Stickin' Around is a Canadian animated children's television series produced by Nelvana and created by Robin Steele and Brianne Leary.[1] The series originally aired from August 14, 1996, until April 13, 1998.[citation needed] Stickin' Around, originating as a series of one-minute interstitials on CBS in 1994,[2] centered on two best friends named Stacy and Bradley; their hand-drawn adventures with their friends and family; and their fantasies,[3] both encountering many problems they must face as they continue to grow up – with school, bullies, friends, and parents – and always coming up with imaginative ideas to eliminate these obstacles, such as becoming a superhero and putting themselves in a different environment where they have no trouble in defeating their enemies.

According to Nelvana, it uses "the advanced computer graphics of 'Boiler Paint', virtually convincing us that kids are creating their own animated series."[4]

Stickin' Around won the Gemini Award for "Best Animated Program or Series" in the spring of 1998, while being nominated once again during the fall of 1998, for the Gemini of the same award.
