Next, in "Oooh y," Olie and Billy set up a frightening fun house to e the little kids, but Zowie and Binky scream with laughter when it's the big boy 'bots who get spooked.

Winner of the 2000 Daytime Emmy(R) Award for Outstanding Special Class Animated Program, your preschoolers are sure to have a ball with their favorite robot pal and his fun-filled adventures! .com ---- To describe Playhouse Disney's perennial preschool favorite, think Teletubbies meets the Jetsons. This loving, traditional family--Mr. And Mrs. Polie, 6-year-old Olie, sister Zowie, and Grandpa Pappy--are hairless beings with antennas, glassy eyes, and noodle arms, set in a fruit-striped, computer-animated household of living appliances. Okey-dokey? While parents scratch their heads as to what makes this program work, preschoolers are enamored with the soothing storylines, predictable endings, and deliberate pace of the Emmy-award winning show. A trio of hardly haunted tales makes up this celebratory 24-minute video. If Charlie Brown gets the Great Pumpkin, then Olie can dream of the giant orange Spookie Ookie, which he does in "The Legend of Spookie Ookie." In "Oooh y," Olie and his pal Billy plan to give Zowie the fright of her life but the shivers come back to haunt them, much to her delight. And in "Zowie Queen of the Pumpkins," the spookie-ookiest day of the year becomes a sweet memory of dancing with spook-o-lanterns when Zowie meets a midnight friend in the pumpkin patch.
