Fan Page: The Littles

[aurora77]

The Littles was a staple around my house.  I loved Lucy Little, Grandpa Little and their adorable pet turtle, Slick.  I used to wonder what it would be like to have little people living in the walls.  I was always annoyed by Dinky and his ineptness.  I read some of the books by John Peterson, on which the show was based, but I'd already watched so much of the show that the books just weren't quite as exciting as they would otherwise have been.  I don't remember any toys, but one of my friends had The Littles Board Game, which had an odd three-dimensional board.

I definitely remember this show. They were quite fascinating, as the episodes always ended in a cliffhanger and a nice amount of suspense. (Such things were rare by 1983 animation standards.)

Either way, one of DIC's finer efforts. They have been re-airing, recently, depending on one's syndication station. If not, always YouTube, right?

This is actually on Netflix and my son enjoys this now and again.

I was a lonely child... I used to make teeny-tiny furniture and hide it in the walls of my house and under floorboards. Then I would take my trusty tape recorder and make audio recordings of me "Discovering" the tiny furniture :)

I remember watching The Littles. It wasn't my favorite cartoon, but it was never boring.
