Bert and Ernie's Great Adventures (originally promoted as The Adventures of Bert and Ernie) is a claymation animated children's television series and segment in which clay animated versions of Bert and Ernie use their imaginations to travel to strange places and into entertaining situations. The series is produced by Sesame Workshop, in co-production with Misseri Studio, Norddeutscher Rundfunk and Channel 5 Broadcasting Limited.

The shorts are shown in the United States as inserts on Sesame Street (first appearing in season 39). Internationally, the shorts are shown as a stand-alone series in various overseas markets (the first season debuting in September 2008). Two seasons of 26 five-minute episodes each had been produced. The "Secret Agents" episode has received the Gold Award for the Children's Animation category at the 2009 World Media Festival, as well as being a selection at the 2009 Annecy Animation Festival.

Format

[edit]

Each episode begins with Bert and Ernie climbing into their beds for a good night's sleep. Suddenly, the legs of Bert's bed starts shaking and tapping, and Ernie hops aboard as the bed flies out of their apartment and into their next great adventure. Each adventure has Bert and Ernie in a new location and a new situation. Sometimes they're accompanied by Bert's trusted pigeon-friend Bernice, or Ernie's toy Rubber Duckie. Often they encounter new and old friends, and also adversaries, along the way.
