AIBU (maybe..) to ask for your help naming a 90s/00s tv show

So... my sister has asked me to help her remember a tv show she remembers us watching when we were younger. The descriptions are pretty vague so not expecting miracles but here goes..

What she remembers.. (potentially)

  • Cartoon, maybe green, lived underground. The beginning showed you them and they went underground and it was like a village underground and they all lived under there in their own houses.
Late 90s-early 00s. They had little doors under the ground where they lived into their own houses type thing. They were like an animated animal things. I feel like they were small animals/animal families not big animals.

If anybody can shed any light/give any ideas we'd be very appreciative 😂

Secret World of Og? Made in the 80s but may have been shown later

Never mind that might have been just one episode with the green things now I'm googling

It's probably too early (1980s), but sounds like Fraggle Rock.

Potentially.. she doesn't think there were any humans in it. I initially thought she meant dinosaur.. but that last aired in 94 which is a bit too early i think!

Fraggle rock? Jim Henson puppets, not cartoon per se, but underground.

I remember a show with animals underground, they lived in the sewers under a hotel, each animal had their own pipe as a home, don't remember what it was called though. That was mid 90s
Get her to look at this list, see if her show is on it m.imdb.com/list/ls001838596/

wonderpants · 28/12/2020 07:40

My first thought was Fimbles and/or Roly Mo.

RedLimoncello · 28/12/2020 07:43

I was going to suggest gummi bears too!

ElizaLaLa · 28/12/2020 07:46

Not trap door?

yawnsvillex · 28/12/2020 08:02

Gummi Bears

geekone · 28/12/2020 08:07

Fungus the bogeyman was 2004.

PseudoBadger · 28/12/2020 08:10

The Dreamstone?

geekone · 28/12/2020 08:12

Or maybe trapdoor

namechange7438 · 28/12/2020 08:14

It wasn't the littl' bits was it?

I think that was too early though

DodoApplet · 28/12/2020 08:18

Wrong era completely, but perhaps a rerun of The Clangers?
