Franklin is a children's animated television series that aired for six seasons on Nickelodeon's Nick Jr. block of programming from 1997 to 2003. Franklin is based on a series of books written by Paulette Bourgeois and illustrated by Brenda Clark. The show follows the adventures of a turtle named Franklin as he lives and learns in a town called Woodland. Franklin lives with his mother, father, sister, and his pet goldfish, Goldie. Woodland is littered with all kinds of other creatures that are friends to Franklin including Bear, Beaver, Badger, Fox, Rabbit, and Snail. Woodland is home to all the standbys of a normal community like a shopping district, roads, a school, town hall, and a farm. Franklin and his friends spend their time exploring the town and learning various lessons. Sports are a popular hobby of the gang as they have been known to play baseball, soccer, and hockey; with hockey being a favorite of Franklin's. In addition to these sports, Franklin is also the school chess champion. Episodes of Franklin are split up into two eleven minute shorts played back-to-back.MORE
