Wiki.
HaBigbagim (Hebrew: הביגבגים, English: The Big Bug Show) is an Israeli educational television program for preschoolers, which aired on the Israeli children's channel Arutz HaYeladim between 1998 and 2000.
The big bugs are five puppet insects who broadcast in a self-made TV station. Throughout the show they talk and learn about colors, imagination, friendship, responsibility etc. and also sing songs.
The names of the characters based by jazz musicians like: Dizzy (Dizzy Gillespie), Louis (Louis Armstrong), Ella (Ella Fitzgerald), Billie (Billie Holiday) and Chick (Chick Corea).
The puppets were designed by Shai Charka, but were created in the United Kingdom.
That show has a huge success in Israel, in result that show sold to several non-US countries (including the United Kingdom, Latin America, Portugal and Singapore).
