The Why Why Family

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Why Why Family (French: Les Kikekoi and also known as Saban's The Why Why Family) is a French cartoon television series for children, which originally aired in 1996, written by Annabelle Perrichon and François-Emmanuel Porché and produced by Saban Entertainment. Later, in 1998, the show was broadcasted in the United States by FOX.

The show was a collection of a number short 5-minute sketches, each of which centered around a popular scientific question from Baby Victor. This would be followed by an extensive answer by the family member with a particular expertise in the field of science involved in the question. Each episode provided some sort of moral, some including "don't drink carbonated gasoline," and "gasoline cannot be carbonated."
