Wonder Pets

***Wonder Pets!*** is an American animated children's television series created by Josh Selig for Nickelodeon's Nick Jr. block. It centers on a trio of classroom pets—Linny the guinea pig, Tuck the turtle, and Ming-Ming the duckling—who use teamwork to help animals in need. Much of the characters' dialogue is sung in the style of operetta.[4] Each episode is set to original music by a 10-member live orchestra.

Selig developed the idea for *Wonder Pets!* in between production cycles of his previous Nickelodeon show, *Oobi*. The series began with two animated shorts called "Linny the Guinea Pig," which acted as a pilot episode. They featured Linny going on adventures set to classical music.[5] Selig first screened the shorts at the wrap party for *Oobi*'s first season. The crew of *Oobi* was impressed with them and urged Selig to pitch them to a broadcast network. He eventually decided to send the shorts to Nickelodeon executives. Selig called Nickelodeon "a great partner," saying "They're really the company that first believed in us when we pitched *Oobi*, and then they believed in us again on *Wonder Pets!*."[6]

The two original shorts were completed and aired in 2004.[7] The characters of Tuck and Ming-Ming were added to form a team of hero pets for the full-length series. The first long-form episode debuted on March 3, 2006,[2] as part of the Nick Jr. block on Nickelodeon. On December 27, 2006, the series started airing on Nickelodeon's sister channel Noggin.

Oobi

***Oobi*** is an American children's television series created by Josh Selig for Nickelodeon and its sister channel Noggin. The show's concept is based on a training method used by puppeteers, in which they use their hands and a pair of glass eyes instead of a full puppet. The main character is a bare hand puppet named Oobi. The show's first season was a series of two-minute shorts. For its second and third seasons, it became a long-form series, with episodes lasting 13 minutes each. The show premiered in 2000, and the last new episode aired on February 11, 2005.[2]

Selig was a longtime writer and performer for *Sesame Street*, and he came up with the idea for *Oobi* while watching bare-handed puppeteers audition for *Sesame Street*. The show was filmed at Kaufman Astoria Studios, where *Sesame Street* is also taped. All of the show's puppeteers were veteran Muppet performers. The main characters were played by Tim Lagasse, Stephanie D'Abruzzo, Noel MacNeal, and Tyler Bunch.

The puppets' designs include glass eyes and accessories such as hats and hairpieces. The puppeteers' thumbs are used to represent mouth movement, and their fingers flutter and clench to indicate emotions. The characters talk in simple sentences, using only two to three words at a time. The show's ending credits feature a montage of families making and playing with their own bare-hand Oobi puppets.

*Oobi* was a breakout success for Noggin. It received positive reviews from critics, with praise for the puppeteers' performances, the visual style, and the show's appeal toward multiple age groups. *The Age* reported that the show developed a strong cult following[3] among older viewers, and Noel MacNeal has said that the show's fans range from amateur puppeteers to "college-age stoners."[4] The show received a variety of awards, including from the Television Academy and Parents' Choice. *Oobi* had a Nielsen rating of 2.35 among Noggin viewers by 2004, becoming the highest-rated series ever to air on Noggin. It is the most widely distributed Noggin show, having aired in over 23 markets worldwide by 2005.

The series was initially telecast in black and white, but was later colorized for rebroadcasts; these colorized episodes began airing in 1965 on CBS and have since aired at various intervals on other stations.[2]

The series rode the momentum of creator Ross Bagdasarian Sr.'s original hit musical gimmick and developed the singing Chipmunk trio as rambunctious kids–particularly the show's namesake star–whose mischief contrasted to his tall, brainy brother Simon and his chubby, gluttonous brother Theodore, as well as their long-suffering, perpetually put-upon manager-father figure, David Seville.[3] The animation was produced by Herbert Klynn's Format Films. The pilot episode, an early version of the fifth episode "Good Neighbor",[4] was written and produced to sell the show to CBS.[5] The actual show featured a re-worked version, which aired as part of the fifth episode.

The show was followed in 1983 by another Chipmunks series, *Alvin and the Chipmunks*.

It is a spin-off of *Sesame Street* hosted by Bert, Ernie, Grover, and Prairie Dawn. The series' backgrounds and animated elements were made by Nickelodeon Digital[1] in New York City. Nickelodeon and Sesame developed the show to expand on *Sesame Street* by directly encouraging young viewers to interact with the characters. To do this, they combined classic *Sesame Street* footage with new segments, where the hosts invite preschoolers to join them in games.

The show was in development since 1999, when the Jim Henson Company still co-owned the rights to the *Sesame* characters. To start production, Nickelodeon had to seek approval from Henson. *Kidscreen* reported that "the series marks the first time a State-side entity other than Sesame Workshop has been given permission by Henson to use the *Sesame Street* Muppets."[3] Noggin shot footage of the characters on a green screen, and animators at Nick Digital added in new graphics. Many of the background designs in *Play with Me Sesame* were simultaneously used in Nickelodeon's Moose and Zee interstitials.

*Play with Me Sesame* premiered on April 1, 2002 and ran for three seasons. The show was heavily linked with Noggin's website, Noggin.com, and it featured a regular segment where computer games from Noggin were played. Nickelodeon extensively promoted the show across all of their networks, using a musical infomercial sung by Grover. Noggin also launched a live show, called *Noggin's Play with Me Sesame Mall Tour*, across the United States. At its launch, it was announced that *Play with Me Sesame* would continue to be produced for Noggin through 2009,[4] but the show instead wrapped in 2007. The last new episode aired on September 2, 2007.

The show was based on the 1988 short film *Peep and the Big Wide World* (of the same name) produced by the National Film Board of Canada, which itself is based on the 1962 short film *The Peep Show*,[4] also produced by the National Film Board of Canada. The series premiered on April 12, 2004, on Discovery Kids and on TLC as part of their *Ready Set Learn* children's block, and on the same day on TVOKids and PBS Kids.

Noddy’s Toyland Adventures

***Noddy's Toyland Adventures*** is a British-American-Canadian children's television program that was broadcast from September 1992 until April 1993 and December 1994, and again in 2000 on the BBC. It was produced by Cosgrove Hall Films in stop-motion animation.[1]

The show featured the memorable voice acting talents of voice actors and television writers Susan Sheridan and Jimmy Hibbert[2] (both of whom also worked on the version of *The Little Polar Bear* for the United Kingdom, as well as the later 'also Cosgrove Hall produced' television series *The Animal Shelf*), with every episode being written by Julia and Chris Allen respectively during its broadcast run. The composer Paul K. Joyce sings the theme song to this series.

It follows the adventures of Noddy, a little wooden doll who lives in Toyland with his red and yellow taxi, often trying to make sixpence or getting himself in trouble. His best friends Big Ears, Mr. Plod and Tessie Bear are always ready to lend a hand, especially when he gets tricked by Gobbo and Sly, the wicked Goblins. Whatever the situation the episode mostly ends with Noddy laughing and nodding his head which makes the bell on his hat ring.

Episodes of this series aired in Canada and the United States as part of a full thirty-minute program titled "Noddy" which featured the original UK animations re-dubbed with North American voices, which were shown in between all new live action segments. Paul K. Joyce's soundtrack was replaced by a new score by Stacey Hersh, who also scored the live action part of the series. Nashville-based songwriter Dennis Scott composed 99 new songs for the live action segments, including the theme song. Several of the re-dubbed Noddy animations were also released on VHS by Universal under USA Home Entertainment and PolyGram Video. These videos also featured songs written by Stacey Hersh and co-writer Ari Posner. This new series aired in the United Kingdom in 1999, under the title "Noddy in Toyland" (not to be confused with the show from 2009);[3] the original British sound-track was used, but the live action segments were unaltered.

In 2020, the complete series of Noddy's Toyland Adventures has been added onto NBCUniversal's more recent streaming service, Peacock and Apple TV.
