PBS KIDS will be offering up fun, festive holiday specials as well as a brand new series premiere this October and November.
Halloween specials will be airing October 25 through 31 and will feature the favorite Curious George: A Halloween Boo Fest along with popular fall episodes from hit toons like Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood, Wild Kratts, Peg + Cat and Dinosaur Train throughout the week. Full listings available here.
On November 25, the day before Thanksgiving in the U.S., PBS will premiere the first hour-long Wild Kratts holiday special, “Creature Christmas.” In this seasonal adventure, the Kratts take a break from their intrepid questing for creatures to celebrate Christmas. But when they receive an alert that their favorite critters are disappearing around the globe, their holiday part quickly turns into a rescue mission.
Finally, following the debut of “Creature Christmas,” viewers will be introduced to a brand-new action-adventure series Nature Cat in its premiere episode. The show stars an ordinary housecat named Fred (voiced by Saturday Night Live’s Taran Killam), who becomes his alter-ego “Nature Cat” – backyard nature explorer extraordinaire – when his family leaves for the day.
