Busytown is a magic place whose residents -- mainly talking animals -- are ready to tackle problems and conflicts that arise. Huckle Cat, Lowly Worm, Bananas Gorilla, Sprout Goat and others participate in activities -- including fishing and camping -- and try to solve mysteries that take them from Busytown to far-away spots like Rome and London. And even when things are difficult, the Busytown residents are always ready for a song and a smile. The long-running animated series is based on a popular children's book series by Richard Scarry.
