Revision as of 20:24, 17 November 2022
The first season of the Noggin show Oobi was a series of two-minute interstitial shorts.[1][2] The show eventually ran for three seasons, and the last two seasons were widely released in HD on Amazon and Paramount+.
However, the first season of shorts never got a full, official release. This season's episodes are mostly available from home-recorded clips of Noggin. Three episodes of the season are currently missing.
History
In the United States, the shorts were mainly shown on Noggin. From late 2000 until early 2003, one short was played before each 30-minute show from 6 AM to 6 PM.[3] For the month of April 2002, Nickelodeon's main channel also aired the shorts as part of a cross-promotion for the Noggin channel.[4]
In Canada, TVOntario aired 46 of the shorts on a rotating schedule.[5] TVO's schedule catalogues are the source of official titles for many of the shorts. However, two of them ("Itsy Bitsy Spider!" and "Toys!") don't appear at all on their schedules, indicating that TVO didn't air the complete collection.
Availability
Shortened versions of "Dance!" and "Bubble Bath!" were released on Nick Jr. DVDs from 2003 to 2004, but that was it in terms of official releases. 48 shorts are confirmed to exist.
Episodes
3 of the 48 known shorts are currently lost. The first short, "Dance!", is only available in an incomplete form.
