Status: Partially Lost


Dorothy The Dinosaur is a character created by the Australian children's group The Wiggles (mainly by guitarist Murray Cook after many kids in the classes he was teaching became very interested in dinosaurs). The character debuted in the song of the same name on the group's 1991 self-titled debut album and made her video debut in the song's music video that was released a year later. She remains the group's most popular and iconic character and has had many tours[1] and videos[2] centered around her and the other "Wiggly Friends" like Captain Feathersword, Wags the Dog and Henry the Octopus. Her own self-titled television series debuted on ABC1 in 2007 and aired for three seasons ending in 2010.

In 2010, TV Series 3 was came back with a completely different model. This show featured familiar faces from The Wiggles’ extended cast, including backup performers such as James Arthur Chen, Brad Carroll, Kelly Hamilton, Rebecca Muirhead, Rosalind Evans, Fernando Jorge Moguel, Luke Hinton, Tim Lynden, Keane Fletcher, Thembi Mpofu, Kylie Heazlewood, and Luke Field.

The third and final season of the show made some notable changes, increasing the number of episodes and shifting its format. Instead of character dialogue or frequent songs, the episodes were narrated by Kendall Goddard. Each episode followed Dorothy as she traveled to various locations, sometimes in her car or plane, visiting places like France or Italy. Dorothy’s short song calling a friend became a regular feature, but no other characters had speaking roles.

Brad Carroll took over as Captain Feathersword during this season, while Emma Pask voiced Dorothy. Anthony Field’s son, Antonio, joined the cast as Elf Antonio, alongside the Fairies. Unfortunately, this final season received negative reviews. Critics disliked the absence of character dialogue, changes in the Captain Feathersword role, and the show’s new direction. As a result, plans for further seasons were canceled.
