CURIOUS GEORGE: A Halloween Boo Fest Program Description
Airs Monday, October 27 and Friday, October 31
It’s George’s first Halloween in the country, and Bill tells him and
Allie about the “Legend of No Noggin” – a spooky tale about a
hat-kicking scarecrow who haunts the countryside on Halloween. But is
the legend real? George and Allie are determined to find out by taking a
picture of No Noggin in hat-kicking action. But first, George needs to
figure out what he’s going to be for Halloween so he can win the costume
contest at the town Boo Festival and give the prize to the Man with the
Yellow Hat. Will George be able to put together the perfect costume and
find out the truth about No Noggin? Only the curious will find out!
New Season 9 CURIOUS GEORGE Episodes Descriptions and Listings
“Submonkey/Double-Oh-Monkey Tracks Trouble”
Premieres Tuesday, October 28
“Submonkey” - When Professor Pizza’s birthday
present is dragged away by a strong ocean current, George volunteers to
take an undersea adventure in a monkey-sized submarine to retrieve it.
Can the curious little monkey locate a small package at the bottom of
the ocean or will Pizza’s present be forever lost at sea?
“Double-Oh-Monkey Tracks Trouble” - Double-Oh-Monkey
takes on his most important case yet – to prevent Steve’s
well-intentioned (but always disastrous) “good luck present” from
ruining Betsy’s dance recital! Using his super spy skills and all five
of his senses, George tracks down Steve and discovers…a bucket of wet
paint?! Can George warn Betsy in time? Or will her dance recital get a
splash of color?
“Monkey Goes Batty/Curious George and the Balloon Hound”
Premieres Wednesday, October 29
“Monkey Goes Batty” - A hole in the roof
means George and the Man with the Yellow Hat must sleep in the living
room while their bedrooms are being repaired. But their adventure
quickly turns into a disaster when George’s nightly trips to the kitchen
keep the Man with the Yellow Hat awake at night. Can George figure out a
way to quietly find his way to the refrigerator in the dark?
“Curious George and the Balloon Hound” - George and
Hundley are amazed by all the flying machines at the museum’s aviation
exhibit. So when Hundley’s souvenir airship flies out of reach in the
lobby, he dreams he is British flying ace, Leftenant Doxie. Joined by
the daring flyboy Chuck Monkey, the dynamic duo uses propeller power as
they race towards the finish line. When Hundley awakens from his dream,
he has a few new ideas on how to get his ceiling-bound toy within reach.
“George’s Photo Finish/Monkey Mystery Gift”
Premieres Thursday, October 30
“George’s Photo Finish” - Today is the big unveiling
of the Ankylosaurus dinosaur skeleton at the museum, but it’s missing a
leg! George and the Man with the Yellow Hat thought they delivered all
four bones. Where did the fourth bone go? Fortunately, Mr. Quint took
pictures on their way to the museum. Maybe the photos can lead them to
the bone…if they can only figure out which order to put them in.
“Monkey Mystery Gift” - George and Allie’s
imaginations run wild as they brainstorm what could be in the large
unmarked box on George’s doorstep. Based on its weight, sound, smell and
bristly hair, they’re certain it’s a baby goat! But what’s really
inside surprises them more than anything they could ever have imagined.
