Johnny and the Sprites

2007–2008 · 3 seasons

A gentle, song-filled playdate with friendly puppet creatures, all warmth and simple lessons.

Overview: The show follows main character Johnny (a songwriter), as he moves into a house given to him by his great-uncle. There, he discovers little magical creatures simply known as "sprites", who introduce him to their fantasy world. In return, Johnny shows the sprites what it's like to be human, often teaching them (and the viewer) an important life lesson.
How it feels: Warm, whimsical, light and earnest. Measured and fine in the background.

Content: No violence, gore, sexual content or swearing.
