The Blobs was an animated television series based on the books by DC Thomson, published in 1980.
It tells the story of a community of colourful paint-splash characters who live in Paintbox Land.
The 26-episode series, narrated originally by Jane Horrocks, was produced in 1996 by Siriol Animation in Wales, in association with DC Thomson & Co., Sianel Pedwar Cymru (S4C) and Scottish Television (now STV Central).
The series was purchased by TV Ontario in 1999, and was re-voiced by Julie Zwillich for the North American market.
Paintbox Land is ruled by a king, Royal Blue, and is bothered by a pesky witch, Inky Black.
