Charlie and Lola, that adorable brother and sister from England appear daily on Playhouse Disney in the morning.
Charlie and Lola do come from London, where the stories originated as books, written by Lauren Child. There are 26 different Charlie and Lola stories that have been made into short stories for the Disney Channel. Tiger Aspect Publications Ltd produces the Charlie and Lola show for the Disney Channel.
Charlie, aged 7, has this little sister Lola, and together they go through a new experience each day. Lola, a small handful of a child is often in need of Charlie's help. Charlie has quite the imagination, as does Lola, and he and will imagine a way to help Lola in her frequent times of need.
You will see Charlie help Lola realize that getting her hair cut is not a bad thing, even though one of her excuses is her imaginary story. In her story, she is a Princess in a tower, and when her Prince shows up and is unable to climb up because her hair was cut, Lola is distraught. Charlie finally figures out that it isn't the haircut that is bothering his sister, but instead it is the brushing that must be done first.
The stories are definitely entertaining, and great for parents to watch to see how Charlie deals with his young sister. You will never see another adult during Charlie and Lola, but occasionally another child will join them. Lola may be a feisty little girl, but she is fun to watch. Charlie is an immensely patient 7 year old who always makes Lola feel better.
In addition to the fun characters, the theme song itself is also quite entertaining, and is a very catchy tune.
This show is approximately 11 minutes, and is usually shown before Stanley, cutting Stanley to just 15 minutes.

not on everyday on Playhouse Disney anymore. It's only on Saturdays now, which is what they do before they pull the plug. It's all in reruns. :( My son LOVES this show. Yes the voices can be annoying but it doesn't bother him. It could be just good for US kids to hear other accents. What's the big deal if it's "British", it's still in english!

I love charlie and lola and so do my children. Lola makes me laugh and charlie is creative in the way he gets his sister to do the things she needs to do. This is a good show. To those of you that say you don't like it ... I say then don't watch it and don't spread your hate around. There is nothing wrong with there voices. It is a British show and that is why they talk the way they do. It is really cute! We love Charlie and Lola.

I'm a huge fan, and I'm British. my daughter is 3 years old but she is not I REPEAT SHE IS NOT the reason I have downloaded 3/4gb of Charlie and Lola from itunes and put them on my ipod.
ok, so it keeps her quiet on the bus, but I have a habit of watching them when I need a giggle or a little pick-me-up.

I'm a 14 year old girl, and I adore Charlie and Lola :D
My little cousins watch it (they're 3 and 5) and their parents, my parents, my sister and my aunt all love the show
Me and my aunt and my grandma are all totally in love with Charlie in particular; everytime it comes on we all sigh - "I wish I had a brother like Charlie"
We think he's gonna be quite the looker when he's older ;3
Anyway, basically a brilliant show, it's sweet and funny, you can't help but like it

My 4 year old will say some of the FUNNIEST stuff and I'm like "where did she get THAT?" - Then I'll hear an episode of Charlie and Lola....
This is my favorite children's show ever. I dont even mind sitting down and watching it with my daughter. Like others that have posted, I cant wait for the US to get some merchandise.
My only complaint? Disney has moved the show to a 5 am time slot. If it werent for TiVo, we'd miss it!

I came across this by accident and watched while my son napped. I bought the US dvd's not expecting my 2 year old son and 4 year old nephew to like them. I was surprised that they loved the show. We watch it together and since it only airs for an episode a day, it really limits the amount of TV they watch so it's PERFECT!!! I was on eBay and apparently there will be talking, giggling dolls released in February!!! yay!!! The perfect gift for the kiddos; can't wait!!!
