My Week with 2014: Lily's Driftwood Bay

 

Madeline Fretz - Lily's Driftwood Bay was an Irish mixed-media show from Sixteen South Productions, who also brought us Pajanimals.

Sprout described the show as:

"Lily is 5 years old and lives with her Dad in a little hut on the beach. Across the way is Driftwood Bay - the island that Lily can see from her window, and it is here that the characters that she has created from her imagination come to life. Every day the sea washes up a new treasure which sparks Lily's imagination about what might be happening on Driftwood Bay. And so, accompanied by her best friend Gull, the clever seagull, an adventure begins as they go across the way to Lily's Driftwood Bay."


The show premiered on Sprout on May 12th, 2014, a day after Fireman Sam and The Sprout Sharing Show were taken off the schedule. It aired during The Good Night Show and The Sunny Side Up Show.

The show survived both the third generation rebranding in 2015 and the Universal Kids rebranding in 2017, but was one of many shows, also including Astroblast!, Clangers, Zou, Zerby Derby, and Stella and Sam, to get pulled from Universal Kids' lineup in 2018.
