Production

ChalkZone was produced by Frederator Studios for the Nickelodeon cable channel. The series can be seen as homage to the1974 cartoon Simon in the Land of Chalk Drawings. But ChalkZone went posited a world where everything that had ever been drawn in chalk by anyone came to life in the alternative chalk universe, endowed with the soul and personality its creator had intended for it. Thus ChalkZone took such alternate universe stories as Through the Looking Glass and The Wizard of Oz one step further. Where Alice and Dorothy were merely confronted by creatures and situations they had no control over, ChalkZone's hero Rudy Tabootie had to confront the fact that there were consequences for what he brought into the world and how they interacted with the creations of others. The show was originally featured on Oh Yeah! Cartoons, just like The Fairly OddParents and My Life as a Teenage Robot. It premiered on March 22nd, 2002, as the highest rated new show premiere in Nickelodeon's history up to that time. A soundtrack album, titled In The Zone (not to be confused with Britney Spears' 2003 album), has also been released. The show aired on Nick on CBS on February 1, 2003 and ended on September 9, 2004.
