Hello Mrs. Cherrywinkle is a Canadian children's television program that aired from February 3, 1997, to March 26, 1999, on the Family Channel. It centered on the adventures of the title character, Mrs. Cherrywinkle (portrayed by Kathy "Babe" Robinson, of Philadelphia, PA), a stout woman full of energy who interacted with a variety of puppets in her home and garden. The puppets used in the show were created by Noreen Young & Matt Ficner.
Songs for the series were written by Randy Vancourt and Tim Burns.
The show's format was adapted for the French network Télé-Québec from September 13, 1999, to November 28, 2003. American Public Television acquired the show in 1999 for U.S. distribution, with Time-Life Kids obtaining home video rights; Motion International planned to produce more episodes of the show for public television stations if it was successful;[1] however, that would not happen.
