[edit] Origin

According to Boyle, the series began as a story created by his niece, Viviana Ogawa, that Boyle turned into a rough comic book-style storybook called The Tail of Flopsy, Mopsy, and Ted. During the series' development process, the characters were renamed Widget, Wubby and Walden. Eventually, the title character was named Wubbzy.

Boyle submitted his original concept as a book to Bolder Media. After more than 600 children's book concepts were reviewed, Boyle's submission was selected for development into an animated series for preschoolers. Production for the first season began in January 2005.

After that Wubbzy says "Well, what time is it?". The robot then says "Hoo hoo, hee hee, its time for the Wubb Club dance party!", and then a song begins.

[edit] Movies

[edit] Wubbzy's Big Movie

A made-for-TV movie titled Wubbzy's Big Movie premiered on Starz Kids & Family on 29 August 2008. The 77-minute long story revolves around Wubbzy getting amnesia and being unable to remember who he is. (This may be a 'copy-off' of WhoBob WhatPants on SpongeBob SquarePants). Widget and Walden help Wubbzy recover his memory. Previously aired episodes from the TV series are used for flashbacks when one of the characters recalls a moment to help Wubbzy remember. The episodes included: Puddle Muddle, The Tired Tail, The Pirate Treasure, Come Spy With Me, A Tale Of Tails, Perfecto Party, and Monster Madness. There are also references from Wubbzy In The Woods and Escape From Dino Island. In continuity sense, the movie takes place right after the events of Puddle Muddle and a week after the events of The Tired Tail as said by Dr. Flooey.

[edit] Wubb Idol

The second movie based on the series. For the first time, the movie presented Daizy and The Wubb Girlz voiced by Beyoncé. This movie is an hour-long.
