Harry and His Bucket Full of Dinosaurs

***Harry and His Bucket Full of Dinosaurs*** is a series of children's books written and drawn by Ian Whybrow and Adrian Reynolds. The series is about a five-year-old boy named Harry, who has a bucket full of six dinosaurs named Taury, Trike, Patsy, Pterence, Sid, and Steggy. In the books the dinosaurs talk to Harry but seem to be toys to the other characters. The other main characters are Mom, Nana, Harry's best friend Charlie and Harry's sister Sam.

It was later adapted into a British-Canadian 104-episode animated television series of the same name, which premiered on Teletoon in Canada on March 28, 2005 and ended in 2008. It was a co-production between CCI Releasing in Canada and Collingwood O'Hare Entertainment Ltd. in the United Kingdom, in association with Discovery Kids Latin America, Teletoon (Season 1), Treehouse TV (Season 2), Cartoon Network, Super RTL (Season 1), Channel 5 Broadcasting Limited (Season 2), and Playhouse Disney UK. In the TV series Harry plays with the dinosaurs by jumping into the bucket, which transports him to another world, called **DinoWorld**. Although the dinosaurs are toy-sized in the real world, within DinoWorld they become dinosaur-sized, while Harry retains his actual size. The TV episodes are available on DVD in two volumes.

Recently, it was announced that the show would have a series of apps for the iOS and Android platform and will include some interactive elements.

In the US, Cartoon Network aired the series as part of its short-lived Tickle-U block. Reruns of the series aired on Qubo from June 30, 2012, to December 25, 2020.

## Development

Development for the series started in 2001, under the book's American title of *Sammy and the Dinosaurs*, as a co-production with Catalyst Entertainment and Gullane Entertainment, where the latter would have full distribution rights. By 2003, the then-merged CCI Entertainment ended their partnership with HIT Entertainment (who purchased Gullane back in October 2002) and re-acquiring its library. The series then was renamed to its original name, and was announced that CCI would co-produce the series with Collingwood O'Hare Entertainment.

## Episode list

Episode titles for season one are taken directly from the episodes. Episode titles for season two are taken from the official Harry and His Bucket Full of Dinosaurs website. There are a number of differences between the actual titles and the titles as listed on the website. In all of the episodes, the words spoken by the dinosaurs or Harry are the title of the episode.
