| The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss | comment |
The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss is a Denser and Wackier American live-action/puppet television series based on characters created by Dr. Seuss, produced by The Jim Henson Company. It is notable for its use of live puppets with digitally animated backgrounds, and in its first season, for refashioning characters and themes from the original Dr. Seuss books into new stories that often retained much of the flavor of Dr. Seuss' own works.Each episode of season one is a self-contained story based on Dr. Seuss characters (such as Yertle the Turtle, Horton the Elephant, the Grinch, the Fox in Socks and Mr. Knox, and Thidwick the Big-Hearted Moose). The unifying element is that the stories are introduced and commented on by The Cat in the Hat (performed by Bruce Lanoil) who serves as host of the show. Occasionally, The Cat in the Hat himself appears in the episode, reprising his role as a bit of a trickster, as in his original eponymous books.It was notable for hewing closely to many of the themes of the original Dr. Seuss stories, which often had a strong moral overtone. As a result, some episodes have distinctly dark or sinister elements which, like some Dr. Seuss books, may not be appropriate for younger children.Due to complaints about how scary the first season of the series was to some children, season two was completely reworked along the lines of a more traditional Preschool Show. The Cat in the Hat (now voiced by a much less gravelly sounding Martin P. Robinson) lives in a playhouse with his Little Cats A through Z and the often flustered Terrence McBird (performed by Anthony Asbury). Aside from the residents of the house there are usually visitors based on Dr. Seuss characters, including the introduction of Sam-I-Am.Each episode revolves around a theme (such as family, health, art) and features one or two songs about the theme. The action shifts between The Cat in the Hat and what is going on in his playhouse and the shorter related story interludes, which he shows to the audience by means of his "Wubbuloscope". These story vignettes take place in various locations: Seussville – A contemporary city where Sarah Hall Small and her family live. The Jungle of Nool – A jungle that is home to Horton the Elephant, Morton the Elephant-Bird, Jane Kangaroo, Junior Kangaroo, Yertle the Turtle, the Wickershams, and the Sneels. The Kingdom of Didd – A Renaissance-like kingdom that is ruled by King Derwin. Mount Crumpit – Home of the Grinch and his dog, Max.The tone of season two is much lighter, no doubt the result of bringing in a number of comedic writers such as Adam Felber and Mo Rocca. The Cat in the Hat is no longer a trickster and instead has assumed the role of a friendly and enthusiastic host who is helpful, nurturing and sweet. Although this revised format only lasted one season before the show ended, the format was recognizably previously featured in Jim Henson Productions' other children's program Bear in the Big Blue House, which aired on Disney Channel.The show aired on Nickelodeon where it did modestly well in viewership (at the time), and aired for two seasons from October 13, 1996 to December 28, 1998. It was moved to Nick Jr. once Season 1 ended, and the second season was very quickly burned off.Both seasons of the series are currently available to stream on Prime Video and the Roku Family Channel. | |

Dirty Coward | |
| The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss / int_1235f055 | comment |
In the former episode, Yertle is kicked out of a kingdom (again) and finds himself in a mucky, garbage-infested pit. Along comes two people from the village of Troomph, named Thaddeus and Gertrude, who are tasked with dumping a bag of garbage for the dreaded-but-never-seen "Blag-Bludder Beast" (so the people of Troomph won't ever have to encounter him). The snarling Yertle comes out of the pit with his lower half conveniently resembling the Beast (with huge, fiery, red eyes; sharp, green horns; and stringy hair), as Thaddeus begs for the "Beast" not to hurt him. When Yertle reveals himself, Thaddeus enthusiastically thanks him for "conquering" the Beast. Yertle, never one to pass up an opportunity to glorify himself, plays along and passes himself off as "Yertle the Brave". Yertle then convinces the others that since the Beast (which Yertle constantly misnames) is likely to return and terrorize the Troomphians, they need someone who can keep him away, eventually leading the Troomphians to nominate Yertle as their leader. Yertle, of course, takes this opportunity to treat the people of Troomph as his slaves, commanding them to bring him jewels, clothes, even a tower made from their homes to sit on top of (with tapestries, lots of tapestries), all in the name of being their "protector". Eventually, the Blag-Bludder Beast does return, and its roar ends up frightening the conceited turtle, exposing him as a Dirty Coward. Eventually, what was thought to be the dreaded Blag-Bludder Beast turns out to be just the squawk of a tropical bird (in keeping with the moral of things not always being what they seem). As Yertle laughs at the outcome, the angry Troomphians all turn on Yertle and send him back to the muck from which he came. | |

Blind Without 'Em: Fiona Phish from "The Birthday Moose" is an elderly fish who can't see very well without her glasses. When the Birthday Bird is unable to take her and everyone else sharing the same birthday to Katroo for a party due to being frozen alive in a block of ice while visiting the Arctic, Thidwick decides to take his friends to Katroo himself, disguised as the Birthday Bird. Thidwick is able to easily convince Fiona that he is the Birthday Bird due to her poor eyesight. | |

Small Parent, Huge Child: In the first Seuss Story in "Lester Leaps In", the Cat in the Hat shows the viewers the kind of families that live in the Wubbulous World. In the Jungle of Nool, one such family consists of two Sneels and a baby Fribbermaggee. While the Sneels are small creatures, the baby Fribbermaggee is much bigger than them. The Cat reveals that the baby Fribbermaggee was the size of a mouse when the two Sneels first found him and decided to adopt him. | |

Picnic Episode: In "The Cat in the Hat's Indoor Picnic", rain spoils plans for an outdoor picnic, much to the dismay of Terrence McBird, who was looking forward to playing in the sandbox. The Cat in the Hat and the Little Cats improvise by spending their picnic in the Cat's Playhouse, and making a sandbox for Terrence with his birdbath and dried corn. In the Wubbulous World, Princess Tizz imagines the most special picnic spot. | |

Gleeful and Grumpy Pairing: The Cat in the Hat and Terrence McBird have this respective dynamic in the show's second season. The Cat is the show's warm-hearted host who encourages both Terrence and the viewers to participate in whatever activity he and the Little Cats have planned for the episode, while Terrence frequently complains and gripes about disliking things and will often refuse to participate in whatever activity the Cats have planned. Fox in Socks and Mr. Knox also have this respective dynamic, albeit to a lesser extent; the former is lively and the latter is moody and easily annoyed. | |

Trash of the Titans | |
| The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss / int_24c6f22e | comment |
Trash of the Titans: "The Cat in the Hat Cleans Up His Act" uses this premise for both its wraparounds and its second Seuss story: In the wraparounds, the Cat's playhouse is so messy that the Cat has lost his red bow tie. Terrence finds it unfair that the house has become so messy since he is the Cat's roommate. Near the end of the episode, the Cat, with help from the Little Cats, Fox in Socks, and Mr. Knox, manages to clean the house through a song called "Clean it Up". In the episode's second Seuss story, Matthew Katroom's bedroom is littered with piles of trash due to Matthew neglecting to clean it, so he spends the day cleaning his room, succeeding by the story's end. | |

Turn the Other Cheek: One episode revolves around a young boy named Larry Nooly, who's dragged along to a hotel by his parents who are on their second honeymoon. He attempts to enjoy himself, except that the Grinch is also a guest and goes out of his way to sabotage everyone's fun, especially Larry's. Larry gets an idea at the end, however, and has all the guests throw a surprise party in the Grinch's honor, and tops it off by giving him a gift. Unable to handle people being nice to him, the Grinch leaves. | |

Mythology Gag: The sour kangaroo and her joey from Horton Hears A Who are named Jane and Junior, as they were in Chuck Jones' Animated Adaptation. In "Mrs. Zabarelli's Holiday Baton", one Seussvillian recites the opening and closing lines of How the Grinch Stole Christmas! during rehearsals for the Jingle Day Pageant. In "The Muckster", Horton tells a squirrel about the time he hatched Morton's egg and the time he saved Whoville before getting sucked up by the titular machine. Later in the episode, when everyone trapped in the titular machine gets released, Horton tells Sally Spingle-Spungle-Sporn about how nobody believed him when he told them there were people living on the dust speck he found. | |

The Complainer Is Always Wrong: This was the A-plot for many of the episodes of the second season. Usually, the Cat in the Hat and the Little Cats will engage in some kind of fun activity, but Terrence McBird will refuse to try it at first. When he does finally join in the fun activity towards the end of the episode, he finds out he actually had fun and it wasn't as bad as he thought it would be. | |

Kick the Dog | |
| The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss / int_34dcfc96 | comment |
Kick the Dog: Much like his book counterpart, Yertle the Turtle is obsessed with ruling over everything and everyone he sees, but what he does in the episodes "The Blag-Bludder Beast" and "Horton Has a Hit" are particularly low, even for him. In the former episode, Yertle is kicked out of a kingdom (again) and finds himself in a mucky, garbage-infested pit. Along comes two people from the village of Troomph, named Thaddeus and Gertrude, who are tasked with dumping a bag of garbage for the dreaded-but-never-seen "Blag-Bludder Beast" (so the people of Troomph won't ever have to encounter him). The snarling Yertle comes out of the pit with his lower half conveniently resembling the Beast (with huge, fiery, red eyes; sharp, green horns; and stringy hair), as Thaddeus begs for the "Beast" not to hurt him. When Yertle reveals himself, Thaddeus enthusiastically thanks him for "conquering" the Beast. Yertle, never one to pass up an opportunity to glorify himself, plays along and passes himself off as "Yertle the Brave". Yertle then convinces the others that since the Beast (which Yertle constantly misnames) is likely to return and terrorize the Troomphians, they need someone who can keep him away, eventually leading the Troomphians to nominate Yertle as their leader. Yertle, of course, takes this opportunity to treat the people of Troomph as his slaves, commanding them to bring him jewels, clothes, even a tower made from their homes to sit on top of (with tapestries, lots of tapestries), all in the name of being their "protector". Eventually, the Blag-Bludder Beast does return, and its roar ends up frightening the conceited turtle, exposing him as a Dirty Coward. Eventually, what was thought to be the dreaded Blag-Bludder Beast turns out to be just the squawk of a tropical bird (in keeping with the moral of things not always being what they seem). As Yertle laughs at the outcome, the angry Troomphians all turn on Yertle and send him back to the muck from which he came. In the latter, Yertle overhears Horton the Elephant singing his son, Morton the Elephant Bird, a lullaby. Sensing a chance to hit the big time, Yertle convinces Horton to become a pop star (with Yertle as his manager), and pulls the elephant away from his son (even interfering in a phone call between them) with the prospect of a world tour. Yertle even employs a security guard to ensure Morton does not get a chance to see his dad (a tactic Morton thwarts by entering the concert with a disguise). Once he does enter the building, Morton tearfully begs his dad to come home. In spite of Yertle's objections, Horton agrees, and quits being a pop star on the spot, before singing his son the lullaby that made him famous, also putting everyone else (including Yertle) to sleep. Yertle is last seen in the episode performing a song in his pond that earns him rotten food being pelted at him. While Yertle had a misguided desire to see Horton gain fame and fortune, separating him from his beloved son for what seems like months at a time to accomplish that goal is just borderline evil. | |

At first, Sarah doesn't get along with Paul; she dislikes how much attention their parents give him and how little they give her as a result. She also dislikes whenever her parents have to remind her to be considerate of him, such as not playing her big bass thumper bumper too loud when he's trying to sleep. After Sarah tries to act like a baby herself so her parents will pay attention to her, her parents tell her that they'll always love both her and Paul equally. Upon hearing this, Sarah changes her attitude about Paul and promises him that she'll be the best big sister ever. | |

Emergency Cargo Dump | |
| The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss / int_4c8e67e4 | comment |
Emergency Cargo Dump: In "The Road to Ka-Larry", Sue Snue, Fox in Socks, and Mr. Knox are on the way to the Kingdom of Ka-Larry to deliver an important package to Queen Regina. When they travel aboard a zeppelin piloted by Horton, they are in danger of crashing into a mountain and have to throw something overboard to make the zeppelin rise. At first, Sue, Fox, and Knox all turn their attention to Horton, since he's an elephant, but decide against tossing him overboard since he's the pilot. Horton instead tosses out the three 25-karat donuts in the box, much to Sue's dismay (he didn't find them very tasty). This results in the zeppelin flying over the mountain, but he, unfortunately, tosses out too much weight, causing the zeppelin to fly too high, and into thin air. | |

Whale Egg: In the prologue to "The Song of The Zubble-Wump", the Cat in the Hat is seen incubating some eggs that house mammal-like creatures, including a cow (which he describes as "udderly" ridiculous), a cross between a cat and a dog, and a tiger, whom he names "Benjamin" when he hatches after the commercial break. In the epilogue, the Cat ships out eggs with cat tails protruding and wears tall red and white striped hats, not unlike his own. | |

Sleep Aesop: In "The Cat in the Hat Takes a Nap", Terrence McBird is a bit cranky, so the Cat suggests he take a nap. Terrence initially refuses as he is a bird and it's cats who are known for sleeping a lot, but with the help from the Cat in the Hat and the Little Cats, he learns the importance of taking a nap. In the Wubbulous World, we see everyone's dreams and meet the Yapper-Nap, a creature who looks scary but turns out to be tired, so Sarah Hall-Small sings a lullaby to help him sleep. | |

Infant Sibling Jealousy: In "Lester Leaps In", Sarah Hall-Small becomes jealous of her new little brother, Paul, because of how much time her parents spend with him, and how they hardly pay attention to her anymore. Whenever they do, it's usually to remind her to be considerate of him, such as not playing her big bass thumper bumper too loud when he's trying to sleep. Sarah eventually gets the idea of acting like a baby herself to get her parents' attention, until her parents tell her that they'll always love both her and Paul equally. Upon hearing this, Sarah changes her attitude about Paul and promises him that she'll be the best big sister ever. | |

Adaptational Nice Guy: Jane Kangaroo is still pretty conceited, but we see a lot more of her redeeming qualities than in Horton Hears a Who!. Her treatment of Horton is also generally nicer (or at least well meaning). This is at least partially due to Adaptational Karma and the consequences of her nastier moments being put in front of her more blatantly than in the book. | |

The Killjoy: In the episode, "The Guest", The Grinch sees a commercial for the Lake Malloon Lodge, and hates how happy everyone is there. He checks into the lodge for the sole purpose of sabotaging the fun of everyone there, including Larry Nooly, a young boy who is dragged along by his parents, who are on their second honeymoon. Among the things The Grinch does during his stay are drain the lake, dismantle the roller coaster, and cut holes in the trampoline. After The Grinch drives everyone else away, Larry gets an idea to throw a party in The Grinch's honor, topping it off by giving him a gift. However, instead of undergoing a Heel–Face Turn like his book counterpart, The Grinch is unable to handle people being nice to him, and retreats back to Mt. Crumpet. | |

In addition to wearing blue socks on his hands and feet, Fox in Socks wears a matching bowler hat and scarf. Mr. Knox also wears a hat. Pam wears a green cap, but that's pretty much it. | |

For Inconvenience, Press "1": In "Almost There", Fox in Socks and Mr Knox have won a free vacation. However, they have to claim it at the travel center where they're confronted by a screen with a cheerful, computerized "Travel Poobah", who gives them 100 options to press, none of which are claiming free tickets. The last option is "If you would like to speak to a real person, press 0". Knox does, and she says "Well, why didn't you say so in the first place?" The entire screen then rises up to reveal that the real, decidedly uncheerful Travel Poobah has been standing behind it the entire time. | |

Awkward First Sleepover: In the second Seuss story "The Cat in the Hat's First First-Day", Morton is excited but also nervous about his first sleepover at Junior Kangaroo's house. Morton finds Junior's bedtime routine strange (having Jane read to him from a mathematics book and play a lullaby on the drums) and is also afraid of the shadows that look like scary monsters. Fortunately, Junior helps Morton overcome this fear. When Morton wakes up, he freaks out when he realizes he's not in his own house, but soon remembers that he's sleeping over at Junior's house. | |

Yertle has to find the statue to prove his innocence as well as Horton's when the latter defends him. In the end, it is revealed that the Snoozer is really a living creature called a Plunket who sleeps for 100 years and moved to a cave so he could get some peace and quiet. | |

Unsuccessful Pet Adoption: In the first episode, "The Gink", Eliza Jane wants to keep a Gink (which is a cross between a Gunk and a skink) as a pet. The Cat in the Hat sings to her to adopt a different sort of pet because although Ginks can be pets, they require a lot of attention. When Eliza adopts a pet, she becomes too busy for her friends and eventually, the Gink grows homesick, so she puts him in the jungle but promises to visit him. | |

Morality Pet | |
| The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss / int_e3b0cd87 | comment |
Morality Pet: Perhaps a literal example with Max, the Grinch's dog. The Grinch is shown to have some odd ideas about pet ownership (having Max brush him instead of the other way around), but he's also shown to genuinely care about him. When he's actually cruel to Max in "Max the Hero", it's because he thinks he's losing him and doesn't know how to react, and he immediately regrets it (even if it takes him a while to admit it). | |

Flanderization | |
| The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss / int_e5e6640b | comment |
Flanderization: This happened to various characters in Season 2. Notably, The Cat in the Hat went from being a trickster like his book counterpart was in Season 1 to a Bear in the Big Blue House (and possibly Steve Burns)-like host and a father figure of the Little Cats. As for Yertle the Turtle and the Grinch, they became far less evil than their book counterparts. In addition, Yertle's goal to be king of everything (much like his original book counterpart) was retconned and he became nicer, sharing his nut collection with Earl in "A Bird's Best Friend" after refusing to several times. | |

When Thidwick finds out that the Birthday Bird is unable to make it this year, he decides to take him and his friends to Katroo himself, disguised as the Birthday Bird. In "The Cat in the Hat's Big Birthday Surprise", it's Terrence McBird's birthday, and he thinks his friends have forgotten. They're really planning his surprise party. In the Wubbulous World, Felix Finkledooper celebrates an extra-special 8th birthday with the 8th Birthday Glurk, and Princess Tizz is sad because all of her birthday presents are too rare and precious to play with. | |

You Mean "Xmas": In "Mrs Zabarelli's Holiday Baton", the citizens of Seussville celebrate Jingle Day. Jingle Day Eve is the shortest day of the year, with the longest and coldest night (which implies that it takes place on the same date as the Winter Solstice). The annual Jingle Day pageant is held, and although each act in the pageant is different every year, it always ends with the youngest performer tinking the tink, which makes the sun rise, ending the night and properly beginning Jingle Day. | |
