Teletubbies

Teletubbies is a British children's television series created by Ragdoll Production, Anne Wood and Andrew Davenport for the BBC. The programme focuses on four multi-coloured creatures known as "Teletubbies", named after the television screens implanted in their abdomens. Recognised throughout popular culture for the uniquely shaped antenna protruding from the head of each character, the Teletubbies communicate through gibberish and were designed to bear resemblance to toddlers.

Though the original run ended in 2001, a reboot was ordered in 2014. It premiered on CBeebies in the United Kingdom and on Nick Jr. in the United States. Re-runs of the original 1997 series continue to be shown on relevant television channels worldwide.

The original series returned to live TV in the US on Pluto TV on 1 May 2019, but the episodes are shown in the UK format instead of the US format. The same format occurred with the series' availability on the Noggin app since 25 May 2016.
