Dragon is a Canadian-German-Korean clay-animated TV show geared towards children aged two to seven, produced by Cite-Amerique, Scopas Medien and Image Plus, aired on Qubo in the United States and Treehouse TV in Canada. It premiered in Canada on January 5, 2004 and in the United States on September 9, 2006. The series is based loosely on the graphic novel series of the same name, written by Dav Pilkey and published by Scholastic.
The show is set in an imaginary world of where Dragon does many things everyday with his friends, Alligator, Beaver, Ostrich, Mail Mouse. Things have been switched since then by animation when the show got renewed for seasons four to eight from clay animation into a mix of the following animations digital 3D, CGI, 2D and clay-animation, for seasons 4 to 6. The ending has been changed since those two seasons
The show was aired on Treehouse TV until June 30, 2012 in Canada. The show also airs on TOF Studios as of June 13, 2009, and Knowledge Kids starting in 2013. The show also aired in the United States on Qubo from September 9, 2006, the channel's launch date, to the present day. Dragon and his friends Alligator, Ostrich, Beaver, and Mail Mouse are created by Phillip Marcus (the series' creative director and director in Canada) from Quack Quack Animation and Trickfilmland, where they make them animated moving and walking with the poses.
This show is sometimes listed as "My Friend Dragon" on Qubo, likely making My Friend Rabbit, one of Qubo's few original series, a spin-off of the series.
