Morris Fraggle

Morris Fraggle is a background Fraggle on Fraggle Rock. His performer, Terry Angus, gave Morris glasses so that he could more easily locate himself in the monitors during filming. (He makes an appearance without glasses in "We Love You, Wembley," playing the saxophone.) He had minor speaking lines in the episodes "New Trash Heap in Town" and "Gobo's School for Explorers."
Angus originally conceived of Morris as "a cub reporter for the Fraggle news. So in the "Marooned" episode, check his pocket and you'll see that he has a pad in his pocket. It wasn't long that I had dropped the reporter idea and he was just my own background character."
In an interview about Morris, Angus joked that yes, he did perform a boy on the show. Angus and Karen Prell would also joke that Morris was the (presumably illegitimate) son of the Storyteller Fraggle and Traveling Matt.
Angus is in possession of a Morris puppet that he made himself.Cameron's Nostalgia Podcast: Episode #3 13:10 mark
