Search Big & Small on Amazon.Big & Small is a American children's television series aimed at preschoolers following the lives of puppets, including the eponymous Big and Small.

Episode structure[edit]

The show starts off with the characters (voiced by Jeff Bridges and Andy Dick) doing many things, such as playing a game, or making something. There is then a conflict between the characters that leads to the plot of the episode. The characters then resolve their conflict before the end of the episode. There is always at least one song per episode, which was filmed in shadowmation.
