Since they were both Henson creations, are they not one in the same, or at least third cousins? :D

I don't really remember Fraggle Rock a lot, but I know I liked it. But I have too many fave Muppets to count, including Kermit, Rolf, Beaker, Dr. Bunsen, the two old dudes in the balcony (can't remember their names right now... wasn't it Waldorf and Astoria?), Eagle Sam, etc.

Okay, so I can't recall offhand... but how many crossovers were there between the series. I recall there was a crossover between the Muppets and a certain Bill Cosby show, but . . .

Statler and Waldorf... hey, one out of two isn't bad, Torley. :D

I have to say, Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem has got to be the best band name, EVAR!!!1! :D

Fraggles are quite excellent (especially the miners) but the Muppets just rock.......

I for one would love to see Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem do some of todays music, like "the dope show" by Marilyn Manson..... Give animal some good music (an woman) an he'll party all night. :)

Make mine Muppets..........

Fraggles aren't muppets! And besides, if they were, then they would still be a lesser being because they would be only a subset of the superset of the muppet race. But they aren't muppets!!!! Two different shows!!!! :eek:

Anyway, the muppets would DEFINITELY win in a fight. I mean, would you want to go up against the likes of Ms. Piggy and Animal? I THINK NOT! With the charismatic and heroic leadership of Kermit, there's just no competition. And don't forget Fozzie is a BEAR! Uhoh! They are dangerous! If the deadly claws don't kill you, the bad jokes will! The muppets have their own science and research team as well, to research deadly weapons and other dangerous thingys! (And you thought the pig was dangerous unarmed!) And Gonzo...well, do you want to know HOW he got that name??? I'd tell you all but it would just get censored for extreme violence!!!

Fraggles ARE Muppets. They were all Henson creations, and equals in the eyes of their Creator. Be they radio controlled, rod controlled or guided by a hand up their (nonexistant) asses, they are all Muppets, brothers, sisters and "others" in arms! What are you, a Fragglist? :D

The Fraggles have been on the Muppet Show a couple of times and the christmas Muppet movie/show.

:D

The fact that they have the same "creator" (geez no need to bring religion into this argument) means nothing! Two different shows! Is a fraggle ever referred to as a muppet? No! Maybe a puppet, but not a muppet! I challenge you to find a quote where Jim Henson said all of his creations were classified as "muppets". Aha not willing to take that challenge huh??? Because he never did!!! :p

And the muppets would whoop fraggle butt if they try to disagree!

The Fraggles are just as much Muppets as the characters on Sesame Street. :D

Are you implying that some of the residents on Sesame Street are not Muppets? Some, as in the non humanoid ones that always seem to be hiding behind walls or bearing fabric hides.:D

Is Oscar a Muppet? Nope! Big Bird? Nope... c'mon ask any 6 year old and they'll give you the same answer! Perhaps some are, but I doubt it, and the main characters definitely are NOT MUPPET-LIKE AT ALL! :p

Muppets own by a slim margin...Animal and the Swedish Chef in particular. Though, Boober from FR ruulz,...Wembly and Red drag the show down...so I vote Muppets.

As a first generation Sesame Street viewer, I have to respectfully disagree. They were ALWAYS refered to as Muppets from day one.
