Status: Lost

BabyFirstTV is a popular TV channel for babies 0-3. When the channel launched in 2006, 36 shows premiered alongside it, one of them was known as Smile. [2]

Plot

" When a parent watches their child smile, it is a priceless moment that deepens the precious emotional bond they share. Everyone has their own unique way of expressing happiness and their own distinct smile which they can call their own. This series shows young viewers the virtually infinite ways happiness is expressed through smiling. With countless smiles laid out against a background of soothing colors and a relaxing soundtrack, “Smiles” is sure to bring a bright and happy ending to parent and baby’s day."[3] As usual for BabyFirst's nighttime programming, Smile was basic. It allegedly featured videos of children smiling while the intro which was instrumental featured objects smiling with the show's name.[4]

Availability

Smile aired regularly on BabyFirst for 7 months until it was pulled from BabyFirst's schedule in December of 2006, sometime after December 6, 2006, for unknown reasons, but it could have likely been pulled due to it not being that popular at all. Dougie in Disguise, another show that was airing on BabyFirst, was also pulled from airing around this time.[5]

Possible Leads

The only likely possibilities of it being found is it being on a VHS tape or a TV recording from the 7 months it aired in. On November 23, 2023, a YouTube user named Johany Aguilar uploaded a video claiming to be from Smile, however the footage was taken from the BabyFirst Night Symphony DVD released in 2008, the footage is likely not from Smile due to it not featuring children smiling, rather sleeping.[6] In June of 2024, a user on the BabyFirst Fandom Wiki claimed to have owned a VHS tape from July of 2006 containing footage of Smile but the VHS tape was broken in December of 2018 because the VCR tried to eat their tape.[7] It's unknown if BabyFirst has an archive or some place to store their old shows and they have never been contacted on this matter.
