Tut-en-stein is an animated show featuring the resurrected mummy of an Egyptian boy-king. After the discovery of his tomb, the entire burial chamber with artifacts is brought to a metropolitan museum for a permanent exhibit and scientific research. Tut comes alive shortly after his arrival and connects with Cleo, a teen-age museum intern and her cat Luxor. Each episode teaches the audience about Egyptian history, mythology and belief systems. Because Tuts resurrection is a secret, Cleo has to draw on her knowledge of Egyptology to understand the mummy and his frame of reference. More importantly, she and Tut use the characters, gods, demons, and articles from the tomb to solve the many problems they encounter when Tut forgets the rules of engagement and ventures out into the world on his own.

Boys and girls get to show how well they know each other, how effectively they can manage a budget, and how skilfully they can execute a design plan in Trading Spaces: Boys vs. Girls. Each week a boy or girl will be given two days and $5000 to complete a renovation of their partner's "room". The space might be a bedroom, a recreation room, or a club house, but the "designer" has to show his or her knowledge of the other person's preferences, hobbies and lifestyle to come up with a good design. Then, the challenge of balancing the budget and figuring out the renovation process begins. Participants will learn measurement, spatial reasoning and principles of aesthetic design as they go through the experience. In the end, they will find out if their knowledge and perception of their partner was on or off base.

SCOUTS SAFARI follows the development of 14-year-old Scout Lauer, whose divorced parents have to quickly move Scout from her fathers home in New York City to her mothers home on a game reserve in South Africa. The overarching goal of the series is for our main character, Scout, to model a learning process for the audience that charts her socio-emotional growth as she adjusts to a completely new life in South Africa. By the end of each episode, Scout will have moved from one level of knowledge to a higher level of knowledge or insight. Specific objectives are to show how Scout makes a good transition into her blended family with a stepfather and new brother, makes new friends in a completely different system, understands different religious and cultural belief systems, and defines a place for herself where she feels secure and confident about her future. As the first childrens show actually filmed on location in an African animal reserve, Scouts Safari will expose the audience to factually accurate content about threats to the natural environment and preserving animal species in their natural habitats.
