Jellabies is an Australian TV series that was produced by Winchester Entertainment. It originally aired on ABC Kids in Australia. It then aired on Fox Family Channel in the United States, Treehouse TV in Canada, Kindernet in The Netherlands, and GMTV in the UK, where it went under the name Jellikins. The series ran from 1999-2003.

Overview

The animation for the series was done by Johnny and Mikel Lewis using 3D Studio Max. It features six rounded, rubbery, brightly colored little beings named Pepper (red, carries a backpack full of tools), Bouncy (yellow, drives a bumper car), Strum (purple, musician), Denny (blue, lives on a boat), Amber (orange, rides a hot-air balloon), and her twin Coral (pink, lives in a Meccano-set-style playhouse). They all live in the Jolly Jelly World, where they are apparently in charge of creating rainbows for the entire Earth using a special machine. The machine also functions as a sort of semi-sentient replicator, to provide them with toys and other acessories on request. Their occasionally-seen friend Duffy the Dragon lives in a remote cave and is the only character in the show who isn't a Jellabie.

The series focused on the characters having different small everyday experiences in their downtime from rainbow creation, such as learning to plant seeds, giving gifts, and putting on a circus. As the Jellabies do not speak intelligibly (save for exclamations like "Woo-hoo!") British comedy legend Rik Mayall provides interactive narration for the English-language versions, serving as a bridge between the characters and the viewer.

Missing Episodes

Of the 95 episodes, only one is available in English as Jellabies, and that one is from the Fox Family American dub (as found by LMW user DoraDubs). The Australian originals, with Mayall as narrator, appear to have all been taken down from YouTube some years ago. Most of the UK Jellikins episodes exist online, but these broadcasts changed the design of the characters considerably from the original, making them explicitly teddy bear-like in appearance.

The only other original Jellabies episodes found so far are in Dutch. A promo in Korean plus the opening sequence in German has also been preserved. Several episodes of the series were uploaded in Spanish circa 2016, but were removed due to a copyright complaint. A couple of years later, YouTube user AllysNostalgic 2000 uploaded two episodes of the original English version of Jellabies; these have likewise since been removed. More recently a 12-minute promotional video for the series (under the name "Jellies") has surfaced, as well as a promo from Fox Family Channel.
