Maya & Miguel

Maya & Miguel is a half-hour children's television cartoon produced by Scholastic Studios. It appears on PBS as part of the PBS Kids GO! lineup. The show premiered on October 11, 2004.
Centering around the lives of pre-teen Hispanic twins Maya and Miguel Santos and their friends, the program is aimed at promoting multiculturalism and education in general. It is geared to the 5-9 age range. Part of the dialogue in each episode is in Spanish but only individual words or phrases which are explained in English.
The program features well-known voice talent, including Candi Milo, Erik Estrada, Lucy Liu, Carlos Ponce, and Elizabeth Peña.
The artists have an unusual attention to detail. In one episode where Miguel is "flying" a spaceship simulator, we see that it is supported by a Stewart platform.
Maya tends to be impulsive and intuitive, while Miguel tends to think things out before acting. Their bilingual pet parrot, Paco, often gets loose, causing much trouble and confusion.
However, in mid-2005, the "He leads with his head, and she follows her heart" line was changed to "they make a great team as they each do their part."
