Hey guys. So, i was looking around on the internet and decided to search for a couple of shows from my childhood. After seeing how little i could find on them, i decided to post the facts here. I could use a few more leads on this, though. Well, without further ado, here are the two shows.

CHIP N' ORBIT:
This show, according to a post on the dated January 2001 on the Corus website, who were the owners of YTV, the show first aired on Febuary 6, 2001. It was about two robots, who lived inside a TV, and would play games with the viewers in a game show style. Apparently, it was YTV's first in-house animation. According to the LinkedIn of one of the creators, Michael Decsi, around 70 episodes of the show were made. The only footage i could find was a 38 second clip, posted on January 23rd,2012, as seen above. The rest of the episode, as well as the other 69 or so, are assumed lost, but don't quote me on that.

THE BITTLES
While doing research for Chip and orbit, i stumbled into another childhood show of mine, this one being The Bittles. It was aired on Treehouse TV as well as YTV. Apparently, 26 episodes of the show were produced. The show was about a team of puppets carrying out a heavy duty operation to turn stories into books. There were four characters at least in the show, Comma, who made the text, Lolly, the puppet who was in charge of the illustrations, Rocco, who was the chief of the operation, and The Grump, the reluctant backbone. Every episode would include the reading of at least 2 Kids Can Press books. All i canould find of the show was a single screenchot, seen above
And there you have it. If you have any leads on these 2 shows, please infrom me in the comments below
