Top stuff - great for little kids and grown up kids

Top show from WETA the Lord of the Rings CGI house. Plots are great for children, the dry wit very amusing for accompanying adults as well.

The eye contact between characters gives some idea of the level of graphics development, and that hair! Repeated viewings (as part of child minding) always impresses with attention to fine graphic detail. The appropriate mouth movement accompanying clearly spoken words is rare at this level of detailed animation.

The series is played free to air on the ABC (Australian BC) with no fanfare, resulting in chance viewings and many missed episodes. I applaud the organisation (Australian dictionary) and planning of one person who has DVR'd all 26 episodes for future viewing (even though the producers did not get to see a reward in this case).

Absolutely marvelous show for babysitting small children.

The DVD's are available via the ABC Shop in Australia for the true adherents. Being a local I don't know if they deliver OS.
