Radical Sheep Productions
Radical Sheep Productions is a Canadian children's television series production company.
Among its early work, Radical Sheep made puppets used in the early 1990s educational video series The Adventures of Ruffus & Andy, which marked early appearances of Ruffus the Dog.
Its productions include Stella and Sam, which currently airs on Family Jr. and The Big Comfy Couch, a Gemini-award winning series for preschoolers, which produced seven seasons and aired for over ten years on Treehouse TV (Canada), PBS (US) and around the world.
Founded in 1985, by Robert Mills, the company also once housed the "Sheep Shop", which provided puppet construction and design services until 2002 when it closed its doors and Mills stepped aside from running the company.
As president, John Leitch now manages the business of Radical Sheep Productions. He acts as executive producer for all of Radical Sheep's productions and also oversees the management and sales of Radical's properties, both domestic and foreign. His credits as executive producer include: Stella and Sam (Seasons 1 & 2), The Big Comfy Couch (Seasons 6 & 7), Land O' Hands (Season 1), Amigo and Me (Season 1), Panda Bear Daycare (Seasons 1 & 2) and Ruffus the Dog (Seasons 1 & 2).
On March 31, 2016, Radical Sheep was acquired by Boat Rocker Media.[1]
