ערוץ הילדים הוגו (לקט חורף 95)
Hugo (הוגו) was an Israeli TV show on Arutz HaYeladim (The Children's Channel) that quickly became the channel's most popular programs. It run for 25/30 minutes from July 1994 to August 1997 in early afternoon live broadcast on Sundays and Thursdays, moderated by by Gil Sasover, Noa Yaron, and Tal Berman.
The character of Hugo was dubbed by Dori Ben Zeev and at certain times by Giora Kenneth. Gani Tamir dubbed Hogolina (Hugolina) and Griselda (Scylla). A popular segment of the program, filmed at Hayarkon Park, featured Gil Sasover and Noa Yaron-Dayan as Hugi and Hugit, Hugo's cousin and his wife, showing the daily life of the couple.
In 1996, the show's success inspired a three-hour spin-off, Hugo's World (עולמו של הוגו), in which children used a large step-on number pad to enter character movements. It was created by Gil Sassover, Efrat Reitan, and Tal Berman.
The same year, a stage musical was made inspired by the show, called Hugo's Magical Kingdom (הממלכה הקסומה של הוגו). The script was written by Ohad Ashkenazi. In 1998, two comic books were released.
