A portly quartet of playful creatures who live and learn in Teletubbyland is the focus of this live-action program developed by former teacher Anne Wood for younger children. The series became an unlikely subject for controversy when, in 1998, Rev. Jerry Falwell criticized it for promoting a `gay agenda' by having one character carry a bag that resembled a purse. That storm passed quickly, and the show's continued success prompted Wood to create another children's series, `Boobah.'
