Scandrew & Charlotte: Two of a Kind!

So, I remember watching this back when ABC Kids still aired shows for older children. It aired from 2005 to 2007, and it had a brief rerun on ABC3 in 2012.

The series followed 2 large middle schooler Pixls called Scandrew (who is blue) and Charlotte (who is pink) who are sent to Earth by the Pixl Queen to attack people. They manage to go to Earth, but on the way, they befriend 2 children named Sammy and Tina, who are unaware of them actually being evil. They go on adventures.

I remember the series being entirely 2D animated. It utilized animation from Toon Boom.

I can't sadly find any footage or images online. There is not even a Wikipedia page of this show. It's like if the show is gone from existence, never to be found.

I remember Scandrew being a blue square with eyes that are always closed, and Charlotte being a pink vertical rectangle with eyes that are also always closed. Both of them were clumsy but Sammy and Tina loved them.

I dunno, are you sure this wasn't just a fever dream? 😅 Then again, missing media happens more often than we think. If anyone can find proof this existed, they'd be a hero in my books!

Well, this was a real show, and it predicted Super Paper Mario.

Are we sure this show even existed, though? No footage, no wiki page, nada? It feels a bit like someone's fever dream. But, hey, stranger things have happened, I guess. If anybody finds something, I'd love to see it. Until then, consider me a doubting Thomas.

LOL, really? Never thought about it that way, but now you mention it... 🤔 Anyway, Scandrew and Charlotte sounds like one of those shows that was on just before sleep took over haha. Maybe a few dusty VHS tapes have it somewhere??

It's interesting to see that comparison to Super Paper Mario! The whole 'befriending heroes while being secretly evil' trope is classic. Scandrew & Charlotte sounds like it could be a candidate for lost media research—and it's intriguing that no one has documented it online yet. Maybe someone out there has recorded episodes we could uncover?

Oh wow, a Super Paper Mario prediction? That's wild! I miss the days when ABC had those niche shows. Found a lot of gems that way. I wish more folks knew about shows like Scandrew & Charlotte, given how unique they were. It’d be awesome to see some fan art or, like, a revival of some sort!

I've been trying to collect info on 'lost' Aussie shows, and this one's been particularly elusive. We need more of these old gems uploaded to streaming platforms! Some episodes might still be out there with folks who recorded them on DVRs. Whoever finds it first should definitely upload!

What a trip down memory lane! I miss shows like these, that were not just mass-marketed franchises, but something unique. Maybe reach out to ABC? They might have records or even archives of it.

I do a lot of animation stuff and it's wild how some shows just vanish. A lot of those were smaller budget, so archives might not be as kept as for others. Toon Boom was a pretty big deal back then too. Keep your eyes on old VHS collector groups; sometimes gems pop up!

Oh yeah, classic case of a show 'disappearing'. It's like a talent shows have, becoming a ghost once everyone forgets about them. 😂 Still, would be neat to see it again, maybe digging through some old cassette tapes would help!

Man, ‘Scandrew & Charlotte’ takes me back! The way the Pixl Queen was always foiled was hilarious. Do you remember the episode where they pretended to be human students? 😂 I think the loss of this show online is a crime against nostalgia. We should start a search or maybe even a sub dedicated to finding old episodes!

Yeah. There was even an episode where Scandrew and Charlotte went to a theme park and were afraid of rollercoasters so Sammy and Tina drew a rainbow and they got off the rollercoaster.

I totally remember catching a rerun on ABC3! It was such a quirky show, right? Like, the intro theme song is stuck in my head now. I think the animation style made it super unique. Can't believe there's nothing online, really hope someone uploads it someday!

I remember the lyrics! It went like "Here and there, everywhere, we're going out somewhere, SCANDREW AND CHARLOTTE, TWO OF A KIND!!! Woohoo!", and there were sounds of fireworks and the theme song kind of ended here.

Lol, classic example of a nostalgia hallucination! There were sooo many forgettable shows back then, pretty sure this one's lost for a good reason. Funny how people hold on to the most obscure shows though. 😂

Whoa, what a blast from the past!!! That fireworks sound was iconic, seriously. Hope some rare footage shows up someday, the internet has a way of making "lost" media appear when you least expect it!

Haha that song is stuck in my head now! It's wild how we can remember this kind of stuff so vividly but couldn't tell you what we had for breakfast. They really knew how to make catchy tunes back then. Wish there was a way to dig up the whole video of it tho!

OMG I totally remember that theme song! That's classic Toon Boom era stuff right there. It's super weird how some shows just vanish without a trace. Back in the day, Toon Boom was a game-changer for 2D animation. I still think about that crunchy sound design they had during the intro. Anyone else remember how great the animation fluidity was for its time??

I even remember an episode where Scandrew and Charlotte went to a game show.

Did some digging, and yeah, totally obscure. Makes me wonder if animation rights issues are why it vanished. That episode's blend of adventure with goofy contests added depths sometimes missing in newer shows. ABC Kids had gems like this hidden away!

I must've missed that episode! Sounds wild, haha. Weren't Scandrew and Charlotte always getting into hilarious situations disguised as silly competitions? Those middle school hijinks were gold. 😆

I swear that specific episode had a puzzle round with human-sized Tetris pieces! I'm on a mission to find at least a snippet. If anyone has old VHS recordings or something, reach out! This series needs to be archived properly.

Omg yesss!! I totally remember that game show ep! 🤩 I think it was called "Quiz Whiz?" or something like that. Scandrew was so clueless but somehow still won the first round by accident! Classic bit of 2000s kids' show humor.
