Yes, that was it! Thanks.
I know there are a lot of animated adaptations of fairy tales out there, but here's what I remember:
I watched this sometime around 1990-1991.
It was not on Nickelodeon and not the anime Grimm's Fairy Tale Classics that aired on Nick Jr. (I watched that one too and have more clear memories of it).
It was possibly on The Family Channel.
I had a lunchbox with some of the characters on it. I recall Rapunzel being a blonde girl wearing a pink dress, the Ugly Duckling was gray, and the Emperor from The Emperor's New Clothes was a lion wearing a crown with purple boxers with white polka dots.
Each episide was self-contained as one story.
I think the reason I can't remember the title is because it was something really generic. Does this sound familiar to anyone?
