3-2-1 Penguins!
3-2-1 Penguins! is an American science fiction animated children's television series, initially launched on November 14, 2000, as a direct-to-video episode by Big Idea Entertainment with videos released between 2000 and 2003. The direct-to-video series held the top spot on the Soundscan kid video sales charts for its first 18 weeks of release, was the #1 seller on Christian Booksellers Association's video list in 2001, and had sold 1.5 million videos as of February 2009.
The television series aired on the Qubo blocks on NBC, Ion Television and Telemundo as well as the Qubo channel, and later on TBN and Smile of A Child. It ran for three seasons, with the first season consisting of television broadcasts of the six original home videos. Following its conclusion in 2008, it continued in reruns until 2014. The series was a top-ranked show on NBC's Qubo Saturday morning kids block in 2008.
Twin siblings Jason and Michelle are spending the summer with their British grandmother, who they call Grandmum, in Pennsylvania's Poconos region. She has a collection of kitschy ceramic figurines, the most prized of which is four penguins in a rocket ship, a honeymoon gift from her late husband. In the first video, the twins accidentally drop the ship; instead of breaking, it flies into the air and reveals the four penguin figurines are alive and are the crew of the spaceship. One of the twins is then pulled into the ship, using the crew's Galeezle (shrinking) device, and taken on a galactic adventure.
The ensuing adventure ties into the moral dilemma Jason and Michelle had struggled with in the opening scene. For instance in episode Trouble on Planet Wait-Your-Turn, the twins struggle with taking turns playing a new video game and looking through their Granddad's telescope before Jason is transported to a planet of alien vacuums who also have trouble taking turns.
The first season was broadcast on Qubo from September 9, 2006 to December 2, 2006 and consisted of televising the direct-to-video shows that were originally released from November 14, 2000 to July 1, 2003. At the end, each episode, with the exception of the first episode, has the Penguins perform at the Comet Lounge, singing a song related to the moral lesson of the episode.
After airing the original videos in Season 1, Big Idea released new stories that were first aired on television for Season 2 and 3.
After originally being released exclusively on direct-to-home videos, 3-2-1 Penguins first aired on the Qubo blocks on NBC, Ion Television, and Telemundo, as well as on the Qubo channel with the airing of the original videos. This was soon followed with new episodes that premiered on television. The show also aired on TBN and its children's block Smile of a Child on Saturdays until 2018. It also airs on DreamWorks Channel in select countries.
As of July 2020, the entire series was made available to watch for free on Peacock following its launch. And 25 episodes on Yippee since June 2022.
