Packaged by King Features Syndicate and Safety4 Kids, the 13-episode PBS series SeeMore's Playhouse combined live action, puppetry, animation, and music to help the kiddie viewers embrace and understand the concepts of safety, health, and wellness. The titular SeeMore the Safety Seal spent his free time with such puppet pals as Basil Wombat, Shades the Wolf, Lottie Lamb, Penny Pup, Barb the Porcupine, and Harry Hippo. In the course of their adventures, SeeMore and friends set down important guidelines for their viewers, and also encouraged "empowerment" -- that is, allowing the kids at home to use their inherent intelligence to make their own life decisions. In most markets, SeeMore's Playhouse was seen on a weekly basis beginning September 10, 2006.
