THE FIRST SNOW OF FRAGGLE ROCK - CATCHING UP WITH GUEST STAR LELE PONS

There’s a new human visiting with the Fraggles who brings inspiration, music and joy for the holiday season.

The First Snow of Fraggle Rock is a new Apple TV holiday special where Gobo faces writer's block for the annual holiday song, only for a single snowflake to arrive, sending him to the human world ("Outer Space") for inspiration.

There he meets singer and Venezuelan YouTube pop star Lele Pons who is going through a writer’s block herself and is about to have her first child. Through this visit the Fraggles learn that imperfect moments, like a single snowflake, are unique and special, alongside a storyline about Junior Gorg becoming a dad. 

Lele duets with Gobo on the classic Fraggle Rock song “Our Melody.” The First Snow of Fraggle Rock—Apple Original Soundtrack — a four-song EP that includes “Can You Feel It?,” two versions of “Our Melody,” and “Face Facts, Pack Snacks, Make Tracks” — available digitally via Lakeshore Records.

From the Jim Henson Company, “The First Snow of Fraggle Rock” is executive produced by Lisa Henson, Halle Stanford, John Tartaglia, Matt Fusfeld, Alex Cuthbertson, Arnon Milchan and Yariv Milchan. Dave Goelz and Karen Prell co-executive produce. Harvey Mason Jr. serves as the executive music producer. The special is produced by Chris Plourde.

“The First Snow of Fraggle Rock” is now streaming on Apple TV.

I spoke with Lele Pons about working with the Fraggles and how motherhood has changed and inspired her.
