Henry's Amazing Animals (show)

Henry's Amazing Animals was a show that ran on the Disney Channel from 1996 to 2000, with episodes being made from 1996 to 1999. The show revolved around a CGI green gecko with purple spots named Henry, who would learn about animals related to the episode's topic, and would also interact with an unseen narrator. The show was not produced by Disney Channel, but rather Partridge Films and Dorling Kindersley. The show began production in 1995, and it would not be until a year or so later that the pilot episode, Tropical Birds, would be broadcast. Said episode introduced the core aspects of the show, including the Golden Gecko Awards, and Henry's comedic report. Ratings for the show were seemingly high during 1996 to 1997, but said ratings would dwindle over time, With 2 more seasons from 1998 to 1999 respectively being greenlit by Disney, though a 5th season seemingly never went into production in 2000, or 2001. Nevertheless, Disney still aired reruns of the show until 2001, making the show last 5 years on the channel, the average maximum. A reboot of the show could happen
