Shaun the Sheep

For those of out there who are Wallace and Gromit fans, you'll love this new TV show starring Shaun from A Close Shave.

There aren't any words to the show, but after all sheep don't talk. They bleat! The humor is sweet and Shaun always saves the day (as usual!).

Has anyone in the UK seen this show on TV?

Oh wow. Way back in grade school or whenever it came out, I thought Shaun the Sheep was the cutest thing ever. Thanks for sharing!

Aww, the video was removed. I remember Shaun the sheep. The feature-length film of Wallace and Gromit was great! It even had some in-jokes for people who had seen the short films.

Try this link, it should work for you. Otherwise, just search Shaun the Sheep on You Tube. I wish we could order them on DVD, but from what I gather the players in the US aren't compatible with those in the UK.

Hooray for Shaun the Sheep!

I love Wallace and Gromit. It's a little sad that they are all CG now, their first movie being Flushed Away. I have yet to see it. I'm going to add it onto nextflix right now.

At least Shaun the Sheep isn't CG! He's still hand made with clay animation. Take a look at his website for some images of them making each little sheepy.

Wow. The design of the man is similar to the man in the short film, Stage Fright, that accompanies the DVD of Curse of the Wererabbit. That was great! Thanks for the clip!

This is the best bit about it - it gives it it's real quality.

They are playing the show in the UK at the moment and it's great!

I've seen 20 shows posted online - do you know if they've made (or are making) more episodes? Wish I could order them on a DVD playable in the US!

I am not sure how many episodes there are, but they play most days on CBBC in the UK so I would think that there are more than 20! It won't be long before they bring a DVD out, but as yet there doesn't seem to be any news on a release date.

They just introduced Shaun the Sheep on the Disney Channel about a month or so ago. My daughter watched it and said that she liked it. I have not seen it yet myself but I love Wallace and Gromit.

^They did?! ::runs off to find someone with cable::

Glad to hear the show is making the jump across the pond. I just wish they would show it on public TV so anyone could watch.

Aw man - good to hear that! Now maybe they'll consider releasing them on US DVD instead of the UK/Europe only ones...

I would have preferred a Second Wallace and Gromit Cracking Contraptions, but I guess they're getting a little old.
