Amber Dowling Amazon’s Prime Video is bringing the story of Canada’s most famous children’s entertainer to the world. The streamer has confirmed the start of production on an untitled “Mr. Dressup” documentary, based on the life and career of Ernie Coombs. The doc will celebrate the origins and history of the children’s show and its legacy of valuable lessons. In addition to including insights into the relationship with Rogers, the project uses unseen archival footage, interviews with series puppeteers and musicians, the Coombs family, and other notable Canadians who discuss the impact the series had on them. Rob McCallum (“Power of Grayskull: The Definitive History of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe”) directs and co-writes with Jordan Morris (“Nintendo Quest”).
American-born Coombs came to Canada in the early 1960s as one of Fred “Mister” Rogers’ puppeteers for the 1961-64 CBC children’s program “Misterogers.” Coombs then immigrated to Canada and hosted his own children’s programs, “Butternut Square” and the Gemini-winning “Mr. Dressup.” “Mr. Dressup” ran from 1967 to 1996, a 29-year-run that included 4,000 episodes, a famous tickle trunk, and a treehouse that lodged the memorable puppets Casey and Finnegan (played by Judith Lawrence). The series ended when Coombs announced his retirement. Shortly after he was invested into the Order of Canada. Coombs died following a stroke in 2001 at the age of 73. Marblemedia is producing the feature-length project in association with original “Mr. Dressup” broadcaster CBC, Hawkeye Pictures and Pyre Productions for a 2023 release exclusively on Prime Video. A broadcast window on CBC in Canada will follow. “Mr. Dressup” was, and continues to be, a fun, creative, kind and safe

Amber Dowling Amazon Studios wants to beef up its content library in Canada. And the quickest way to do that, according to Brent Haynes, the studio’s head of originals in Canada, is with half-hour formats. “With the exception of ‘Three Pines,’ we are doing half-hours and that’s because they help quickly build our library. But, that is also one of the gaps in our programming,” Haynes said recently during a Content Canada session in Toronto. “A lot of our other territories are doing one-hours and crime dramas, so we don’t need to repeat that,” he continued. “We are aware of what’s coming out around the world and we try to each make something that would help our other territories.”
