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:
“The television critic, whatever his pretensions, does not labour in the same vineyard as those he criticizes; his grapes are all sour.”
—Frederic Raphael (b. 1931)
“When the spirit brings light into our minds, it dispels darkness. We see it, as we do that of the sun at noon, and need not the twilight of reason to show it us. This light from heaven is strong, clear, and pure carries its own demonstration with it; and we may as naturally take a glow-worm to assist us to discover the sun, as to examine the celestial ray by our dim candle, reason.”
—John Locke (1632–1704)
