History
In 1977, Alan Shalleck approached Margret Rey, co-creator of Curious George, and proposed making a television series. This led to the creation of the 1980s television show funded by Lafferty, Harwood, and Partners. Shalleck and Rey produced more than 100 five-minute episodes, as well as more than two dozen books.[1] The shorts later aired on The Disney Channel as a segment of the program Lunch Box starting in 1989.
In 1993, Rey successfully sued Lafferty, Harwood, and Partners for licensing VHS tapes to third-party companies without her permission.
