Barbapapa is the Canadian English dub of the 1974 TV series of the same name, and is one of five English dubs overall. It aired on TVOntario in Canada from September 17, 1977 to September 10, 1985, and also aired on Knowledge Kids from 1985 to 1987.

In 1981, episodes of this dub were released on Betamax VHS tapes in the United Kingdom. The Pre-Cert website calls it the "Americanised version" to differentiate it from the UK dub. These DVDs skipped the "Beach" episode for some unclear reason.

It is perhaps the most well known English Barbapapa dub, as it's the only one to use the popular "Clickety click, Barbatrick!" transformation phrase. Despite this, none of the cast and crew behind this dub is known yet.

Notes[edit]

  • This dub uses the same songs from the British English dub, including the theme song.
  • The first 2001 Japanese DVD of the series has part of this dub on it, at the start of the second episode ("Le feu") where Barbapapa helps to get the leopard back to the zoo. This proves that this dub was most likely used as a base for the Aniplex dub, despite not having the same script.
