About Colonel Bleep

Colonel Bleep ended on October 23, 1958. The show originally aired in syndication and was part of Uncle Bill's TV Club, with its final episode broadcast on that date.

Colonel Bleep was a pioneering animated series from 1957 that was notable for being the first color cartoon made for television. It was a science-fiction adventure aimed at children, featuring the characters Colonel Bleep, Squeak, and Scratch as they solved mysteries and fought crime from their base on Zero Zero Island.

The series consisted of 104 episodes, each lasting between three and six minutes, with slightly fewer than half of these episodes known to survive today. The show’s brief run and innovative use of color animation made it a unique part of early television history.
