The Pajanimals is a preschool children's series made by The Jim Henson Company and featuring Muppet-style characters. The series was originated as a set of approximately two minute shorts (which were co-produced by 4Kids Entertainment) featuring songs focused on issues related to bedtime, such as being afraid of the dark, having a scary dream, or waking up at night. Based on the success of the original shorts, a full-length series was created and began airing on Sprout in 2011, without 4Kids' involvement. The new series features the same characters and basic style, but adds guest characters and an expanded focus. While bedtime issues are still tackled, the series also addresses concerns of a more general nature to youngsters, such as fear of speaking in front of a class and concern about taking an extended trip away from home.The show was made in part with the help of Jill Spivack and Jennifer Waldburger, creators of a commercial product called The Sleepeasy Solution, and the two serve as content consultants for the show and appear in parental guidance spots created for the program. The original shorts, along with the parental guidance spots, are available on DVD, but have not been shown on television since the full-length series began airing.The full series formerly also aired on weekends on NBC stations as part of their NBC Kids block. Its second season began airing in October 2012 and ended in March 2013.In the UK, the show aired on Nick Jr. and Tiny Pop, but with British English child actors' voices dubbing over the American English voices. The dub is currently Lost Media, with only the theme song and a few snippets having been recovered.As of February 2023, the complete series is available on both YouTube and Prime Video.

That Reminds Me of a Song: The series began as a series of songs of approximately two minutes in length. The full-length series keeps to these origins by featuring at least one song in every episode.

Breaking the Fourth Wall: In the full series, the characters that the Pajanimals visit do this at the end of each episode to summarize the episode's aesop (though they always comment "But you probably already knew that, didn't you?") and also sometimes do it even during the main show.

Limited Wardrobe: All of the Pajanimals always wear their iconic pajamas, save for being shown naked only at the top during the "Bathtime Boogie" song number. Even in "A Super Sweet Night," in which they're dressed up in Halloween costumes, the costumes are just accessories such as a firefighter's hat and a superhero mask. As follows: Apollo wears a purple shirt and pants with a pattern of Jupiter and a rocket ship. Cowbella wears a purple button-up shirt and pants with alternating diamonds of lighter and darker purple and pink and white striped cuffs. Squacky wears a light blue jumpsuit with yellow polka-dots bordered by white throughout and darker blue on the cuffs and in the button-up center. Sweetpea Sue wears a light pink onesie with a pattern of a colorful flowers in circles throughout and darker pink on the cuffs.

Potty Emergency: In "Accidents Can Happen," after Cowbella and Sweetpea Sue go to see the Pajanimals' mom after Cowbella has her potty failure, Squacky talks about how hard it can be get to the bathroom in time sometimes. He then darts off in a manner that suggests that he really needs to go the bathroom himself.

Eskimos Aren't Real: In "An Octopus Hug," when the Pajanimals find a picture of an octopus in a picture book, they marvel at its many legs and large eyes. All except for Sweetpea Sue, who seems like she would be worried except for the fact that, as she says, "Octopuses aren't real, are they?" They tell her that they are, in fact, real and she becomes genuinely worried, so they take her into the ocean to meet a real octopus named Elle.

Looped Lyrics
 The Pajanimals / int_3a03b27c
comment
Looped Lyrics: "Morning Time" is the cumulative song version, in which Squacky keeps waking up in the middle of the night, asking if it's morning time yet and the other Pajanimals tell him that it isn't. "How do I know if it's morning time?" he asks repeatedly and with each verse, they add to the list of signs that it's morning time - "Can you smell buttered toast? The jam you love most? Can you hear Mommy talk while her fuzzy feet walk? Do you hear birdies sing? Is your dad gargling? Is the sun shining in so the day can begin?" Squacky is forced to admit that none of those things are true at the moment, so the Pajanimals tell him to go back to sleep until it's morning time.

Strictly Formula
 The Pajanimals / int_3f1aadeb
comment
Strictly Formula: The original shorts were each presented as the Pajanimals singing a song about something related to bedtime. Each episode of the full version series follows this pattern- the characters are shown in their playroom just before bedtime. Their parents tell them its time to get ready for bed and they do so. After this, they are shown in bed, but one or more of them has a problem that is keeping them from getting to sleep. They all hop into one of the characters' beds together and "Bundle up, snuggle up, buckle up and go!" and the bed takes them to some sort of Magical Land, such as the Land of Hush, or The Land of Games. There, they talk with the episode's selected guest character, who gives them advice to help them solve their problem. They return home and the mother sings the "La La Lullaby" song, then the episode ends with the guest character briefly reappearing and Breaking the Fourth Wall to recap the episode's Aesop.

comment
The Dreaded Pretend Tea-Party: "Super Squacky" opens with Cowbella, Sweetpea Sue and Apollo all playing tea party, and Apollo moaning and groaning. When Cowbella asks him if "Poodlepants" wants sugar in his tea, he bemoans the name "Poodlepants" and says that what he really wants is to stop playing tea party. When she presses him, however, he asks for "two lumps of sugar, please." In "Mind Your Manners," Cowbella invites Apollo and Squacky to one, but neither want to play because they're busy playing a space game involving alien ducks. Then Sweetpea Sue walks in with cookies, saying that their mom made for the tea party. Suddenly both race over to join, Squacky saying that they love tea parties and asking when it starts.

Two Shorts: Used in a somewhat odd way. Even when the show is presented in a half-hour block, the ending theme with "La La Lullaby" is still presented at the end of the first short, then the opening credits are used leading into the second short. Though when the series was made available on Amazon, they chopped "La La Lullaby" and the credits roll from the first short, only airing at the very end.

Same Language Dub
 The Pajanimals / int_aac4eeae
comment
Same Language Dub: A British English dub of the series was aired on Nick Jr. in the UK and Ireland. Curiously, this is also the version you get if you watch the series via the Henson Family TV app in the United States. However, somebody forgot to replace the closed-caption feed, so when the characters use British terms (or other subtle changes in dialogue that can likely be attributed to the voice actors not matching exactly to the original script), the closed-captioning still reads as if it were the U.S. version, i.e. Squacky saying "diaper" instead of "nappy."

It's All About Me
 The Pajanimals / int_bb18a227
comment
It's All About Me: Cowbella sometimes suffers from this, which can also result in Green-Eyed Monster, such as in "Apollo's Special Day" when she's jealous of Apollo's birthday and wants a party for her.

Gratuitous Italian: Cowbella would sometimes invoke this in the original shorts, even saying "good night" to mom in Italian.

That Makes Me Feel Angry
 The Pajanimals / int_bfc2ec8a
comment
That Makes Me Feel Angry: A frequent plot. The characters often have to work out their feelings about each other, and will express them out loud. The full series has a song called "I'm Mad" that features Apollo in one installment, Squacky and Cowbella in another, and Sweetpea Sue the final time that it's used.

Bait-and-Switch Comment: In "One Teacup, Two Friends," Cowbella realizes that she's sad that Sweetpea Sue is sad that she wouldn't share her teacup with her. She says that she's not going to share the teacup with her... she's going to give it to her, because they're family and she cares about how she feels. Sweetpea Sue, however, decides that they should just share it, so that they can play together.

Theme Tune Roll Call: Though, curiously, the character traits described change from the original shorts to the full version series. In the original, "Squacky's picked a book to share with all of you," but in the full version series "Cowbella shares a story with all of you."

Silent Treatment: In "I'm Sorry, Really Sorry," Sweetpea Sue and Cowbella decide to give each other the silent treatment; Sweetpea Sue because Cowbella got paint on her daisy puff toy, and Cowbella because Sweetpea Sue won't accept her apology or forgive her.

Blanket Fort: Apollo and Squacky build a blanket-and-pilllow fort in "Team Fort," though Squacky says at first that they're "building a fork." They later end up in a fight because they borrowed Sweetpea Sue and Cowbella's blankets and pillows, and the two want them back to build their own fort.

Duck!
 The Pajanimals / int_e541901e
comment
Duck!: In "Mountains of Messiness," the beaver Hank welcomes the Pajanimals to the Land of Build It by saying "Welcome to the Land of... Duck!" which excites Squacky because, of course, he is a duck. However, he means for them to duck, as there's a big log that's being used to construct a lodge swinging their way, courtesy of the beaver Frank. Fortunately, they duck in time.
