[2] The husband and wife team, Dan and Elaine Weisburd, were the creative geniuses behind The Most Important Person.
They created, directed, wrote the stories, composed the songs, recorded the voices for the series.
The main characters were an ostrich named Fumble, the fur-covered Hairy, the loquacious Bird and two children, Mike and Nicola.
Some pre-1994 syndicated prints of The Underdog Show have also included Most Important Person shorts.
A later spin-off, The Kingdom of Could Be You, featuring the children from The Most Important Person, was also produced by Sutherland Learning Associates.
