The Doozers

Tiny, industrious builders who work all day, every day!

About the Doozers

The Doozers are a species of tiny, green, industrious creatures who stand only about 6 inches tall. They wear construction helmets and work clothes, and they love to build more than anything in the world.

Doozers spend their days constructing elaborate crystalline structures made from radishes. The amazing part? These beautiful constructions are meant to be eaten by the Fraggles! If the Fraggles didn't eat the Doozer structures, the Doozers would have nowhere left to build, which demonstrates the perfect ecosystem of Fraggle Rock.

Doozer Facts

  • Stand only 6 inches tall
  • Build structures from radishes
  • Work 24/7 and love it
  • Opposite of Fraggles in work ethic
  • Depend on Fraggles eating their work

The Architect

The Gorgs

The "royal family" of giants who tend the garden

About the Gorgs

The Gorgs are a family of giant humanoid creatures who live in a castle in a garden adjacent to Fraggle Rock. They believe themselves to be the King and Queen of the Universe and their son to be the Crown Prince—though in reality, they may be the last of their species.

The Gorgs maintain an enormous garden where they grow radishes, which the Fraggles "steal" and the Doozers use for building. Junior Gorg spends much of his time trying (and failing) to catch the "Fwaggle" pests who raid the garden.

The Gorgs

Pa Gorg

The self-proclaimed King who rules with bluster but has a kind heart beneath his gruff exterior. Deeply devoted to his wife and son.

Ma Gorg

Queen of the Universe

The practical and resourceful Queen who often has to manage both her husband and son. Loves her radish garden dearly.

Junior Gorg

Crown Prince

The gentle giant son who befriends the Fraggles (especially Red) and learns that kindness is more important than catching "pests."
