I love the contrast between the two things that my mind has really latched onto from season 2 of "Back to the Rock," because on the one hand... Episode 5, "I'm Pogey!", was just so meaningful to me. I love Wembley, he's been my favorite fraggle since the days of the original and the rebooted take on him still holds that title, and as someone who is fluid in his own gender presentation it was very heartwarming seeing Wembley, a character I often call "such a mood," be a big part of the episode handling this topic. And then on top of the more implied and vague stuff (which, let me be clear, is not a complaint, it was all handled perfectly imo) you have Pogey, the first Henson Studio character I'm aware of to be canonically, explicitly they/them non-binary. I already found them so endearing last season, and the reason they are proud of their name and love to share it really, deeply resonated with me.

...And then on the other hand, it seems every season I'm just destined to be surprised by my interest in a new fraggle (or similar!) character with a connection to Mokey and voiced by a guest star. I didn't find Pryce quite as lovable as Lyle, but I still really like him. (Gee, my favorite modern character is Louie Duck and I like the green character doing a capitalist hustle, who woulda thought?) But the other thing with Pryce is the questions he raises! He comes from a different community of fraggles where "this for that" is the norm, and I just want to know more about that!

Shoutout to my bonus obsessions of the season, Ma Gorg getting the character glow-up I always longed to see her have in the original show, and of course, the affection between Gobo and Wembley being shown even more and in even sweeter ways. I really didn't think things could get gayer between them after Night of the Lights, but nah, Back to the Right seems determined to spoil the small (but currently feasting) group of fans shipping them. Love it.

And just in general, this season was great. It felt both even more entertaining and even more important in the messages it looks to teach youngsters (and hopefully adults too) than the first, which already did so much in both regards.

I’m attempting again to do some predictions for season 2. The last time I tried this I got too bogged down in the details, this time I’m going to try for broad strokes. I am no longer trying to map songs to episodes, though someone else can try if they dare. 

The series will continue to explore what Gobo’s friendship with Junior looks like. Meanwhile the other fraggles will remain understandably cautious of gorgs.

The video Doc acquired of fraggles interacted will either get deleted or corrupted in some way, she’ll assume some kids are playing a weird prank on her, or like Doc Classic, she will not be able to see fraggles at first. 

Lanford can talk in this season. 

Jamdolin will reveal that in his youth he was very much a worrywart like Boober, and they will bond over it (Fun is Here to Stay)

When Doc sings Free and High, she will not know she’s singing with the fraggles. Maybe Lambert's powerful pipes will resonate throughout the rock and be heard in the workshop, and she’ll find herself singing along…to a song she never heard before. Magic is infectious, after all. She’ll be a little weirded out by this, and be motivated to seek out answers about spontaneously breaking out into song. 

Junior will struggle to make his parents see his point of view about the fraggles. He will make some headway with Ma, when he mentions something he heard Gobo talk about regarding getting advice from the Trash Heap. She will seek this advice herself (Be a Queen)

Just going by song list I can tell it will get heavy in the last few episodes.

Doc will be the sort of ‘main antagonist’ of this season, kind of like Junior’s role in season one. She will do things, albeit unwittingly, to interfere with the delicate the balance of the rock. Conflict will come to a head before Doc and the Fraggles somehow bridge the gap and they become friends. Where Gobo bridged the gap between gorgs and fraggles, it will be up to Red to reach out to Doc (The Hope we Build Together)

As for sorting guest stars…

I mean, obviously Daveed Diggs revives his role as Jamdolin. He’s pretty much a staple of the show. There are also four other new guest stars not assigned roles: Adam Lambert, Brett Goldstien, Adriana DeBose and Catherine O’Hara. There are also four characters we’ve spotted in images.

The redheaded fraggle has spoken in the trailer and her voice is very Catherine O’Hara like. I believe that is her. I also believe she’s more or less a representative of the ‘lost fraggles’, a group of fraggles who got separated from main population way back when. This probably explains her antique looking/renaissance inspired clothes. 

Both the tiny glam fraggle and the big glam monster look like fitting characters for Adam Lambert, but I’m giving it to the purple guy, as his only song is with Wembley and Pogey, not a whole auditorium of people.

Between Brett and Ariana, Ariana seems more fitting for the tiny concert fraggle, and Do the Sashay feels more like a showstopper song than Brett’s 2. Which leaves Brett to be the craggle. He is, I suspect, a fill in character for Lyle, functionally. They probably wanted to tell more craggle stories, but weren’t able to get Ed Helms back for the second season.

My review of Episode 1 of Fraggle Rock Back To The Rock S2. (Spoilers)

A fun first episode! That opening song was amazing. There were a ton of really funny jokes and we set up some interesting plot points! I think that talking about toxic positivity and how to help a friend after they've dealt with something scary or dramatic was a great topic. The new song was okay. I loved seeing Mudwell in a little cameo. I think the pacing was a little rushed, and I feel like it's a little too similar to S1 E1, but I'll let it slide because I had a good time. Traveling Matt made a cackle this episode, especially when he mailed Pogey back to the rock in a box. I'm excited to see more!

To answer your question about what's going on with Wembley in the reboot, episode 5 of the new season is about Wembley going on a journey of self-expression (kickstarted by him finding Mokey's old robe!) that's meant to be a metaphor for gender expression and figuring out one's identity. Wembley isn't EXPLICITLY stated to be nonbinary/genderfluid, but the wording used throughout the episode (and the fact that one of the characters who helps Wembley figure all of this out uses they/them pronouns) makes it pretty clear that's what his experiences are supposed to be a metaphor/analogy for. It's a really good episode, I genuinely started crying watching it.

FUCK YEAH

I already headcanoned him(and all the other Fraggle Five tbh) as Nonbinary so this is epic!! Thanks for telling me!

(also I’m Nonbinary and think anything like that is fucking epic to me)

[littlegreenbones]

i told my mom about nonbinary pogey :-)

[text: I love that! And I think Jim Henson would be really happy about it because it was important to him for children to feel included and listened to. I know Sesame Street is clearly different from Fraggle Rock, but one of the reasons it's Sesame Street is because of "open sesame" ... he wanted it to be something open and accessible for all children. So this makes me happy for his legacy. /end text]

Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock's holiday episode was so sweet, and the themes of unity in Matt's postcard in particular were genuinely touching.

But I'm just dying over my silly little ships, I mean, as if the gift subplot with Mokey and Red wasn't cute enough already, they pulled a second punch with Gobo wishing Wembley's wish would come true. Wembley being rendered speechless, and that hug...

Look, Gobo and Wembley were already shippable in the original series, but the reboot dialed that up to an eleven. I cannot survive a second season of this.
