Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! is an animated children's television series created by Bob Boyle.[1] It was produced by Bolder Media and Starz.
Creation
The series was animated on Flash[1] with the Adobe Animate software and the Toon Boom software. The show was produced by Bolder Media[2] (a joint venture between Frederator Studios and Mixed Media Group)[2] and Starz Media (Formally IDT Entertainment)[3]. Bob Boyle, Susan Miller, and Fred Seibert were the executive producers, and the technical director was David Sandford. The songs on the show were sung by Brad Mossman. The series composer was Mike Reagan. The series was produced in Burbank, California[1] by Film Roman[4].
The series begins to develop with the name of Wubby, Widget and Walden[5] (based on the unpublished comic The Tail of Flopsy, Mopsy, and Ted)[6]. After a few months, Wubby was changed to Wubbzy[7], and that the series would be called as it is now known[8]. It is possible to see, in the Wubbcast's first video that the series had a release candidate (this due to the figures (especially Widget) that do not appear in the series)[9]. Chapter 10 of the Wubbcast showed A Tale of Tails before the show aired[10]. Finally, the series debuted on August 28th, 2006 on Nick Jr. The second season debuted on Nick Jr. and Nickelodeon in the United States on September 2nd, 2008.
Plot
Each episode revolves around Wubbzy and his 3 friends, Widget, Walden, and Daizy.
