It's been a big month for childhood icons: Legos and Smurfs turned 50, and now, Fraggle Rock is available on iTunes!
The first season of Fraggle Rock can be downloaded now, with more to come in the future. It and cult sci-fi show Farscape both hit iTunes this week, and the Jim Henson Company plans to put more shows online soon. Unfortunately, that doesn't include any Muppet-related content, as that all was sold to Disney a few years back.
But who cares about Muppets when there's Fraggle Rock to watch right now? Seriously — Mokey, Boober, the Gorgs, Sprocket the dog, radishes? I'm so there. Yeah, it's been available on DVD for a while, but DVDs don't fit in my pocket.
What other shows of your childhood would you love to see on iTunes eventually? Personally, I'd lobby for Jem and She-Ra: Princess of Power.
If you need a little cheer, you can watch the Fraggle Rock opening if you read more.

Fraggle Rock was my FAV next to the Smurfs - I also loved the Snorkes and Shirt Tales!!
1OMG, I'm so happy right now! I'm so tempted to go buy the whole season now!
2Yay! I loved Fraggle Rock!
Did anyone else ever channel their young, inner-feminist and get peeved that He-Man would appear to help She-Ra on her show, but She-Ra never once appeard to help He-Man? Both were defintiely favorites, though
3Well I wish they could do Muppets cause the Muppet Show was my fav!
4Now I have the Fraggle Rock theme song stuck in my head!
5Glad that you guys remember Fraggle Rock b/c I have a bunch of friends who have no idea what it is (was).
