Gerald McBoing-Boing
Gerald McBoing-Boing is a Canadian-American 2D animated children's television series based on the original cartoon character. It premiered on Cartoon Network on August 22, 2005, as part of their Tickle-U programming block, and on Teletoon in English and French on August 29, 2005. The show retains the original's art style but with added detail. Each 11-minute episode consists of a series of vignettes featuring Gerald, with the "fantasy tales" presented in Seussian rhyme. The episodes also include sound checks, gags, and "real-life" segments. Gerald remains a non-speaking character, but is now accompanied by two speaking friends, Janine and Jacob, as well as a dog named Burp, who only burps. Gerald's parents also appear regularly in the series. The show was produced in Canada by Cookie Jar Entertainment, directed by Robin Budd, and story edited and written by John Derevlany. Animation was handled by Mercury Filmworks in Ottawa and Vancouver. The music and score were composed by Ray Parker and Tom Szczesniak. The series is also broadcast on ABC TV in Australia, Channel 5's Milkshake! in the UK, and RTE Two's The Den in Ireland.
