Curious George is a popular animated children's television series that aired on PBS Kids from 2006 through 2015. The show is based on the classic children's book series of the same name, written by H.A. and Margaret Rey, which follows the adventures of a playful and curious monkey named George.

The show stars Frank Welker as the voice of George, Jeff Bennett as The Man with the Yellow Hat (George's guardian and best friend), and Rino Romano as the Narrator. The characters are all voiced to perfection and each brings a unique dimension of humor and warmth to the show.

The show's concept is simple, yet effective. George is a monkey who lives with The Man with the Yellow Hat, whom he affectionately refers to as "Ted" (presumably short for Theodore). Together, they explore the world and learn valuable lessons along the way.

Each episode of Curious George typically involves George getting into trouble due to his curiosity and infectious sense of adventure. However, he always learns valuable life lessons through his experiences, and The Man with the Yellow Hat is always there to guide him and keep him safe.

While the show is geared toward preschool-aged children, its universal themes and relatable characters make it a hit with audiences of all ages. Children adore George's playful antics and sense of wonder, while adults appreciate the show's educational value and positive messages.

One of the most striking features of Curious George is its animation style. The show's creators have opted for a hand-drawn look, complete with sketchy lines and deliberately imperfect images. This style gives the show a unique charm and makes it stand out from other animated children's shows, which often have a sleek, computer-generated look.

The show is also notable for its catchy musical score, which sets the mood and adds to the overall sense of whimsy and playfulness. The music is composed by Joe Fallon, who has worked on numerous other children's shows, and is perfectly suited to the lighthearted tone of the series.

One important aspect of the show is its educational value. Each episode of Curious George is designed to teach children a valuable lesson, whether it's about science, math, or simply how to be a good friend. The show is careful not to be too heavy-handed with its messages, instead using humor and relatable situations to help children understand important concepts.

Some critics have criticized the show for its use of a monkey as the main character, arguing that it could be seen as exploitative or insensitive to real-world issues surrounding the treatment of animals. However, the show's creators have always maintained that George is a purely fictional character, and that his adventures are meant to be fun and educational, rather than political or social commentary.

Overall, Curious George is a charming and delightful children's show that has become a beloved classic for audiences of all ages. With its vibrant animation, catchy music, and relatable characters, the show manages to be both educational and entertaining, offering valuable life lessons that children will carry with them for years to come.

Curious George is a series that is currently running and has 14 seasons (183 episodes). The series first aired on September 4, 2006.
