The Adventures of Raggedy Ann and Andy is an American animated television series that aired on CBS from September 17 to December 24, 1988. Based on the dolls Raggedy Ann and Andy by Johnny Gruelle, the series was produced directly by CBS in honor of the 70th anniversary of the characters. The series was cancelled in 1989, although CBS aired reruns during the 1989–90 television season, and in August 1991 when Pee-Wee's Playhouse was shelved.
