***Dr. Beanson*** is a 1996 American animated show created by Robert Stainton. It is the first spin-off of *Greeny Phatom*. It first premiered on August 13, 1996, and ended it's original 4-season run on November 15, 2000, where as the series had two reruns, one from 1996-1998, and two, from 2000. 3 specials and a direct-to-video film (which was incomplete) were also produced during the series run.

The episode production length was from the release of Greeny Phatom, to around mid 1999. During it’s initial run, 104 episodes were produced, but only 78 were aired in its initial run on Fox Kids.

This time, the producers received financial support and were joined in production by the Chinese studio Shanghai Animation Film Studio. Once again, the Children's Television Workshop and CINAR were involved in the series.

While the show premiered on the same day Season 2 of it's predecessor aired, it was combined into a hour-long marathon called *The Greeny Phatom/Dr. Beanson Super Duper Happy Fun Time Hour!*. Because of the series low ratings, it was removed from Fox Kids lineup shortly after the end of Season 3.

While the fourth season aired originally on UPN, due to a large amount of demand to finish the series broadcast by the producers, the series was brought back onto Fox Kids on September 1, 2000, starting with the series' first special. On November 15, 2000, the series had 4 seasons, a total of 104 episodes, 3 specials, and 2 reruns. Because of them having low ratings, Fox stopped broadcasting Dr. Beanson on September 13, 2001.

## Reception

The critics gave it a few positive reviews, saying that the plot is good, but the character designs are somewhat negative and it also lacked a huge cast of characters. Some gave it average reviews because of the plot being OK, and more. The show managed to keep decent ratings due to hype in Season 1, though in Season 2 ratings plummeted, and by Season 3 it was had some of the lowest ratings on Fox Kids at that point. When it premiered Season 4 on UPN, it was the lowest rated children’s programme on the channel, though it’s Season 4 run on Fox Kids did attract attention, and had better ratings than Season 3 and most of Season 2.
