| Wimzie's House | comment |
Wimzie's House is a Canadian preschool puppet series that ran for 65 episodesnote 112 episodes were originally produced for the series, but only a select 65 of them were broadcasted in many television markets, especially in the U.S. from 1995-1996 on YTV, and aired on PBS stations through distribution by Maryland Public Television in the US from September 1, 1997 until January 3, 2003.The show was about a 5 year old dragon-bird girl named Wimzie whose parents worked all day, so her grandma Yaya ran a mini daycare center. The charges of the daycare are Wimzie, her 18 month old brother Bo, a 5 year old goblin named Jonas who loves science, his 3 year old sister Loulou who loves to be with the bigger kids, and a 4 year old ogre named Horace who isn't very bright.In each episode they learn lessons and flip over to semi-related songs out of the blue twice an episode. As a bonus, the songs are presented in letterbox widescreen; the show is presented in 4:3 full-screen. (Though not always.)In 1999, The Jim Henson Company issued a lawsuit against the company, claiming the characters looked too much like Muppets (despite the fact that a number of Henson people, including puppet builder Jim Kroupa, worked on this series), though an Urban Legend has surrounded the lawsuit for years that the real reason behind the lawsuit was because they didn't want to be connected to what they considered to be an inferior show. | |

Playing Sick | |
| Wimzie's House / int_1320d787 | comment |
Playing Sick: In the episode "I Want My Mommy!" Graziella has a day off from work and promises to spend it playing with Wimzie, but then Bo gets sick, so she has to spend her time taking care of him instead. Wimzie pretends to be sick to get attention too. She eventually comes clean when she sees how overwhelmed her mother is taking care of two sick kids, and when Yaya (who sees through her trick) tries to "cure" her with a mustard and broccoli concoction. In the episode "Jonas the Actor," when the kids plan to perform a play for the neighbors, Jonas has Stage Fright, so he pretends to have a broken tonsil and a sore big toe. | |

| Wimzie's House / int_1460b100 | comment |
Death Is a Sad Thing: In the episode "Bye Bye Birdie," Wimzie and friends find a bird that was killed by a neighbor's cat. They hold a funeral for it and even give it a posthumous name, "Twinkle." Soon afterward, they find Twinkle's nest and two orphaned babies, which they feed and guard until they're strong enough to fly away. | |

Meanwhile, Jonas is in a bad mood, and the adults think he's jealous of all the attention his sister is getting, but it turns out he actually feels guilty because it was by tripping over his roller skates that Loulou got hurt. In "I'm Scared for Daddy," Rousso has only just recovered from having broken his arm during a fire rescue, and Wimzie is afraid that he'll get hurt again if he goes back to work. | |

From Bad to Worse | |
| Wimzie's House / int_7870735b | comment |
From Bad to Worse: In one episode, Yaya introduces a Magic Starfruit that can grant wishes, but only after it's hidden and a person finds it. When. the kids fail the first time, Yaya tells them a story about people who were cursed with polka dots. While arguing about the story, Horace blurts that he wishes Wimzie would have them. It turns out he was sitting on the Magic Starfruit, which grants the wish and Wimzie has blue polka dots. They can't undo the wish unless they find the Starfruit again to reactivate its power, with Horace in My God, What Have I Done? mode because Wimzie is crying as the others call her weird. Horace then resolves to find it and wish her back to normal. Instead, Wimzie accidentally finds it and wishes out loud that Bo, Loulou and Jonas had pink feathers, wasting her opportunity to get rid of the polka dots. She then makes Bo cry by calling him weird as payback. Yaya orders everyone to call truce; they'll find the Starfruit again, and whoever does can wish everyone back to normal. Bo finds it...and says he wants Grandma to have whiskers. Welp! (Fortunately, Yaya finds it Actually Pretty Funny and tells Horace, who is feeling left out, that whoever wishes next can make sure he gets whiskers, feathers or polka dots.) | |

Didn't Think This Through: Wimzie, on a day when she's sick of chores, decides that she's going to live in the backyard in a tent and says no one should do chores anymore. Her parents humor her and say they're giving up chores as well; it turns out cooking is a chore, as is doing laundry when she falls and gets covered in dirt. (Yaya and Grazielle reveal that they made the kid's favorite snacks and are hiding them in the fridge.) | |

My God, What Have I Done? | |
| Wimzie's House / int_a1b141f4 | comment |
My God, What Have I Done?: Horace has this reaction when he wastes a Magic Starfruit wish accidentally and curses Wimzie with blue polka dots on her face. He immediately tries to undo it and apologizes to her. Likewise, there's an episode where Horace gets obsessed with a wrestling show and tries to roughhouse with his friends. Wimzie is working on a present for Yaya, a "princess" that looks like a telephone pole according to Jonas. When the others say they don't want to play with Horace if he's being rough, Wimzie wasn't in the conversation because she was working on the present. Horace sees her walking by and realizes that she didn't say she wanted to avoid wrestling. Cue him bodyslamming her...and she drops the present, breaking it. Wimzie runs away upset, as Horace picks up the pieces and goes to confess to Yaya. | |

Dream Intro | |
| Wimzie's House / int_a4ffefce | comment |
Dream Intro: "Am I Dreaming?" starts with Wimzie running from Jonas, both in silhouette, as Jonas continues to grow larger and larger, taunting Wimzie by saying he was never her friend and he never liked her, which turns out to be a dream, that causes Wimzie to spend the rest of the episode holding a grudge against Jonas, much to his confusion. | |

Cartoon Creature | |
| Wimzie's House / int_ac781948 | comment |
Cartoon Animal: While it's established that Wimzie is half-dragon/half-bird (Rousso is supposed to be a dragon, Graziella is supposed to be a bird), it's never said what kind of creatures Jonas and Loulou or Horace are supposed to be, though some has assumed they're frogs or something with a similar appearance. (Wikipedia says Jonas and Loulou are goblins and Horace is an ogre.) | |

Be Careful What You Wish For | |
| Wimzie's House / int_b06bbf4b | comment |
Be Careful What You Wish For: In "Wimzie's Three Wishes," Wimzie wishes her parents didn't have to work. Right away, her mother is laid off from her job, and her father comes home early because the firehouse doesn't need him that day. Wimzie assumes her wishes have caused this and worries that they won't have enough money for food anymore. | |

Awkward First Sleepover: In "Wimzie and the Scaredy Cats," all the daycare kids have their first sleepover together, and at various points, Loulou and Horace struggle with fear of the dark and of the scary stories being told. But with Yaya's help, they work through their fears and everyone has a good time in the end. | |

Mad at a Dream | |
| Wimzie's House / int_d011a8a0 | comment |
Mad at a Dream: Deconstructed in the episode, "Am I Dreaming?" in which Wimzie has a nightmare that Jonas was never her friend, and never liked her, and the next day during daycare, Wimzie is very hostile and abrasive towards Jonas, leaving him very confused and rather sad, since he's unaware that she's getting back at him for hurting her feelings in her dream. In the end, when he does finally learn about it, he tells her it was All Just a Dream. | |

Uncanny Family Resemblance: In one episode, Wimzie and the gang are visited by Horace's identical cousin, Morris, who was a bit more abrasive than Horace, causing him to feel slighted when Morris kept playing with his friends. | |

Comically Missing the Point: In a Feud Episode, the kids start excluding each other from activities such as dancing or painting a dollhouse saying it's only for "Two" or "three". Yaya intervenes and tells them friends don't do this. They all agree to start over. Then the feud starts again, with them saying activities are only for boys or girls. | |
