Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:More citations needed Шаблон:Infobox television Danger Rangers is an American animated television series that aired on PBS Kids from September 5, 2005 to December 26, 2006.

Plot

The Danger Rangers are a team of anthropomorphic animal heroes who teach children about safety through examples, such as environmental hazards and unsafe places. Each episode contains a music video or two featuring the characters.

Characters

  • Sully (voiced by Jerry Houser) is a blue sea lion. He is the leader and spokesanimal of the Danger Rangers. He cares a lot about his appearance, but also takes his duties as leader seriously.
  • Kitty (voiced by Grey DeLisle) is a pink cat. She is the intelligent, cool and adventurous second-in-command of the group. She is also helpful and resourceful, and strongly believes in playing fair.
  • Burble (voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson) is a large polar bear. He is the strong and humorous recreational safety expert. He is also the group's "gentle giant" and prefers to play both fair and safe.
  • Squeeky (voiced by Rob Paulsen) is a navy blue mouse. He is small, yet very valuable to the Danger Rangers. With his size, he can fix any problem which otherwise proves to be too small for the others to handle.
  • Burt (voiced by Mark Hamill) is a green turtle. He is the team's creative and genuine personal safety expert. As the team's inventor, Burt always comes up with inventions, including Fallbot, that would help the Danger Rangers in their missions.
  • Gabriela "GB" (voiced by Tasia Valenza) is a red hummingbird. She is the operations chief and head safety trainer. While the other members go out on the field during a mission, she usually acts as a supervisor.
  • Fallbot (voiced by John Kassir) is a blue-and-yellow robot who was invented by Burt. He is the very clumsy and accident-prone ally of the Danger Rangers.
  • SAVO (voiced by Jonathan Harris in "Mission 547: Safety Rules", Charlie Adler in other episodes) is the artificial intelligence of the Danger Rangers' base who alerts them of any safety trouble. His name is an acronym for "Safety Alert Vectometer" (as shown in "Mission 547: Safety Rules"). He also somewhat has a flair for the dramatic.
  • Junior Danger Rangers are various children who help and work along with the Danger Rangers.

Production

Douglas Smith and Michael Moore hired ProMedia of Knoxville TN to develop a low fidelity prototype that was used to conceptualize the aspirational goal of the animation. Chris West an employee of ProMedia was a valued contributing member of their team and was instrumental in developing the original prototype. After raising the necessary capital to produce the pilot episode "Mission 547" Smith and Moore traveled to Los Angeles where Jerry Houser, Larry Huber, Ginny McSwain, Howard Kazanjian and Ilie Agopian brought the pilot to life.

The first Hollywood production was completed in 2003. The show was created from the cause of children's safety and was the first show to successfully put Disney-quality productions into a quality curriculum. Danger Rangers was the most successfully distributed independent show on PBS affiliates and was documented to have saved lives.[1]

Broadcast

The series originally aired on PBS Kids under the American Public Television brand from 2005 to 2006. Reruns were distributed by Cookie Jar Entertainment and aired on CBS as part of Cookie Jar TV from September 2011 to September 2012, but was edited for commercial television purposes, which included having the epilogue of the episode cut, resulting in showing only 14 out of 16 episodes on that network.

Business dealings and lawsuit

Educational Adventures (the original company behind the show) built distribution through grassroots efforts and deals with Virgin Atlantic and Safe Kids Worldwide.Шаблон:Citation needed The assets of the company were eventually lost in a lawsuit after the liquidation of the company.[2] This left Mike D. Moore to seek to regain control and restart the show.[3]
