| Reality Bites: PBS plays Fetch! with “Tweens” Hosted by an unreal, animated, and slightly neurotic yet lovable and charismatic canine host named Ruff Ruffman, FETCH! is part game show, part reality TV, and part spoof, features real kids, real challenges, and real science. Six real-life “tweenagers” make up the “reality” cast and have no idea what they are getting into as they embark on mystery assignments to test their determination, their daring, and their intellect. The series breaks the mold with its educational and comical take on one of America’s most popular television genres. Targeting six- to ten-year-olds (though Ruff’s humor is entertainingly adult, too), the series is spontaneous and full of surprises. Schedule a recording and see what Ruff Ruffman, FETCH! brings to YOU and yours. And feel free to let me know if I was barking up the wrong tree… Back to top |
