Synopsis

Fetch! with Ruff Ruffman, sometimes shortened as Fetch!, is a children's television series for children ages 6–12 on PBS during the PBS Kids Go! block of educational programming. It is a game show/reality show that is hosted by an animated anthropomorphic dog named Ruff Ruffman who dispenses challenges to the show's real-life contestants. The series ran for five seasons and 100 episodes from May 29, 2006 to November 4, 2010 on PBS, with 30 contestants in that time. In June 2010, WGBH announced that the series would end due to lack of funding. In June 2008, the series received its first Emmy for Best Original Song for its theme.

invisibleunicornninja I think that I was actually obsessed with this show when I was younger. I watched every episode, watched the show whenever I could, and made charts analyzing it. This show is hilarious and creative and interesting. I wouldn't say that the fourth wall is broken, but its definitely ignored. This show is fast paced with something new every episode, and the child actors are actually good.The concept is executed so well in such an entertaining manner that I can't believe its not more popular. This is awesome. This show is so entertaining and so well done I can't help but recommend it to pretty much everyone (in the target audience - some of this show would probably bore older teens or adults).
lucas_gross I loved this show as a kid. It's a genuine shame it was discontinued. I still look back to the seasons that I don't remember and still love the show. One of the best parts is that the contestants are actually really contestants. Usually, shows like this tend to have actors and the whole game show is fake. Fetch was different. They did send videos in to join Fetch, and when they did come, they were encouraged to improvise. Again, this show was amazing. I loved this show, and I still do.
YungRapunxel212 This is the greatest PBS show there ever will be. I will refer to this series as Fetch. Fetch is a spectacular game show that interacts with kids. My favorite animated character was Blossom the cat. I loved Ruff Ruffman,too. I love how it makes the kids go use clues to find things. And if some kids did not get picked they could have gotten bonus points. I remember coming home from school and turning this show on. It is very suitable for children, it is on the PBS network, but nothing violent, sexual, or no language. Like I said before, this is the best PBS show ever.7-
emiliehope I heard this show was aimed toward the younger kids, but I feel it's for anyone, any age. I'm 13, and I still watch PBS! When I first saw the commercials for these, I thought it was for younger kids. Then, the first episode came on. I recognized Taylor, from ZOOM. I thought it was so neat that they got to go on challenges, and go to different places! I actually learn things from watching this show, and Ruff Ruffman is just so funny! After watching the very first episode, I told all my friend and sister about "Fetch!" Now we all watch it, and we're addicted! Again, this is a show for all ages, and you learn stuff almost every day. It's a new era for PBS. Way to go!
