Background
editIn 1960, the Madeline stories were adapted to a one-hour color episode for the NBC series The Shirley Temple Show. Madeline was played by Gina Gillespie, child actor Michel Petit played Pepito, and Imogene Coca portrayed Miss Clavel. The episode, as Madeline's first appearance on television, has been released to DVD.[citation needed]
Characters
edit- Madeline (voiced by Tracey Lee Smythe in season 1 and Andrea Libman in seasons 2 & 3)[3] is the central protagonist of the show. She is a kind and caring redheaded girl who is the bravest of her group despite being the shortest. She lives in a boarding school with eleven other girls and their instructor, Miss Clavel.
- Miss Clavel (voiced by Louise Vallance in seasons 1 & 3)[3][d] is a teacher that oversees the boarding school in which the girls live. She and her students say grace before every meal. She is seen to be a caring and wise maternal figure to the girls.
- The Eleven Little Girls are eleven classmates that accompany Madeline in her adventures and live in the boarding school as her. Their names are Anne, Chloe, Danielle, Ellie, Janine, Lulu, Monique, Nicole, Nona, Sylvie and Yvette. In the first few seasons and specials, only Chloe, Danielle, and Nicole had significant roles; by the third season, all the girls become more vocal and display their own individual personality.
- Chloe (voiced by Vanessa King in seasons 1 & 2 and Veronika Sztopa in season 3)[3]
- Danielle (voiced by Kelly Sheridan in season 1, Tracey-Lee Smyth: season 2 and Chantal Strand in season 3)
- Nicole (voiced by Kristin Fairlie in season 1, Veronika Sztopa in season 2 and Britt Irvin in season 3)[3]
- Pepito (voiced by A.J. Bond in season 1, David Morse in season 2 and Michael Heyward/Kyle Labine in season 3)[4] is the son of the Spanish ambassador who lives next to the boarding school. Despite being mean and aggressive to Madeline and the girls at first, they soon become friends and he develops a secret crush on Madeline.
- Genevieve (voiced by Louise Vallance)[4][d] is the school's pet, once a stray dog. Madeline has more affection toward her, because Genevieve rescued her from drowning in the River Seine.
- Lord Cucuface (voiced by French Tickner)[3] is the administrator of a chain of boarding schools. He maintains a close friendship with Miss Clavel.
- The Narrator (voiced by Christopher Plummer in the specials, seasons 1 & 2 and Christopher Gaze in season 3[3][4])

Television specials (1988–1991)
editOn November 7, 1988, HBO aired an animated television special titled Madeline. The teleplay was an adaption of the first book written by Ludwig Bemelmans. The later series was written by Judy Rothman who would become a writer, story editor, and lyricist for nearly all subsequent Madeline animated projects. The special was produced by DIC Enterprises and Cinar (now part of WildBrain).[5][6] The special featured Christopher Plummer as the narrator,[7] and featured original music and songs by veteran Sesame Street songwriter and composer Joe Raposo[8][9] with lyrics by Rothman. The cast for all six specials is as follows: [4]
- Marsha Moreau as Madeline
- Judith Orban as Miss Clavel
- Julian Bailey as Pepito
- Anik Matern as Chloe
- Liz MacRae as Danielle
- Sonja Ball as Nicole
The special was nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program (One Hour or Less).[10] In 1990, the special was released onto VHS by Hi-Tops Video. The success of the special led to CINAR and France Animation producing an additional five specials, all adapted by Rothman from the other five original books, for The Family Channel.[5] The cast of the original special and Plummer all returned for the subsequent specials[7] These specials featured music by Jeffrey Zahn, who replaced Raposo after his death in 1989. The theme song from the original special, "I'm Madeline", was reprised in each of the subsequent specials. The specials were released on video by Golden Book Video and Cinar/Sony Wonder in Canada.

Television series (1993–2001)
editWith the success of the specials, The Family Channel commissioned a television series by DIC, which had been involved in the first of the six specials. The first season aired a total of 20 produced episodes from 1993 to 1994.[5] Christopher Plummer reprised his role as the narrator.[7] However, most of the voice actors from the specials were replaced. In addition, Jeffrey Zahn was replaced by Andy Street; compared to the previous specials, however, the series featured only one song per episode (a few of them with a reprise/finale) in addition to the opening theme "I'm Madeline".
In 1995, an additional 13 episodes were produced by DIC for ABC under the title The New Adventures of Madeline.[5] A new theme song, called "Hats Off to Madeline", was used as the new opening theme, with the music by Andy Street and lyrics by Judy Rothman;[11] some early airings of those episodes featured "I'm Madeline", but sung by the new voice cast. Most of the voices of the children characters were replaced, with Andrea Libman assuming the title role, while only Plummer, Louise Vallance and French Tickner return from the voice cast.
Shortly after its airing on ABC, both the network and DIC were acquired by The Walt Disney Company. The 39 produced episodes and specials began to air in reruns on the Playhouse Disney block of Disney Channel. In March 1998, DIC announced the launch of a direct-to-video division that would produce films that Disney would distribute worldwide through Buena Vista Home Entertainment, with a Madeline film being the first of the films they would produce.[12] The following year, the title was revealed as Madeline: Lost in Paris, and was released in August of the same year.[13] Most of the cast members from the 1995 iteration returned with Lauren Bacall and Jason Alexander also voicing new roles. DIC afterwards produced 26 new episodes for Playhouse Disney;[14] Christopher Gaze replaced Plummer as the show's narrator for budgetary reasons. The show won a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Children's Animated Program.
Two more films followed ahead - My Fair Madeline, which aired on Nickelodeon in November 2002 as part of the DIC Movie Toons series, and Madeline in Tahiti.
Madeline has continued to be shown in syndication. In the 2006-2007 season, the series was shown on CBS' KOL Secret Slumber Party Saturday morning block.[5] Qubo also aired reruns of the series from October 6, 2018 to February 22, 2021.[15] The series was also included in the On-Demand section of Sprout from 2015 to 2017, when the channel was rebranded to Universal Kids. As of September 2019, all broadcast and home video rights of Madeline are owned by WildBrain.

Films (1999–2005)
editMadeline: Lost in Paris (1999)
editOn August 3, 1999, Buena Vista Home Video through Walt Disney Home Video released the feature-length film Madeline: Lost in Paris, featuring Madeline being drawn into a scam by her supposed "Uncle" Horst and finding the true meaning to the word "family". As with Season 2 and eventually Season 3 of the series, Andrea Libman reprised her role as Madeline.[18][19]
The film was later re-released on DVD on April 3, 2010, by Shout! Factory.
My Fair Madeline (2002)
editIn 2002, as a part of the DIC Movie Toons series of Television films, DIC produced a film, titled My Fair Madeline, where Madeline is falsely accused of misbehavior on a trip to the Louvre and is sent to a London Finishing School, while attempting to foil the plot of two thieves. The voice cast was almost entirely replaced for the film, with Chantal Strand voicing Madeline and Whoopi Goldberg as Miss Clavel. Coincidentally, Goldberg played Deloris Van Cartier in Sister Act, who is also a nun character.
The film was originally aired on November 17, 2002, on Nickelodeon and was later released onto VHS and DVD by MGM Home Entertainment followed on with international airings on Disney Channel, Toon Disney and Playhouse Disney.
Madeline in Tahiti (2005)
editIn 2005, DIC produced another film, titled Madeline in Tahiti, which is the final Madeline production to have been created. The film features Madeline and her friends going on a vacation to Tahiti to stop Miss Clavel from retiring, with Pepito sneaking along, as well as stopping a villainous plot to erupt the Tahiti-nui volcano. Chantal Strand reprised her role as Madeline while other characters were recast or reprised their roles from My Fair Madeline; most notably, Ashleigh Ball voiced both Danielle and Nona.
The film was originally going to be released on DVD in the United States by Walt Disney Home Entertainment[20] in 2006, but this release never saw the light of the day. It was, however, released on DVD in some regions in 2007 through other distributors, and was eventually released in the United States on iTunes and Amazon Video in 2015 and YouTube in 2020.
