Madeline is a television series produced by DIC Entertainment L.P., part of the Madeline media franchise. It began as a series of television specials, and then was continued as various seasons of the TV show.

Background[edit]

In 1960, the Madeline stories were adapted to a one-hour color episode for the NBC series The Shirley Temple Show. Madeline was played by Gina Gillespie, child actor Michel Petit played Pepito, and Imogene Coca portrayed Miss Clavel. It was Madeline's first appearance on television. The episode has been released to DVD.^[1]

Television specials (1988–91)[edit]

In 1988, DIC Animation City and CINAR (later Cookie Jar Entertainment; both are now subsidiaries of DHX Media) adapted the first book into an animated television special for HBO.^[2] The screenplay was written by Judy Rothman, who was writer, lyricist and story editor for nearly all subsequent Madeline animated projects.^[3] The special was narrated by Christopher Plummer,^[4] and featured original music and songs by veteran Sesame Street songwriter and composer Joe Raposo^[5]^[6] with lyrics by Judy Rothman and Howard Ashman. The special was nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program (One Hour or Less).^[7] In 1990, the special was released onto VHS by Hi-Tops Video, which erronously credits it only to DIC.

Between 1990 and 1991, CINAR and France Animation produced animated adaptations of the other five original books for The Family Channel,^[2] with Christopher Plummer returning as narrator^[4] and Marsha Moreau returning to voice Madeline.^[8] Each special featured new songs, with lyrics by Rothman and music by Jeffrey Zahn, who replaced Raposo after his death in 1989. "I'm Madeline", Madeline's theme song from the original special, was reprised. The specials were released on video by Golden Book Video.

Television series[edit]

In 1993, DIC produced a Madeline television series, which also aired on the Family Channel. Twenty episodes were produced for the first series.^[2] Christopher Plummer reprised his role as narrator again^[4] and "I'm Madeline" was the series' theme song, but most of the voice actors were replaced. The series was rerun on Disney Channel, Playhouse Disney and Toon Disney in the U.S. It features new songs with music by Andy Street (who replaced Jeffrey Zahn) and lyrics by Rothman, but compared to the previous TV specials, the first series onwards would only feature one song per episode in addition to the aforementioned theme songs.

In 1995, an additional 13 episodes were produced by DIC for ABC under the title The New Adventures of Madeline.^[2] The episodes featured a new theme song, "Hats Off to Madeline", music by Andy Street with lyrics by Judy Rothman.^[9] This series also featured a new voice cast which included Andrea Libman as the title character, S. Louise Vallance as both Miss Clavel and Genevieve, and David Morse from Maple Ridge, Canada as Pepito.

DIC produced the animated direct-to-video film Madeline: Lost in Paris, which was released in 1999, featuring Madeline being drawn into a scam by her supposed "Uncle" Horst and finding the true meaning to the word "family". Andrea Libman voiced Madeline.^[10]^[11]

Between 2000 and 2001, DIC produced 26 episodes for the Disney Channel. The theme song was changed to "Our Madeline" (although overseas screenings and syndicated reruns on Toon Disney had "Hats Off to Madeline" as the opening theme). Christopher Gaze took over from Christopher Plummer as narrator. The show won a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Children's Animated Program.

In 2002, a telefilm was produced by DIC, My Fair Madeline aired on CBBC in the UK and on Nickelodeon in the US as part of its Sunday Movie Toons series. This film had many if not all of the voice cast replaced, most notably featuring Whoopi Goldberg as Miss Clavel.

Another film was produced in 2005 by DiC, titled Madeline in Tahiti. It wasn't released to the public until 2007, and fell into obscurity until being released on ITunes and Amazon Video in 2015. This is the final Madeline production to have been created. Some of the cast of My Fair Madeline reprised their roles, with some characters gaining new voice actors.

Madeline was shown on KOL Secret Slumber Party on CBS between Fall 2006 and 2007.^[2]

Broadcast and home video rights to all of the DIC/CINAR Madeline episodes/specials/telefilm/direct-to-video film are owned by DHX Media, as of October 22, 2012.
