Madeline

Show Summary

In an old house in Paris that was covered with vines, lived twelve little girls in two straight lines... the smallest one was Madeline. First aired in the early 90's, Madeline is a 30-minute animated feature based on the books by Ludwig Bemelmans. The show basically features the adventures of Madeline, her friends, Miss Clavel and Pepito. Each episode spots them going on adventure, and an original song. The original "Madeline" was a production from 1952 that was shown as an animated opener in movie theaters. The next 6 were television specials that were the work of Cinar animation. "Madeline" was picked up as a regular series in 1993 on The Family Channel. Production of episodes was moved to DiC studios. The series ran for 2 seasons during that time. In 2000, the show came back, now running as "The New Adventures Of Madeline". Many of the episodes are available on video and DVDs, and music from selected episodes of the show is available on the CDs "Madeline's Favorite Songs", "Hats off to Madeline" and "Sing-A-Long With Madeline". ©1988 DIC Entertainment, L.P.; © 1989 Cinar VIII And Company, L.P. © 1993, 1995 DIC Entertainment, L.P.

    This rocks! Note to Minotoro_Luver: This show didn't air on PBS Kids (They don't have the channel In my country but I still know).

    I really really love Madeline and her school friends. The girls are so cute;-) Miss Clavel is Madeline's teacher and usually tries to get the girls out of trouble. Pepito is a friend which was naughty but got taught on how to be a good friend. Madeline makes it fun for kids to learn lessons like about Good Manners and that company is what counts most. I also love how there is only one song per episode so it focuses young ones on the story of the show more. Madeline is a classic that i will always love.moreless
  • One of the best Y rated shows I ever watched while growing up.

    One time when I was little, I started watching Disney every morning and this was one of the first shows I ever saw on it and it became my favorite show until I got older and started watching Cartoon Network again and the Powerpuff Girls became my new favorite (but I still really liked this show). Each episode has a very enjoyable and exciting plot that kids will really enjoy. The season 3 episodes have more moralty to them and I think it's very good that they added some moralty since it helps kids learn stuff. The books are very good too and they where the very first books I ever read to myself as a little kid since I loved the show alot. To this day, this show is still my favorite show meant for little kids and I kind of wish that it would have had 3 more seasons or more since 6 or more is how many seasons I think each good show should have. I defenitly recommand this show for any little kid. I'm glad that DIC decided to adapt the books as an animation and create more stories. They did a perfect job and I think this is one of DIC's best shows ever.moreless

  • Childhood staple

    This was one of my favorites when I was little. I was totally into it. I never learned all twelve of the girls' names, though. They should've done something about that, but at least they didn't all look the same. I'm glad they still air old shows like this. The remakes are horrible.
