Would be good to get any feedback - especially from any of you with kids in the 5 to 10 age range!
All the best

Pedro and Frankensheep is a series of 10 x 5 minute episodes for CBBC following the scientific misadventures of a super intelligent guinea pig Pedro and his naïve simpleton cyborg sheep Frank. Also featuring two high IQ ticks Hector and Hugo that live on Frank’s head and who burst into song every episode.
Nine episodes are available to view at the CBBC website (UK only)

And particularly nice are the make-your-own Foldeez characters that the BBC has put together from our characters in the series.

That was too good...man, I hate you guys. (coming from someone with a sheep-related concept that's never gotten anywhere.) I'm a lot older than 10 but I enjoyed everything about that. (what does that say about me?)

I give it two thumbs up, as with most of y'alls work! ;)
Both my kids have passed the high mark (age wise), but I'm pretty sure my boy would've enjoyed that spot immensely!

I really liked the episode. I wish I could watch it though (don't live in England). Hopefully it comes over here.
Hi, be sure to check out my blog! A few thing there, and I'll also be putting some of my work (pictures and short carttons) there too in the future: http://ukracattack.blogspot.com:)
I am also making a Flash animated cartoon that I plan to air on it's website in Fall 2008. It's called Tednut and it's about an personified peanut named Ted and his friend Kernal, and their basic adventures in their town of Sleepy Oaks, New York: http://tednut.sampasite.com:D
Hi all. Thanks for feeding back on Pedro and Frankensheep. We're quite proud of the end result. It was a new process for us to go through a broadcaster like the BBC with all their checks and balances.
The sleep episode on YouTube has gone a bit wild since I posted last - we've featured on the global homepage and our hits are now over half a million which is really excellent.
