TUTENSTEIN is a resurrected ten-year-old boy mummy who thinks that he is still King Tut-Ankh-en-Set-Amun, Pharaoh and ruler of the world. Little does he understand that three millennia have passed and everything around him has changed. The shows educational content includes Egyptology and social-emotional messages. Egyptology is presented through the introduction of historically accurate depictions of myths, legends, demons and gods. In each story Tut and his sidekicks, Cleo and her cat, Luxor, have an adventure where the ancients are resurrected as allies or enemies in a conflict that takes place in modern times. Most of the socio-emotional lessons revolve around learning to plan, being less selfish, and considering the consequences of impulsive behavior. Cleo is usually the voice of reason for Tut, as she is the one who has to problem-solve their way out of each escapade they encounter.

TIME WARP TRIO consists of three curious boys Fred, Sam and Joe who are transported through time via a mysterious magic book that is presented to Joe by his magician uncle. The Book warps the boys backward or forward in time, before disappearing, to experience extraordinary adventures where they partake in the makings of history as they search for the magical book to return home. When the boys are warped into the future, they come face to face with their own great-granddaughters Freddi, Samantha and Jodie who have also inherited The Book over time. Through their time-travels, the six kids periodically bump into one another and help each other to locate The Book while outsmarting their adversaries so they can warp back home. The show embeds interesting historical facts in a way that blends action, adventure and fun that appeals to a young audience.

JEFF CORWIN UNLEASHED has one overarching goal; to show the audience the importance of ecological balance and wildlife conservation. Every episode features the naturalist and environmentalist, Jeff Corwin, on his worldwide travels. Jeff is a no frills traveler, interested in documenting and sharing with the audience an abundance of information about animal habitats, zoology, species evolution and ecosystems. In each episode, the viewers will see Jeff go deep into forests, swamps, deserts, mountains, and rivers to find unusual and rare animals from different countries. He always goes right to the original habitat, pointing out historical facts along the way, so our audience not only understands where the animals live, but why and how the animals exist in their particular ecosystem.

DARCYS WILD LIFE follows the life of 15-year-old Darcy Fields, the pampered daughter of a top Hollywood movie-star who was plucked out of a life of limos, movie-premiers and world class restaurants to live a no frills life in rural Idaho. Darcys initial resentment gives way to optimism as she makes new friends and becomes a part of the community. The educational goal of the program is for the main character, Darcy, to model the learning process in adjusting to a new environment that is the complete antithesis of her old life. Darcy comes to a deeper understanding of herself, the value of relationships, and the insignificance of material things. This occurs as she adjusts to her new surroundings and a new group of friends who have totally different perspectives on life. Specific objectives are to show Darcy, with her Hollywood mentality, navigating her way through life on a farm and relating to people who have a different outlook on life. The viewer will also learn about the care and treatment of a variety of animals that live on farms or in the wild.
