The Episode Of "Fraggle Rock" On April 11, 1983.

Well Traveling Matt was right about smoking but what other thing he's right about?

[soniquefus]

I like how Boober has the doozer stick hanging from his mouth right before this clip. It's like foreshadowing XD

[ofudgems]

@soniquefus Oh my God! That's insane! I love it! I had to look at it again to see that. Puppeteers are so talented! Thank you Jim Henson! R.I.P.

[fibreoptik]

quick and decisive fraggle FTW 

[babymoondancer]

Uncle Matt is right about some things.

[collgoff]

@babymoondancer Yeah like smoking. What other things Matt fraggle is right about?

[collgoff]

Well I geuss we all agree on that one.

[sheepwolf2004]

it was funny when matt dumped the water on the man

[antsamthompson9]

Traveling Matt sure is right about smoking being dangerous. I've been trying to engourage my mom to stop smoking, but I can't find the right way for her to stop. Can anyone recommend some midication that's not Chintax?

[collgoff]

@antsamthompson9 I know how you feel because my mom dose smoking too.

[antsamthompson9]

@collgoff That's good to hear.

[collgoff]

@antsamthompson9 I know I tried to help my mom to quit smoking but it didn't work very good.

[antsamthompson9]

@collgoff That's a shame.

[Srd1126]

@antsamthompson9 All the medication in the world won't get someone to quit until they decide to on their own. Most effective method I ever heard was a woman asked her daughter what she wanted for Christmans and daughter (child) wanted her to quit smoking.

[antsamthompson9]

@Srd1126 Dang.

wow fraggle rock brings back so many good memories i was really little at the time and of course it was only on HBO which sucked since the cable was kinda expensive at that time but anyways i'll always remember my sister's boyfriend at the time usted to bring his box over hook it up for me so i could watch it to this day i still love fraggle rock jim henson was one of the most brilliant and creative minds so hello up in heaven jim and thanks for all the work you left here on earth

[Mattcrowley2a]

Those are called "cigarettes".

[TelephoneRock4ever]

"This must be an unpleasant and dangerous practice." You are very right, Traveling Matt. I hate smoking, and it's very bad for your lungs, to be breathing in all that smoke.

[ALXXMaXX]

Sometimes, Fraggles seem so, so, SO much smarter than we are.

[collgoff]

@ALXXMaXX What do you mean Fraggles are sometimes smarter than us?

[ALXXMaXX]

@collgoff I mean that they at once realize that smoking is an incredibly stupid and self-destructive idea, as opposed to some human patterns of thought like "Heeeeey some kids say that smoking makes you look cool so imma do it hurrrrrrrr"

[collgoff]

@ALXXMaXX Oh I see.

[collgoff]

I thinke uncle Matt might be right about smocking and it's really bad for you and I'm glad I never do such a thing like that.

[coolrunnings414]

Wow, it seems Uncle Traveling Matt was ahead of his time - "this must must be unpleasant and dangerous practice" and "it is obviously very unhealthy for them". Personally, as I have asthma and am allergic to tobacco smoke, I was rather impressed by Matt throwing the pitcher of water on the guy with the cigar dangling out of his mouth!

[collgoff]

@coolrunnings414 Why is that?

[eugtheman]

what diner is uncle matt at? Is it in upstate new york or canada?

[SIDSmom]

neither new york nor canada have a large number of tropical trees, if any at all.
