The Wiggles

The Wiggles created two seasons, entitled The Wiggles, of their own series. They were produced and shown in Australia in 1998 and 1999, and shown in the U.S. beginning in 2001. It was in these episodes and in their early videos that The Wiggles began their practice of featuring toddlers as performers.

In 2002, The Wiggles began filming three seasons worth of shows exclusively with the ABC: Lights, Camera, Action, Wiggles aired on ABC 4 Kids in 2003, and The Wiggles Show in 2004 and 2005. The network called them "the most successful property that the ABC has represented in the pre-school genre". Paul Field, The Wiggles' general manager, reported that a meeting at a New York licensing fair with Grahame Grassby, the ABC's acting director of enterprises, led to the ABC's "enthusiastic" agreement to produce The Wiggles' TV shows. A sixth season of The Wiggles' television series featuring Sam Moran, who replaced original group member Greg Page in 2006, was filmed and began airing in Australia in 2008, entitled Wiggle and Learn.
