The Television Show
Deep in the heart of the Tiny Universe lies the Home Planet where the main characters, Bing and Bong, make their home. These two explorers are catapulted to the surrounding worlds in their solar system on a fluffy white sofa where they explore, learn about the inhabitants, grow friendships and have fun.
Each episode encourages young children to make their own discoveries as they solve problems. The program’s aim is to help children examine how things work, strengthen their observation skills, consider underlying relationships and identify and test new ideas. Each 'silent' episode tells a simple tale that children can watch by themselves and understand. The website is designed to be an extension of the videos and allows parents to access hand-on learning activities, lesson plans and Explore page to complement each episode.

Famous quotes containing the words television and/or show:
“Anyone afraid of what he thinks television does to the world is probably just afraid of the world.”
—Clive James (b. 1939)
“A cultivated style would be like a mask. Everybody knows it’s a mask, and sooner or later you must show yourself—or at least, you show yourself as someone who could not afford to show himself, and so created something to hide behind.... You do not create a style. You work, and develop yourself; your style is an emanation from your own being.”
—Katherine Anne Porter (1890–1980)
