Best Show or Series – Children’s
Winner
The Chica Show – Sprout
Preschoolers love dress up and, who doesn’t love a cute, little chicken? Chica got her start on Sprout’s “The Sunny Side Up Show” but appears to be slowly taking over Hollywood (please keep Chica away from Lindsay Lohan). Capitalizing on the puppet’s popularity, the net gave Chica her own show with a mix of live action and animation—plus some catchy singing. Every episode features a visit to the costume shop followed by imaginative adventures.
