My Week with 2010: Tell Us a Fable

Madeline Fretz - Aesop's Fables are timeless stories that continue to be told to today’s children in many ways. One of them was on TV.

The company Smartoonz produced a show called "Little Fables" that later aired on Sprout during The Good Night Show in 2010 as "Nina's Little Fables," narrated by Nina and Star. The show replaced Make Way for Noddy, which left, on the schedule. Noddy returned to Sprout in 2012.

Nina's Little Fables was for parents who complained about the block not having a "turning point." As some sort of story told during the block (most shows on the schedule were story-like), parents could turn it off after Nina's Little Fables, and have a night of sweet dreams. The show likewise left Sprout when Season 6 of The Good Night Show premiered with the new "Sandy Stories" segment.
