Here’s my breakdown:

• Gobo == Joey

  Both leading men who were the central focus of the show. I figure since Joey got a spin-off, that’s applicable. It’s a stretch, but this is the most lovable character in both series.

• Mokey == Phoebe

  Both are artists and very flighty.

• Wembley == Chandler

  Endearingly indecisive and everything Gobo (Joey) isn’t.

• Red == Rachel

  The unique hairstlye, the can-do attitude, the enthusiasm. They share them all.

• Boober == Ross

  Both are intelligent worriers who try to gussy up the deadly boring by enjoying it.

• Any Doozer == Monica

  Since there are 6 Friends and only 5 Fraggles, I had to make one crazy connection. The Doozers are always busy, very fastidious and organized just like Monica.

While Fraggle Rock might not have directly influenced Friends, I think there are some interesting parallels within the two casts.

More fraggle/friend blogging later.

There you have it. Not necessarily a very scholarly breakdown, but I think it’s a theory worth considering. .

Or at least forwarding to your friends or fraggles.
