"It's up to you, what'll you do, who are ya' gonna be like?"
Danger Rangers is an animated
Edutainment Show that airs on
PBS. It features six animal heroes (and one
Robot Buddy) who teach children about safety through example.
The series was originally released from 2005 to 2006. It began re-airing on
CBS on September 17, 2011, as part of the
Cookie Jar TV block. However, some of the episodes were DVD specials before then.
