Summaries

An educational television series consisting of brain-teasing animated skits. The animated segments variously featured stop-motion animation and traditional cel-animation. The Digitville segment features a town where the entire populations have numbered items in place of their heads, and there is a theme for number games. The "Tales of Wrongovia" focuses on spotting anachronisms. A historical figure is facing a problem and four different items are offered as solutions. The viewers have to guess which items do not match the figure's time period. The "Museum Mistakes" segment depicts pictures in a museum's collection, and viewers have to notice strange details which do not match their surroundings.—Dimos I
