I love the character/puppet designs. What a great show. I would've loved it if it had been on when i was a kid.

Something I find interesting is how PBS pretty much ignores this series for its PBS Kids digital lineup, but syndicates stuff like Caillou & Peg + Cat, which I consider to be the exact opposite of quality programming. I'm guessing the syndication rights for the books might be a barrier, but I don't know.

Cliff Hanger was my favorite segment. Cliff Hanger, hanging on a cliff, and that's why they call him Cliff Hanger. Can't...hold...on...much...LONGER!

Watched this a few times when babysitting younger cousins and loved it. I wish the other MPB kids show still existed. Was called Tomes and Talismens. Set in the future on a barren earth. It was made to teach kids the Dewey decimal system. We would see one episode a week at school when I was in 3rd grade. But never got to see the final episode. The MPB YouTube channel uploaded the first episode. I contacted them and was told that one episode is all they have. Was going to contact the librarians at my elementary school,but the school was shut down 7 years ago. I love lots of people have this idea that MS is a state full of stupid hicks. But so many incredibly talented people are from MS. Like Hensen,piles of blues artists and the director of the Penitentiary series. |

They have too many new shows in production to keep old ones in the lineup. |
