Greenwood Forest

Greenwood Forest is a Kuboian animated television series produced by Kubokartoonz based on an original idea by Harlow Morrison. The show focuses on Fyp, a nine year-old boy whose father is the mayor of the titular forest, and travels to different parts of the land to help people with their problems.

The show ran for four series airing from 1993 to 1996, with episodes airing on Vision Network as part of its Sunday morning children's programming lineup. Episodes initially aired in 45-minute blocks that generally featured multiple different segments featuring the same cast of characters, although most international markets and reruns shortened the show's runtime to only feature one main segment into a seventeen minute runtime.

Premise
Greenwood Forest is a vibrant, colourful forest inhabited by both humans and non-human creatures. The show stars the son of the forest's mayor, Fyp, who travels to the different parts of the forest, as well as other areas that it's located to, in order to solve any problems currently occurring. Fyp carries a sentient compass called Sticker, whom assist him whenever he is stuck, and is also normally accompanied by either his younger sister Billie, his best friend Whitney and/or his pet Spider.

Format
During its initial premiere, Greenwood Forest was shown under a 45-minute timeslot, and separated into four different segments: The main stories each lasted between fifteen and eighteen minutes whilst the Learn It with Fyp segments lasted approximately four minutes whilst the Fyp's Bright Ideas segments lasted approximately one minute. As every episode ran for 41 minutes, shorter main segments generally featured longer Learn It with Fyp segments.
 * The first segment was a longer story centred around Fyp and his ventures in Greenwood Forest.
 * The second segment was called Learn It with Fyp, and was a short in which Fyp teaches another character an important social lesson (e.g. not telling lies).
 * The third segment followed the same structure as the first segment, being a longer story about Fyp and his friends in Greenwood Forest.
 * The fourth and final segment was called Fyp's Bright Ideas, which were quick segments which typically involved Fyp and company playing a game or making things with arts and crafts.

When the show was reran, only one main segment was aired under a 20-minute time frame, and most international regions followed similarly. However, some international regions aired one main story with either a Learn It with Fyp segment or multiple Fyp's Bright Ideas shorts in order to fit it into a half-hour format.

Specials
Although the show had ended its run by 1996, Harlow Morrison was inspired to revive it for a trilogy of 30-minute specials after it became popular again following reruns on Tiny Vision. These specials and their air dates were:
 * Fyp and the Christmas Wish - 24th December 1999
 * Fyp's Spring Fever - 15th April 2001
 * Fyp and the Golden Key - 12th March 2002
