The series, which put out new episodes between 1987 and 1989, totaled 91 x 10-minute episodes that were often repackaged as 56 x 25-minute episodes. It originally aired on TVE (Spain), and was later broadcast around the world in multiple languages, including RTÉ2 (Ireland), Channel 9 (Greece), Channel 1 and EKids (Bulgaria), TV1 (Malaysia), Mediacorp Channel 8 (Singapore), SABC 1 (South Africa) and TV Kanala D (Serbia). It also aired in the UK on The Children’s Channel and Cartoon Network, which aired the series as part of its slate of morning preschool cartoons.
