The plot synopsis for the series is as follows:
“The beloved stars of the classic ’80s series — Gobo, Red, Boober, Mokey, Wembley and Uncle Traveling Matt — join together again for new stories and classic Fraggle songs that show everyone how we are all connected through friendship. While the Fraggles might be in different parts of the Fraggle Rock caves, they can still find ways to have fun together, with music, silliness, special guests, and of course the help of devices created by the industrious Doozers — lovingly called the Doozertubes!”
The revival series will feature a collection of mini-episodes that, according to Apple TV+’s press notes, were “shot on iPhone 11 phones from the homes of the production team and individual artists from all over the U.S.” amidst global health lockdowns. Rock On! is produced by The Jim Henson Company and executive produced by Halle Stanford and John Tartaglia.

The pilot episode for the series is currently available for streaming on Apple TV+.
