This article has been tagged as Needing work due to its lack of references and content.


Gerbert is a show about a chicken-nugget-shaped puppet child that teaches life lessons for children.[1][2][3] In its first season, it was Christian themed, however, a secular version, without religious content, was syndicated to public television stations from 1993 to 1997. It aired on the Freeform (then the Christian Broadcasting Network) from February 15, 1988 to December 25, 1991, and was also sold as a direct-to-video series in Wal-Mart and Christian book stores. It has aired on Christian television stations and networks continuously since its 1988 debut. The secular version also briefly aired on PBS during the early 1990s.
