you know, this was the the trash heap's idea, she sent her sons to spy on the fraggles and doozers.

[CeeKayz0rz]

Jim Henson will surely be missed.

OMG... SO great... the lyrics... the PURE genius... in EVERY episode of Fraggle Rock! Wondrous! xo

[Syrcaid]

I can never get over how clever this tune is! I'm probably going to end up singing it to my kids.

[moosemanvanalgae]

Doozer 1: Hey! You're using all the lime green!

Doozer 2: My cardigan would look silly without my green stripes!

Doozer 1: Don't shout!

Doozer 2: I'LL SHOUT! I'LL SHOUT IF I WANT TO! And do you know why?

Doozer 1: Why?

Doozer 2: BECAUSE I HATE KNITTING! I WANT TO BUUUUUUUUUUUUIIIIIIIIIIIILLLLL­LLLLLLDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!

[IvyLULZ]

this episode is based on the Irish Potato Famine, seems very similar :)

[efil4own1]

The first Doozer that sings sounds like Bunsen Honeydew!

[collgoff]

@efil4own1 Yay I know!

[AriGriffin243]

@efil4own1 Same Muppeteer.. :D

[Americanautistic]

@efil4own1 Yup... He does, probably because he's played by the one and only DAVE GOELZ!!!

[infinitemystic7]

more fraggle songs please

[starwars96]

Everyone once in a while my mom randomly start singing "Knit one, pearl two, what's a doozer gonna do with a gaul darn ball of yarn!" And we haven't watched this in 7 years XD

[nonnelien]

GEWELDIG!!!!!!!!!!!

[fibrousvids]

They'd probably like knitting more if they started with a scarf instead of a cardigan. Just saying.

[xXVanillaBlueXx]

@fibrousvids LMFAO! As a new knitter i can totally relate to this sentiment haha

[eblasphamy1]

COTTERPIN!!!!

[collgoff]

Why the doozers are niting?

[Pooleman96]

Because the radishes they use to create Doozer Sticks for construction have disappeared, so now they have to find something else to do.

[collgoff]

No, no I ment The doozers doing niting.

[Pooleman96]

Because they can't build anything without Doozer Sticks, so like I said they have to find something else to do.

[hean5168]

In 1984 when I was only two my mother used to say that Fraggle Rock was the only thing that could keep me still for a few minutes. Now I'm knitting christmas gifts to my big sister and thinking of the 1980s - those where the days!

[Electrolite100]

@hean5168

Ditto!

[Pooleman96]

I have this episode on the Season 1 dvd. I love how the radish famine affected the Gorgs, having them disappear from the head down.

[Quidam]

That part was hilarous towards the end when Mokey, Junior and the Doozer were all freaking out!

[Colbynfriends]

See what happens when there's no radishes? lol. This is from one of the first episodes I saw, along with the episode The Minstrels. Good times. :D

[kissmyapple417]

I love that you can hear all the clicking of the knitting needles! :D
