I turned on the TV and found this cute 3D animated program, Jane & the Dragon. A little research says it is produced by Weta Workshop, one of the SFX shops that worked with Peter Jackson. The 3D animation is pretty good, but the backgrounds lack depth and I wonder if that is intentional since the character work is very good. I'm not familiar with the children's book it's based on, so I don't know if that is part of it.

I found it on NBC, Saturday, 1pm EST. It's supposed to be part of a rotating set of children's shows and I don't know what kind of frequency they use or what kind of availability there is in other countries.

I have seen it a few times, the hair they use in it is the best that I have seen.

I catch on Saturdays, about 12:30 CST on NBC as part of the Qubo network stuff.  It's pretty well done.  The characters do have a certain style, and the bg's are supposed to look like medieval illustrations, I think. The hair IS top-notch, I'll give 'em that.

My son loves the show, so I see it most weekends.  I'm impressed with the hair too. The movements are pretty good too. Te textures and background aren't the greatest, but it's still watchable.

I've seen quite a bit of it.  I think the BG's are down that way to look more like illustrations in a children's  book.  The close up detail of the faces and of Dragon is phenomenal.  Well worth a look!

I dont have a TV so I had to "you tube" for it.

Great animations I think, indeed impressive hair.
At least as far as I could see it, "you tube" quality is not the greatest.

And that dragon packs some great humor 😄

He is already a good reason to watch it.

I am not a complete idiot, some parts are missing :)
