I don't like the redesign either, but after I heard the producers explain why I kind of understand it? Mokey was always meant to be older than her friends, and you can see that through her design. She's much bigger, she has live hands, softer eyes, a grandma style cardigan, and more muted colors. When they pitched a reboot, Apple TV thought that Mokey looked a little too old (i disagree, but whatever). They wanted her to feel less like the other characters' mom and more childlike. That's why they turned up the saturation, changed her hair, gave her rod arms, and a new costume (I actually do really like her necklace with all the little trinkets on it I think that's cute)
Once again, I much prefer the original Mokey. She's soft and sweet, and I just want to give her a hug. I understand why they had to give her a redesign, I just wish it wasn't so dramatic of a change. She doesn't really look like Mokey anymore and that's sad.
I still love the new show. I think it's really amazing and it keeps the spirit of the original show. I'm excited for season 2.
Okay I’m going to bitch about the Fraggle Rock reboot and how much I hate the way the redesigned Mokey
DISCLAIMER: if you like or even live the reboot, that’s so so valid and I love that for you. I’m not here to tell you what and what not to enjoy. Love what you love. Live your best life
That being said
and can’t stand the reboot’s redesign of Mokey. Now, I haven’t seen the reboot, and I don’t plan too. But there’s just one thing that makes me fucking furious, and that’s Mokey’s redesign.
I hate it.
“But Zeke, “hate” is a strong word, you can’t find it that bad can you?”
I can and I will. as far as I’m concerned, that isn’t Mokey. Mokey would NEVER look like that. NEVER.
this redesign doesn’t even look like her! If I didn’t know better I’d think it was a completely different character! They took everything I loved about Mokey and ruined it
The colors are the most egregious to me. They took Mokey’s soft pastel colors and cranked up the saturation. And they don’t even look good together, they aren’t even appealing.
and like. She doesn’t even fit in with her friends anymore, she sticks out like a sore thumb. OG Mokey fit right in, but Reboot Mokey just doesn’t. She feels like she’s from a different show.
AND NO ONE ELSE GOT REDESIGNED, SO WHY DID MOKEY??? HER DESIGN WAS JUST FINE
secondly they gave her a dress and that makes me want to maim someone. I LIKED HER WIZARD CARDIGAN. SHE LOOKED NONBINARY AND AS A NONBINARY PERSON I LIKED THAT A LOT. It’s like they gave her a dress to say “look she’s a girl. Because girls wear dresses. And so she has to wear one”. I know Nonbinary people can wear dresses but it just feels weird to me as a nonbinary person who relates a lot to Mokey and gets dysphoria from dresses.
also they took away the stoned wizard vibe of the og and made her look like a TikTok white girl and I HATE IT. Mokey is a stoner wizard, not a TikTok girl.
and if you look at the redesign you would never in a million years guess what her personality was supposed to be. She looks like a peppy cottagecore type, not her actual dreamy artist with an egotistical streak. And that’s bad character design imo. You can tell everyone’s personality by looking at them EXCEPT FOR HER. OG Mokey looked like she would be dreamy and artistic, and she IS.
All in all they took away every design element that made Mokey,, Mokey and it makes me so fucking mad so I have done what I must and said “the reboot isn’t Fraggle Rock. It isn’t part of the series I love. It’s its own thing, NOT Fraggle Rock” because im not letting it get in the way of enjoying Fraggle Rock.
(Deep breath) it’s not very good. I don’t like it
Thanks for reading my unhinged rant 👍
god she is always serving cunt.
The news has been spreading across social media over the past few days, with several news outlets misgendering and deadnaming the victim. I have seen a small handful of posts about the entire thing, but only a couple with any sources about what happened.
I spent the morning combing through articles. This is a list of publications reporting on the story that don't deadname Nex:
Pgh Lesbian Correspondents: "Grieving Nex Benedict: the Brutal Killing of 16 Year Old Nonbinary Student in an Oklahoma High School"
The Pride: "Non-Binary Student Dies After Violent Bathroom Fight at Owasso High School in Oklahoma"
The Washington Blade: "Nonbinary Okla. High School Student Dies After Fight"
The Los Angeles Blade: "Oklahoma Non-Binary High Schooler Dies After Physical Alteraction"
LGBTQ Nation: "Teen Beaten to Death in a School Bathroom Bullying Attack. The School Didn't Call an Ambulance."
Freedom Oklahoma: "Rest in Power Nex Benedict"
Indy 100: "Thousands Raised for Non-Binary Teenager Beaten to Death at School"
The Independent: "Oklahoma Banned Trans Students From Bathrooms. Now a Bullied Student is Dead After a Fight."
Daily Dot: "Oklahoma's Top Education Official Called Out Over Libs of TikTok Ties After Non-Binary Student Beaten at School, Dies Later"
Daily Kos: "Libs of TikTok Targeted a District, Then a Non-Binary Student Was Killed on Campus"
Malang Post: "Owasso High School Mourns Pupil's Death After Altercation"
So, fun fact, I was lucky enough to be one of the ten random winners to receive a signed copy of The Book of Bill from donating in Alex Hirsch’s recent charity livestream for the LA Fires! The book has made it safely to Australia and you guys when I told you I SCREAMED
LOOK AT HIM!!!
For context, in my donation message I had asked for Ford's reaction to Indigenous Australian folklore! The bunyip is a creature that is said to live in swamps, billabongs, creeks, and waterholes. There are many different descriptions of what the bunyip may look like, and in some stories they are described as a man-hunting creature that would lurk in bodies of water, waiting for their prey to come close to the water's edge.
I'm so thankful for Alex for drawing this as I certainly wasn't expecting it!!! Also, don't forget that the GoFundMe for the LA Wildfire Relief Fund is STILL ACCEPTING DONATIONS at the time of writing this post, so please consider donating if you are able to <3
