User blog:Nephelodeon/Preschool Shows Reimagined as Slightly Darker Movies

The title says it all. Basically, I take various preschool shows (Dora, Blue's Clues, etc.) and try rebooting them as Hollywood-worthy movies. This is just for fun, so I apologize in advance if I unintentionally ruined your childhood.

Dora the Explorer - Dora Marquez is an adventurous archaeologist who prefers to work alone. One day, an secret organization run by her cousin Diego hires her to track down an item called the Golden Star. In addition to a backpack with plenty of equipment (including a digital map), she is also aided by a trained fighter in the form of Boots the Monkey. But a former member of the organization--known for his talent of swiping--is also hot on the trail for the Golden Star.

Blue's Clues - Detective Steve Burns and his dog Blue are amazing at what they do for a living. They have been solving cases together for years. Steve tends to keep a cool head while Blue is much more prone to anger. Despite their differences, they've proven to be an unstoppable team. However, the duo risks splitting up when Steve gets framed for murdering a cop. With days remaining before his trial, Blue's loyalty is put to the ultimate test. She must help her owner clear his name before time runs out.

Lazy Town - Somewhere in the future, there is a city unlike any other. It has been given the rather unpleasant name of Lazy Town, as very few people there do any work at all. Their ruler Robbie Rotten has been running the place for years just like his father before him and believes that forcing the citizens into laziness will prevent them from revolting. But certain people refuse to stand for this. A small band of rebellious civilians has been trying to overthrow Rotten for quite some time, but they fail more often than not. Their adolescent leader Stephanie soon finds a ray of hope when an incredibly athletic superhero named Sportacus saves her team from danger, becoming a huge target for the ruthless dictator in the process. Now this lone warrior must help the rebels take back their home.

Sesame Street - After the death of their parents, Bert and Ernie decide to leave the suburbs for a better life. They move to a new neighbourhood hoping for the best in life. But what once began as a peaceful place has been taken over by a reckless biker gang called the Blazing Jesters. Led by the maniacal Elmo, their goal is simply to run the streets. Now the other neighbours are struggling to fight back. So when Ernie volunteers himself and an unwilling Bert to become part of the resistance, it's obvious they've walked into quite the minefield. There goes the neighbourhood!

Fraggle Rock - There is an ongoing feud between two completely different species: the Fraggles and the Gorgs. They have been at war for years. Gobo, an adolescent Fraggle, has been against war from the start. But when his Uncle 'Traveling' Matt gets murdered by the King of the Gorgs, something inside of him snaps. Now Gobo plans to avenge his uncle by taking out every last Gorg, including the next one in line for the throne. But his friends Mokey, Wembley, Boober and Red fear that his mind is headed for a very dark place.

Jake and the Never Land Pirates - A young boy named Jake became an orphan thanks to the notorious Captain Hook, who kidnapped him for the sole purpose of having a protégé. Many years have passed since then and now Jake is a young man who decides that he's had enough. Late one night, he steals a map so he can find the mythical treasure of the Lost Boys. He then escapes in a rowboat only to get shipwrecked on an abandoned island. He soon runs into another pirate crew consisting of Captain Izzy, her cabin boy Cubby and her parrot Skully. He tells them about his goal and persuades them into letting him join their crew in exchange for a fair share of the treasure. But Hook is still out there, and he is determined to end Jake's life of freedom before it even begins.

Sofia the First - The people of Enchancia were very devastated ever since their queen died at sea, but no one took it harder than King Roland II. He would remain depressed for a while before falling for and eventually marrying a peasant woman named Miranda. As a result, Miranda's daughter Sofia would have to learn how to live with Roland's twin children Amber and James. But things get worse for everyone when Enchancia is suddenly cursed by an evil sorcerer. Since the parents are busy with royal duties, they give the children a special amulet that will help them find the sorcerer and defeat him. Now the adolescent royal siblings must travel through different lands all to bring peace back to their home.

Sheriff Callie's Wild West - Callie had her relationship with her boyfriend Smokey cut short because of her addiction to alcohol. Smokey would go on to become the respected sheriff of a nearby town while she became a drifter and roamed across the desert from place to place. One year later, she is approached in a bar by Peck and Toby, a pair of deputies who worked with Smokey. They inform her that he was gunned down by a cold-blooded outlaw known simply as Billy Goat the Kid. As he died in Peck's arms, his final words were, "Find Callie". Seeing this as a shot at redemption, Callie becomes the new town sheriff while helping Peck and Toby track down the one who killed Smokey.

The Backyardigans - Uniqua is the leader. Pablo is the lancer. Austin is the brains. Tasha is the peacemaker. Tyrone is the muscle. Together, the Backyardigans might just be the biggest troublemakers in the whole neighbourhood. They've caused a lot of trouble between preschool and junior high. So when they get into trouble for throwing a party that would injure their principal, Uniqua decides to make the most of the consequences so she and her friends can have the greatest summer of their young lives. The kids build a machine that can send them anywhere and let them do anything--real or not--as long as they imagine. And as long as they make the rules, they can steal, smoke, or even visit adult-friendly areas! But when their shenanigans cause their home to be infested with vicious monsters, they must put their skills to good use if they ever stand a chance of defeating them. One thing is for certain: the Backyardigans will go out in a blaze of glory!

The Berenstain Bears - The Bear family is similar to other families in several ways. They enjoy certain activities such as fishing, quilting, or simply playing around. But they're also very different, and one reason why is that they live a double life as secret agents. Their code names--as hard as it may be to believe--are 'Papa', 'Mama', 'Brother' and 'Sister'. They moved from Big Bear City to Bear Country after their last successful mission to settle down and live normal lives. But half a year later, they learn that ridiculed criminal mastermind Weasel McGreed is hiding out in Bear Country. And he has an unorthodox plan to premiere a tragedy film in cinemas worldwide causing everyone who watches it to literally cry themselves to death! Now the Bear family must suit up once again for their biggest assignment, which will undoubtedly affect the rest of the world.

Team Umizoomi - The planets were polluted with crime of all sorts until an army known as the Zoomi Cadets would rise up to eliminate it. It was created by a brilliant scientist who wished to right the wrongs in the galaxy. He even built a robot--which he nicknamed Bot--who would go on to join the team himself. Every year folks from different planets are recruited to join the army. And for the first time ever, two humans have been chosen. Milli and Geo from Umi City are two talented fighters, but as strong as they are, they are also pretty stubborn and irresponsible. Bot must somehow mould them into fearless warriors to end the crime spree.

Winnie the Pooh - Ever since Christopher Robin stopped visiting the Hundred Acre Wood, Winnie the Pooh has not been himself. He's grown bitter and remained secluded from the rest of the forest. Eventually deciding that enough time has been wasted by waiting, he takes a trip to East Sussex to live with his old friend...or maybe just tear him to pieces for rejecting him. Joining him on his journey are Piglet, Tigger, Rabbit and Eeyore. As it turns out, Christopher Robin is no longer the imaginative little kid they once knew. He's all grown up and living a surprisingly miserable life of his own. It doesn't get any better for him when the gang shows up at his doorstep. And to top it off, Pooh and his friends soon find themselves hiding from a persistent zookeeper!

Special Agent Oso - The United Network for Investigating Quite Usual Events, also known as U.N.I.Q.U.E., is a top secret organization headed by the mysterious Mr. Dos. It is dedicated to keeping the country safe from harm. Among the best in the agency is Oso, who has quite the reputation. He is a former detective with skills in martial arts and hand-to-hand combat. He's also a cocky ladies man with killer good looks. When word gets out that drugs are being smuggled across the country, Oso is assigned the task of shutting down the operation. Using a vast set of resources, he must work with fellow agents Dotty and Wolfie to track down and destroy the business of an international drug lord known as 'The Jackal.

Wallykazam! - There are many strange lands, all of which are filled with mythical creatures. There are villages for trolls, ogres, and goblins just to name a few. However, a witch named Hattie creates her own army of monsters with the intention of ruling every piece of land out there. What she didn't count on was 16-year-old Wally Trollman, the son of the most powerful wizard ever known. But when Wally tries to use his deceased father's wand to save his home, he accidentally teleports both himself and his pet dragon Norville to a completely different area. Knowing that Hattie will show no mercy whatsoever in her search for him, the teenage troll must assemble other creatures to help take back his home while also protecting the other villages from harm. He must also harness the power of the wand as his father did.

PB&J Otter - Summer is just around the corner and the residents living near Lake Hoohaw couldn't be more excited. They can go sailing, get tickets to a concert, or just sit around doing nothing. But things are apparently a little different for the Otter family. Ernest and Opal have rented a cabin located in the middle of the woods and are looking forward to spending about two months with their kids Peanut, Baby Butter, and Jelly. Because of this, the trio feels devastated at the thought of staying in an unfamiliar house far away from their friends. However, rumour has it that the cabin is haunted by the kind of stuff nightmares are made of. And PB&J will soon discover that there's more truth to the stories than anyone realizes. But will they live to tell the tale?

PJ Masks - Whenever there was a sign of criminal activity in the city, a small team of masked heroes would fight back against the darkness. They called themselves the PJ Masks and they dedicated their lives to battling injustice. Years later, retirement is in their near future so they decide to pass the mantle to the next generation. They choose Conner, Amaya and Greg: three college students with special skills and promising futures. They are given the opportunity to learn the ways of the PJ Masks and harness unlikely superpowers. Meanwhile, the son of their mentors' worst enemy has been seeking revenge on behalf of his incarcerated father. With the aid of a few mercenaries, he plans to eliminate anyone standing between him and his goal of controlling the city. And the new PJ Masks--dubbed Catboy, Owlette, and Gecko--are on his hit list.

PAW Patrol - Adventure Bay has a problem. That problem comes in the form of the PAW Patrol, a small band of thieves known for many criminal activities. It consists of the infamous Ryder and his canine compadres Marshall, Rubble, Rocky, Zuma, and Skye. They're equipped with special gadgets, vehicles and voice translators. But even the most experienced criminals make mistakes; Ryder's mistake of trusting undercover police dog Chase finally lands him behind bars. The mayor sees potential in the young outlaw and his squad of miscreants, so she offers them a deal: they help her track down another group of criminals in exchange for a shorter prison sentence. Now Ryder and the PAW Patrol--including Chase--must put their talents to good use if they wish to stay out of jail.

Octonauts - There is a legend of an extremely rare creature that dwells deep beneath the ocean. It is known as the red-eyed raptor shark. It has tormented the lives of sailors and destroyed everything in its path. Certain brave souls have tried to defeat it, but no one has been successful. It recently attacked a crew of pirates, only for first mate Kwazii to escape in one piece. The one-eyed traveler has vowed vengeance ever since. He alerts Barnacles, a grizzled sea captain who leads a team of intrepid explorers called the Octonauts. They've also been on the hunt for Red Eye and they believe that a witness is the key to finding him. The Octonauts travel with the pirate across the ocean on an expedition to slay the beast once and for all.

Super Why! - Storybook City is an interesting place to live in, as it is completely inhabited by fairytale characters. From Snow White to Sleeping Beauty, they all live here. And their stories are obviously very popular around the world. But what about the more underrated characters that no one talks about? Enter Whyatt Beanstalk, the younger brother of famous hero Jack. All he wants is a little more attention like his friends Pig, Princess Pea and Little Red Riding Hood. His wish is granted in a big way when a freak accident with Princess Pea's new magic wand gives the gang superpowers! And while they struggle to adapt to their new abilities, an evil scientist searches for the wand to make himself the most powerful man in the world. Now the fate of Storybook City rests in the hands of an unorthodox team of heroes, led by the unique Super Why!

Barney & Friends - Everyone knows about the dinosaurs that lived a very long time ago. They managed to make their mark on the planet before eventually getting wiped out. Now over 65 million years have passed, and few have thought for a moment that we would need them to return. A monstrous creature was recently spotted on the other side of the world and the people of Texas are desperate to defend themselves from impending doom. Fortunately, the government planned ahead. They used a time machine to retrieve some dinosaurs in case of an emergency. The dinosaurs have been genetically modified to speak and behave like human beings. This army of prehistoric beasts includes a pair of protoceratops, a hadrosaur and a Tyrannosaurus Rex. After being caged in labs for so long, they’ve been released to explore the cities that will need protection. But with only days left before disaster strikes, will this unusual army of dim-witted dinosaurs be enough to defeat a monster that could give Godzilla a run for his money?

Teletubbies - There was once a faraway planet inhabited by strange-looking who called themselves Teletubbies. They possessed unbelievable superpowers, but were also much too lazy to defend themselves. So when a fire-powered overlord threatened to destroy their world, they didn’t stand a chance. Tinky Winky, Dipsy, Laa-Laa and Po were the only ones left of their race, as they managed to escape in a spaceship. But seeing their home getting obliterated would change them forever. They crash landed somewhere in the United Kingdom and have since dedicated their lives to protecting the people the way they could’ve protected their friends and families. But when the overlord learns of their existence, she will stop at nothing to finish what she started.

Bubble Guppies - Gil, Molly, Deena, Oona, Goby and Nonny are a group of merpeople who lives a life of crime in the underwater city of Bubbletucky. They were once the worst at their job before getting help in the form of a mafia boss who called himself ‘The Grouper’. He taught them everything they know and treated them like family. He called them his little Bubble Guppies. They were untouchable together. But life turns sour when the Grouper gets whacked in the middle of the night by the head of a rival mob. Now with Gil leading the charge, the team seeks revenge against their mentor’s killers by any means necessary.

WordGirl - 17-year-old Becky Botsford, originally from the planet Lexicon, is unlike any other high school student in Fair City. In addition to having the entire dictionary memorized, she possesses special powers and hopes to use them only for good. Creating a second identity as fearless crime-fighter WordGirl, she and her primate partner Captain Huggy Face try to defend their new home as much as they can. At first it seems as though the city is completely danger-free, but not everything is as it seems. Becky learns of a sinister plot for world domination that is somehow connected to mind-control. Suddenly she and her sidekick are in a race against time to prevent the fate of the world from falling into the wrong hands.

Wonder Pets - A scientist has been trying for a very long time to achieve the goal of giving animals superpowers. He tested many animals, with the last victims being a guinea pig, a turtle and a duckling. Sadly, nothing seemed to work and the project was abandoned as a result. The last three animals that got tested ended up living in the forest. But a few years later as they grew up, they actually developed superpowers! The three animals see an opportunity to use their powers for good, but their actions cause them to be hated by the very people they wanted to protect. But the man that created them still believes in his literal pet projects, so when the other animals he experimented with wreak havoc on the city, he and the trio join forces to prove themselves to the world.

Between the Lions - Lionel and Leona work with their parents Theo and Cleo at the Barnaby B. Busterfield III Memorial Public Library, and they feel as though the entire world is against them. They have always been viewed as outcasts and they just want things to be different. Aside from the staff members like Heath the Thesaurus and the Information Hen, their only friends are the neighbourhood misfits Walter and Clay and Click the electronic computer mouse. When the kids learn that the place has a few hidden secrets, they set out to find as many of them as they can. However, their curiosity causes a ghost with a connection to Busterfield himself to escape from his prison. The ghost releases multiple characters—fictional or not—from the books they came from. Lionel, Leona and their parents must work with their friends and the rest of the staff to save the reputation of their library.

''Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!'' - A mysterious village known as Wuzzleburg is hidden somewhere in the middle of the forest. It is inhabited by strange creatures of all sorts. Among these hybrids is Wubbzy, a springy-tailed gerbil-like misfit who struggles to fit in with the rest of the crowd. He was separated from his family shortly after he was born and has since lived with the local technician Widget. One day, Widget decides to put an end to the mystery and help Wubbzy find out the truth. They set off on a perilous journey with their longtime friend Walden in search of the young boy’s family. But what starts off as a potential family reunion could turn into something much more dangerous.

Groundling Marsh - There is a small group of mythical creatures dwelling deep in the shadows of the forest. Known simply as the Groundlings, they have continuously traveled from place to place looking for a satisfying location to settle in. This is because every area they’ve lived in has been horribly polluted by human beings. Galileo Swampson, a courageous young elf, learns from his wise friend Eco of a magical marsh located at the far end of the forest and suggests that the Groundlings move there for safety. The creatures will face multiple dangers during their quest for freedom and will even come face to face with Hegdish Yuckywood, a long-lost Groundling who prefers to live alone. Will Galileo and his friends make it to the marsh in one piece? And can they avoid gaining attention from humans along the way?

Wimzie’s House - There is a mysterious castle located on the other side of the woods. It remained empty for years when the owner died, but is now completely inhabited by monsters. Among this family of unusual creatures is Wimzie, a young dragon/bird hybrid who longs to be just as menacing as her parents Rousso and Graziella. The only thing that seems to stand in her way is her upbeat personality. One day while her parents are on vacation, she stays home with her brother Bo and her grandmother Yaya. One walk later, they discover that a group of killers is hiding out in their home! Now the three hybrids are forced to hide in the woods, and they refuse to stand for it.

The Busy World of Richard Scarry - The name's Lowly. I'm a private investigator. My job is to keep my finger on the pulse of Busytown at all times. It's a place that truly lives up to its name. It's hard to keep track of what's going on, but I love the challenge. I've been on my own for a long time and that's the way I like it. I don't trust anyone except myself. I don't even trust the police to do their job right. But recently, I learned that I've got no choice but to do just that. A few people have been murdered over the past few weeks, and I feel as though I'm getting closer and closer to connecting them together. I know this because I'm constantly getting hunted down by a pair of vicious mercenaries. My only hope of solving this case is by teaming up with professional cop Huckle, who's trying to solve the exact same case. If there's one thing we can both agree on, it's that we can't stand each other. Huckle likes to follow the rules and I...just don't. If we don't put our differences aside, chances are we'll both find ourselves pushing up daisies. But like I said, I like the challenge.

Doki - Doki is a fearless explorer with a headstrong personality and a heart of gold. He has an undying love for adventure and has only gotten better with age.

His teammates include expert mechanic Mundi, skilled captain Oto, the sensitive Anabella, brilliant-minded Gabi and the energetic Fico. As they set out on their journey, choices will be made, risks will be taken and fists will be thrown. Surviving the trip is not 100% guaranteed, but what else is new for Doki?

Little Einsteins - Leo, Annie, June and Quincy were four expert spies on top of their game. Keyword: WERE. Times change, and after an accident that involved them in their own separate missions to catch the same target, they were all fired from the organization they worked for. They return to their regular lives, but are called back into action a year later for one reason: to track down a new threat. They are forced to work with each other--which would be easier if they didn't hold grudges against each other--and are given their own vehicle to travel in. What follows is a mission through time as they go to the past, the future and everywhere in between to regain their dignity as well as a few former agents who may or may not have been captured.

Imagination Movers - Rich Collins, Scott Durbin, Dave Poche and Scott "Smitty" Smith have been close friends for years, but some of them have been down on their luck more often than not. With the exception of Rich, they're either homeless, short on cash or just plain old stupid. They are directed to a manager who offers to make their dreams come true. He suggests that they form a band that will be remembered until the sun burns out of the sky. Dubbing themselves the Imagination Movers, they begin a slow journey to make it to the top of the world. There will be songs, tours and challenges. All the best bands go through that, so it shouldn't be anything new. Unfortunately, these guys are "special".

Max and Ruby - Max and Ruby are two siblings who have been completely different from each other for years. So it makes sense that they would go their separate ways as they reached adulthood. But while Ruby always believed that she would become the most successful person on the planet, she is instead homeless and unemployed. Meanwhile, Max just so happens to be on top of the world! He has gone on to become a brilliant inventor with a boatload of cash. When the two family members run into each other after years apart, Max hires Ruby to work with him and allows her to sleep in his house. But Ruby is overly jealous of her brother's success given that he was once an idiot, and ultimately causes a small problem behind his back. She tinkers with some of his inventions and they run amuck throughout the city! Now the pair must track down the machines while also being on the lookout for Max's competition: Louise, the head of a rival company bent on destroying his reputation.

Nature Cat - In a futuristic world where humans are no longer the dominant species, animals such as dogs and cats have taken over with technology. But with tech slowly destroying the planet, a cat named Fred begins a movement hoping to restore nature. Standing in his way is corrupted president Ronald, who has dubbed him public enemy number one. Fred is run out of town and slowly adapts to his new surroundings. A few years later, he returns to his city under the alias "Nature Cat" to get revenge on Ronald and set things right. While his mission as a solo vigilante proves to be difficult, he soon finds some help when he meets a small group of animals who support his movement and are annoyed with Ronald's tyrannical rule. These creatures include Hal, Squeeks and Daisy. They form an alliance with Nature Cat to protect him as they work together to right the wrongs of the government.

Peg + Cat - Peg is a grown woman with a brilliant mind. Accompanied by her equally intelligent pet feline, she is capable of solving even the most difficult of mathematic equations. Because of this, she has gained a lot of respect and admiration from regular citizens and police officers. Now she has been called to solve her greatest case yet. A mysterious crook has been murdering people left and right and orchestrates a plan to kill the president within only a few days. All Peg has to do to stop the scheme dead in its tracks is solve a few math problems. But the closer she gets to cracking the code, the harder it gets and the more she has to think. Can Peg prove her doubters wrong and catch the criminal before time runs out, or is her number up?

Fishtronaut - The government has always been known for keeping secrets, whether they're good or bad. One of their secrets could go either way, and it involves the existence of a mutated fish who works as a hired agent. Given the codename "Fishtronaut", he goes after anyone that is seen as a potential threat to the country. He is unfamiliar with his past and has only known one thing since his "evolvement": always be alert. But years have passed since he started working with the government, he has gone on the run after being framed for a crime he didn't commit. His only hope is to join forces with former partner/lover Marina Green and her genitically altered monkey Zeek, who are just as skilled in spy work as he is. The only problem with that idea is that they work with the Secret Environment Agency, a rival organization that operates by their own rules despite having the same goals in mind. Now Fishtronaut must search for whoever framed him while also putting his trust in Marina and Zeek.

Timothy Goes to School - A year after graduating from Hilltop School, Timothy gets an invitation to a big school reunion in honor of his old teacher Mrs. Jenkins. When he gets there, he is greeted by all of his old classmates, including his crush Yoko, his archrival Claude, class clowns Frank and Frank, the bashful Charles, the boisterous Nora, the fashionable Grace, the brilliant Fritz, forgetful Lilly, and goofy brute Doris. Everyone meets up to talk about what they did over the past year, but who has the best story to tell? What kind of project did Fritz help the government with? Why did Lilly get in trouble with the law? How did Nora help Charles escape his comfort zone? But an important mystery still remains: who sent the invitations and why are they running so late?

Vampirina - A young woman named Vee has a dark secret that she struggles to keep hidden from everyone: she is secretly a vampire from Transylvania. The only ones who have known about this were the rest of her family, who were also vampires. They're no longer with her after some vampire-hunters got to them, and as a result her only friend is a ghost named Demi. Looking for a new life and new people to meet, Vee moves to Pennsylvania and tries to fit in with human beings. Her behavior gathers the attention of Detective Poppy Peepleson, who is convinced that she's hiding something. Despite having Demi to keep her secret safe, the truth about Vee is bound to come out sooner rather than later when creatures from the underworld rise up from the grave to wreak havoc on the city. Vee must embrace her inner vampire and go on the hunt to protect the very humans that made her life miserable.

Pinky Dinky Doo - Pinky Dinky Doo is a "special" kind of person. She's capable of telling the strangest stories ever, and they always have a way of coming to life. She first discovered this power not too long ago when she told her little brother Tyler a bedtime story. Thankfully, nothing bad happened that day. However, as time went on, Pinky began to use these abilities for her own personal gain while hiding them from her parents. And it wasn't long before her newfound talents created something terrible under her nose. Now Pinky, accompanied by Tyler and their pet guinea pig (who talks because of her powers), will have to deal with a creation of hers that could potentially destroy everything and everyone she holds dear. Can she get a hold of her powers and unleash her imagination?

Dragon Tales - Emmy and Max are a pair of siblings who just don't get along. Emmy has a wild imagination and an outgoing personality. Max has neither of those things. They constantly argue from time to time and their parents struggle to maintain the peace. One day in their new house, they find a mysterious dragon scale inside an unknown case and it changes their lives forever. Upon reading an ancient text that was also in the case, Emmy and Max are transported to a land of mythology and magic. Dubbed simply as Dragon Land, many dragons reside in said area, including a small group of heroes bent on protecting their home. This group consists of powerful Ord, sharp-witted Cassie, and the conjoined duo of pessimistic Zak and optomistic Wheezie. They have gone on a mission to find Quetzel, their wise old leader who was taken by a threat unlike any other. With Quetzel being their best chance at finding a way home, Emmy and Max must fly with the dragons in order to achieve their goal.

Stanley - For thousands of years, a mysterious book unlike any other has existed. It is referred to as the Great Big Book of Everything and contains information on every single topic known to man. It can only be entrusted to the smartest, wisest and bravest people. And in present day, it has landed in the hands of a boy named Stanley Griff. He is fascinated with learning new things, so the book quickly becomes his most prized possession. But such a powerful item can also cause problems, as is the case when Stanley's big brother Lionel gets stuck in the book! Now Stanley and his pets must take a long journey through the book to find Lionel, but they will definitely run into all sorts of obstacles along the way.

Caillou - Rosie was always destined for greatness ever since she was born, and she is bent on making a name for herself. She has her own house, her own job, and a scholarship. But she never forgot where she came from. She always finds the time to talk with her parents, and they've always been proud of her. But there is one thing they want from her that she never wanted to do: get back in touch with her older brother Caillou. Now Caillou was a special guy in a different way. That's just a friendly way of saying he was an unlucky idiot. As a kid, he whined, he threw fits and he didn't always make the best decisions. And life hasn't gotten any better for him as an adult. He's now addicted to alcohol and at times has contemplated suicide. Rosie sees that her brother is a wreck and decides to help him get his life back on track, hoping that they can rekindle their broken relationship. Can the two siblings somehow help each other, or will Caillou's shenanigans only bring him and Rosie--and any innocent bystander--even closer to death?

Fifi and the Flowertots - Once upon a time, there was a beautiful forest inhabited by a bunch of colorful characters. The head honcho goes by the name of Fifi. She is often cheerful, friendly and eager to please. She always tries to look on the bright side, but sometimes life can't be viewed as a simple fairy tale. When the forest is completely destroyed by humans, Fifi is forced to learn how to toughen up. The world can be a dark place and she plans on fitting in, but she'll have to assemble an army strong enough to battle the forces of the humans. Fifi and her allies have spent a long time living a positive lifestyle, but now it's time to wake up and smell the roses.

Rolie Polie Olie - In a world of robots, there is a young android named Olie Polie. He lives a happy life with his family but remains fascinated with the mystery of what hides beyond the stars. He decides to travel through outer space and visit his biggest hero, the phenomenal Space Boy. After a large spaceship is built, Olie takes to the stars alongside his parents Percy and Polina, his sister Zowie and his dog Spot to accomplish his dream. However, they catch the attention of Gloomius Maximus, a ruthless space pirate looking for more slaves to add to his crew.

Earth to Luna! - Parents tend to take things for granted. But kids are easily fascinated by just about anything. This was the case with Luna, an imaginative six-year-old with a love for science. She and her little brother Jupiter would always try to learn as much about the Earth as they could. Now a few years have passed and Luna has become a wealthy teenage scientist. She and Jupiter have accomplished so much together, such as genetically altering a ferret which they named Clyde. But over the years, Earth has been in less than stellar condition and Luna is annoyed by how many people take it for granted. She decides that the best way to save the world is to rule it. Her idea is understandably ridiculous, but she is incredibly persistant. Accompanied by both Jupiter and Clyde, she executes plan after plan in an effort to accomplish the same goal. She's a teenager with an aspiring future, but does she really have what it takes to rule the world? Doubtful.

If you have ideas for similar shows that should take a more grown-up turn, let me know in the comments. Just don't expect me to turn all of these into actual articles.
