My brother and I are driving ourselves crazy trying to think of the name of a show we remember from when we were younger. It was on very early in the morning, not sure what network, possibly a canadian one. We would have watched it in the early 90's, but I'm not sure if that's when it aired originally, or if it was repeats. All the characters were puppets, but not as nice as the jim henson ones, and the show had something to do with them all living in a kingdom or castle. I think I remember some of them having kind of annoying voices, too. That's pretty much all we can remember about it. Thanks for any help remembering the title!

Thanks, but it's not fraggle rock... the puppets were more like people, and the setting was kind of dark. We can't find information on it anywhere...

Could it be the puppets in the land of make believe on Mr. Rogers Neighborhood?

Thanks, but the puppets were bigger than mr. rogers'... I think they could open their mouths, too, like on sesame st... but maybe some of them had teeth...

Are you thinking of Spitting Image? Check out the Genesis "Land of Confusion" video:

And see if those are the puppets you are thinking about. They certainly fit the rest of your description.

Never mind... my brother saw a bit of it on TV early this morning at work... I can't believe they're still showing it... it's called kingdom adventure. Copyright 1990
