Fraggle Rock Ep. 97: Finding New Jobs

Well, I finally got to see the very rarely seen 'extra final' Fraggle Rock episode.(from 1986) Wow...I actually haven't really heard of this before, but it was definately something very rare and unique. I actually would now consider this one of my favorite FR episodes. I often wondered what happened to the Fraggle crew. I last saw Uncle Matt and CotterPin on the Today Show(from 1993)...last saw Filo on Mopatop(2001)...and last saw Sprocket in MTI.

I guess only cast members and JHC people have seen this, tho I think its now out on the trading circle. It's very well worth it. Richard Hunt is in it, ans hes quite funny. Boober calls up Terry Angus in a funny moment. The chemistry between Mokey and Red at this computer office just just hysterical. Lots and lots of in jokes about the puppeteers and behind the scenes people.
Also, gobo and Wembley hanging outside the studios where FR was filmed was funny too(especially when Jerry "Doc" Parkes walks by with his invisable dog)
It's even got a pretty moving song at the end.

Anyone here seen this?

Yeah, how'd you get your hands on this? C'mon, inquiring minds want to know! (or is that knowing minds want to inquire?)

I've known about it since this thread.

Of course, that thread is way outdated by now ...

Good to see people eager about this! It's about 15 minutes and is one of the funniest FR things Ive seen(especially when Boober calls Terry Angus)

Couldn't you give us a hint as to who/what your source was, though?

In case my clue wasn't obvious enough, it was me. But we're not the only ones who have it.
