Hub TV network was right...Fraggle DOES rock!

I recently discovered the Hub TV network on Comcast and it's been dominating my late night television watching. This network has all the classic shows from my childhood and even a few from before my time. Those who know me personally know that in addition to being an alcoholic, I'm also an overgrown, man-child who watches far too much television. I discovered this station by accident, although some might call it fate, one night when I was searching for low-grade television to entertain me. I caught the end of the Transformers cartoon and I've been hooked ever since. Here's a list of the Hub's classic lineup:

Cartoons
-Batman (Old school and new school)
-My Little Pony (Don't judge me, I have an older sister)
-Pound Puppies
-Conan The Adventurer
-G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero (classic and new)
-Transformers (classic and new)

TV Shows
-Batman (Adam West and spelled-out sound effects (Pow, Biff, Boom) in all its glory)
-The Wonder Years
-Family Ties (Sha la la la)
-Happy Days
-Doogie Howser, M.D.
-Laverne & Shirley

Literally every time AG leaves the room, even for a second, I'll change the channel to the Hub and soak up all the classic television I can before she returns and forces me to change it back to non-Hub stuff (read: crap). Hey, it's her fault for dating a man-child in the first place (cradle robber). However, in a twist of fate, I happened to change the channel at the most perfect moment. When AG returned from her 30-second trip to the kitchen, Fraggle Rock was on. She couldn't say no to some Fraggle Rock. Finally, Hub was getting the recognition it deserved. So much so that AG requested I start recording Fraggle Rock. Sounds like winning to me. In honor of AG's conversion to a Hub network fan, enjoy a clip from the show that made it possible:

It makes you miss the 80s a little, doesn't it? Well, before we even discovered Hub TV network and got hooked on Fraggle Rock all over again, we were professing our love of this Henson classic from the very beginning.
