synopsis
Not unlike such American cartoon efforts as Gummi Bears, the British effort Jellikins outlined the adventures of six cuddly characters in a colorful confectionary world. The "Jellikins," actually teddy bears made of candy, were Strum, Bouncey, Amber, Coral, Denny, and Pepper. The characters all lived in Jolly Jelly World. Utilizing cutting-edge computer animation, Jellikins ran for 78 ten-minute episodes, debuting July 1, 1999 over the U.K.'s ITV network.
