The Backyardigans is a computer-animated musical children's TV series created by Janice Burgess. The serial was written and recorded at Nickelodeon Animation Studio.[vii] It centers on five animal neighbors who imagine themselves on fantastic adventures in their backyard. Each episode is gear up to a different musical genre and features four songs, equanimous by Evan Lurie with lyrics by McPaul Smith. The Backyardigans' adventures span many different genres and settings. The show'due south writers took inspiration from action-adventure movies, and many episodes are parodies of movies.

Nickelodeon called the show "a home-grown Nick Jr. property," as "the whole creative team... [had] been part of the Nick Jr. family for years."[4] Creator Janice Burgess had worked as Nick Jr.'s product executive since the mid-1990s. The Backyardigans originated as a live-action pilot episode titled "Me and My Friends," filmed at Nickelodeon Studios Florida in 1998. The characters were played by full-trunk puppets on an indoor stage. The airplane pilot was rejected past Nickelodeon, and Burgess decided to rework the concept into an animated series. In 2002, a second airplane pilot was animated at Nickelodeon Digital in New York. The second airplane pilot was successful, and the series entered product.

The testify ran for four seasons totaling 80 episodes. The first iii seasons aired on Nickelodeon on weekday mornings. Nickelodeon merely aired eight of the fourth season's 20 episodes; the remaining episodes aired exclusively on the split Nick Jr. channel. In 2009, the show was planned to keep across the 4th season.[8] However, in 2010, the serial' creator Janice Burgess decided to move onto a different series: Nickelodeon's revival of Winx Social club. Burgess worked every bit a creative director and author for Winx Club before eventually retiring from Nickelodeon in 2014.

The Backyardigans was critically acclaimed. Many critics felt that The Backyardigans was superior to Nickelodeon's other preschool shows considering its writing was sophisticated and enjoyable for older viewers. The New York Times and Common Sense Media commended the show for including frequent nods to an older audience,[9] such as references to action-chance franchises. The quality of the show's music was likewise praised by critics, and the show received 8 Daytime Emmy Honor nominations for its music.

Plot

The show centers around a grouping of v animal neighbors: Uniqua, Pablo, Tyrone, Tasha, and Austin.[ten] [11] They share a large backyard between their houses. In each episode, they meet in the backyard and imagine themselves on a fantastical adventure. Their adventures span a variety of different genres and settings; many episodes involve visiting dissimilar parts of the world, traveling dorsum or forwards in time, and using magic or supernatural powers. The characters give themselves dissimilar jobs or roles depending on the episode's imaginary setting, such as detectives, knights, or scientists. From the second season onward, many episodes are parodies of action-take chances films such equally James Bond, Star Expedition, Indiana Jones, and Ghostbusters.

The openings and endings of the episodes follow a similar pattern. The stories begin with the characters in the lawn, introducing themselves and explaining the scenario they are virtually to imagine. When the Backyardigans finish their adventure, the fantasy sequence fades, restoring the original backyard setting. The characters sing a endmost vocal, then walk inside their houses for a snack and close the door. As the episode ends, at least i graphic symbol reopens the door and shouts a phrase related to the adventure.

The show follows the format of a stage musical. Each episode is prepare to a dissimilar genre of music and features four songs. The characters sing and trip the light fantastic toe to the songs with original choreography. The song and trip the light fantastic routines are often used to innovate a character's imaginary function, further the plot, or explain a problem. In improver to singing songs in a new genre each episode, the show's background music changes to match, scoring all of the Backyardigans' actions.

Episodes

Product

I really enjoy a large risk. I recall Die Difficult is one of the greatest films ever, not to mention Terminator two. I dearest those big films... I wanted to bring some of that fantastical nature to young children, but to do it in a mode that is safe, hopefully not scary, and not 'imitatable' except in your head.

— Janice Burgess on the inspirations for The Backyardigans [viii]

Janice Burgess, creator of The Backyardigans

Janice Burgess drew inspiration from action films[19] when writing episodes of the bear witness, every bit she wanted to adapt loftier-stakes stories for a young audience.[8] In an interview with the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Burgess was asked what inspired the show; she responded, "I know this is going to audio very strange, but the things I really draw upon are action films. I like Dice Hard, Star Wars, the Tolkien movies ... I thought it would be fun to have kids on that large adventure."[twenty] The character of Uniqua was based on how Burgess viewed herself every bit a child; as a result, Uniqua was written as the leader of the Backyardigans, and Uniqua was the only character who appeared in every episode.

Before Nickelodeon ordered the first flavor, ii airplane pilot episodes of The Backyardigans were fabricated. The showtime was a live-action pilot titled "Me and My Friends,"[21] filmed at Nickelodeon Studios in September 1998.[22] The characters were played by total-torso puppets who danced on an indoor phase. The pilot was rejected past Nickelodeon, and Janice Burgess decided to rework the concept into an animated show. In 2002, a second pilot was created; it was a figurer-animated short produced at Nickelodeon Digital.[23] The second airplane pilot was greenlit by Nickelodeon to become a total-length serial. Nickelodeon called the evidence "a home-grown Nick Jr. property," as "the whole creative team... [had] been role of the Nick Jr. family for years."[4]

In December 2009, Nick Jr. president Brown Johnson stated that Nickelodeon intended to proceed the evidence running for "at least another five years. Maybe forever."[8] Nickelodeon believed that The Backyardigans was an ideal "evergreen" property: a series that would stay in production for a long time through multiple generations. A fifth season was planned in 2009.[viii] Even so, in 2010, Janice Burgess decided to terminate The Backyardigans to start working on one of Nickelodeon Animation Studio'due south newer projects: a revival serial of Winx Club, a girls' action-adventure franchise. Burgess brought the former Backyardigans crew onto Winx Club also. This included lyricist McPaul Smith; writers Jeff Borkin, Adam Peltzman, and Carin Greenberg; line producer Sara Kamen; and script coordinator Jonathan Foss. Burgess worked as the creative manager, story editor, and writer on Winx Order.[24] The crew considered it a natural progression, as Winx Order was also a musical activeness-adventure evidence, but it targeted an older audience, assuasive them to branch out.

The Backyardigans received eight Daytime Emmy Laurels nominations, and Janice Burgess won the 2008 Emmy for Outstanding Special Class Animated Program.[25] In a 2016 article for The Chicago Tribune, drama critic Chris Jones called The Backyardigans "a fabulously inventive Television set bear witness."[26] DVD Talk 's John Crichton gave the show a "hearty recommendation," citing its "enjoyable (and varied) music score, the character voices (both spoken and singing) and the impressive visual presentation."[27] Slate named the Backyardigans episode "The Swamp Beast" i of the all-time episodes of children's tv set.[28]

Critics noted that the series held wide appeal to older viewers, due to its loftier-quality music and focus on character-driven, non-educational stories. Susan Stewart of The New York Times said "it'due south hard to say whether The Backyardigans is a fantasy for children or for their parents,"[9] commending the prove'due south animation and storytelling. Mutual Sense Media's Emily Ashby wrote, "It's not always easy to find a testify yous similar equally much as your youngsters do, but The Backyardigans definitely has the potential to fit that pecker."[29] Journalist Virginia Heffernan wrote, "with each episode devoted not merely to a dissever quest but besides to a different musical genre...the show blows yous away with its artistic exactitude."[xxx]

In 2021, the songs "Castaways" and "Into the Thick of It" went viral on TikTok, with the one-time appearing in more than 745,000 videos[31] and the latter actualization in more than than 46,000 videos as of June 2021.[32] Due to their success on TikTok, "Castaways" and "Into the Thick of It" reached number 5 and xiii respectively on the Spotify viral l nautical chart in the Us for the week start on June 10, 2021.[33]
