It's a new network premiering in October that's replacing Discovery Kids channel. It's chocked full of remakes of shows from the 80's. Transformers Prime, G.I Joe, My Little Pony, Pound Puppies, and Strawberry Shortcake amongst others.

Also on the network will be Fraggle Rock. I don't know if this is new or the old show. Either way it'll be awesome.

Fraggle Rock was made in England. Jerry Nelson just gave Gobo a decidedly Canadian accent to add an international appeal.

From Wikipedia

Fraggle Rock made its debut on January 10, 1983 and the final episode aired on March 30, 1987 — after four seasons and a total of 96 episodes. A co-production between former British ITV production-company Television South (TVS), the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, United States pay-television service Home Box Office and Henson Associates (later Jim Henson Productions), the show was filmed on a Toronto sound stage, (later at Elstree Studios, London). The avant-garde poet bpNichol worked as one of the show's writers. In the early days of development, the script called Fraggles "Woozles" pending the devising of a more suitable name.

Oh, right. I believe so. Still, the majority was made-in-England. That's what I thought you were mistaken about.
