George Shrinks

George Shrinks is a television series based on the children's book by William Joyce. It tells the story of an eight-year-old boy named George Shrinks who wakes up one morning to discover that he has been shrunk to the size of a mouse. The show details his adventures with his friends and family and riding in his "Zooper car".
The series started on September 30, 2000 as part of PBS Kids Bookworm Bunch. The Bookworm Bunch disbanded in 2004, but George Shrinks was given an individual PBS debut on January 6, 2003. The first season consisted of forty episodes, targeted at children five years old and above. The final show aired in the summer of 2004, though it is still in syndication.
George is the narrator of the show. Episodes range from trips to the aquarium to work around the house, vacations with his parents and playing outside. Because of his extreme size, even mundane activities often become dramatic adventures filled with excitement and learning. His primary mode of transportation is his Zooper car, able to transform into a helicopter, submarine, or plane. George often has interesting encounters with animals, who do not talk but show intelligence throughout the series.
The show affects a retro-1940s look, with simple animation and colors. Primarily jazz music is used as for background, reflecting both his father's occupation, his mother's freelance style.
