In the 1990s, ‘Wishbone,’ a beloved PBS series, captivated audiences with its unique blend of children’s entertainment and adaptations of classic stories. Soccer, the canine actor, brought to life characters in tales such as ‘Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde,’ ‘Robin Hood,’ and ‘The Phantom of the Opera.’ Over 50 episodes and a film, ‘Wishbone’s Dog Days of the West,’ the series became a staple in many households.
Decades after the show’s conclusion, the original creators return to share the story behind ‘Wishbone’ in a new documentary, ‘What’s the Story, Wishbone?’ This film delves into its rise and unexpected end, shedding light on the creative process and impact of the series. The documentary aims to offer insights into ‘Wishbone’s’ enduring relevance.
Betty A. Buckley, producer of both the original series and the new documentary, recalls the set memories and emphasizes the importance of valuing young audiences. She believes the show’s respect for its viewers helped it maintain cultural significance over the years.
‘What’s the Story, Wishbone?’ is currently available on Public Television Stations and will be released on digital platforms on June 10.
