The Kingdom of the Potatoes is a very calm place. A castle, rolling hills, and A DRAGON'S CAVE. A curse on Hugo III, king of the Potatoes. To put an end to this calamity, Hugo III calls upon all knights specialized in dragon-slaying, promising his daughter's hand to the succesful candidate. From that moment on, all manner of knights, for the most part unratified, try to vanquish the beast and win the royal beauty. But the king's daughter, Princess Melodine, is in love with Riri, the court jester! For their love to last, no knight must vanquish the dragon. Riri secretly devises different means to foil and cover each pretender with ridicule, sometimes with the help of his faithful friend Juju, othertimes with the talents of Merlin the Magician. Detectives, boy bands, revolutionaries and horseshoe-throwing champions are but a few of the hapless candidates in for foreseeable disappointment.
TF! Jeunesse is a French children's television program. It launched on September 1, 1997, replacing Club Dorothée. The program was renamed TFOU in 2007.
TF! Jeunesse first appeared on Monday, September 1, 1997 at 4:30 in the afternoon on TF1, with the first episode of Beetleborgs. TF! Jeunesse was created by Dominique Poussier, the director of children's television for TF1. It was hoped that this new show would distance itself from its predecessor, whose shows had often been accused by parents and the Conseil supérieur de l'audiovisuel of being too violent. Poussier had previously created the morning program Salut les Toons!, which was presented by two CGI-generated mice, in 1996.

Freaky is a New Zealand children's program that began in 2003, and made by Avalon Productions. It features short episodes about odd phenomena and eerie situations facing children. Usually the protagonist is a boy or girl who starts by trying to do something normal and ordinary, ending up facing an alien, supernatural or weird force of some kind. This is both a fantasy and science fiction show, with aliens, portals and time travel. Often it has a low level horror aspect as well, as in ghost visitations. It is comparable to a children's version of The Twilight Zone. It is set in New Zealand in ordinary locations such as houses, malls and schools.
Most of the episodes have one word in their titles. Some episodes show real-life companies; for example, Allens Lollies and Fantastic Noodles are in the "Trolley" episode, and the Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets game is in the "Mirror" episode.
It aired originally in 2003 in New Zealand, and subsequently on the ABC network in Australia.
