Calliope (/kəˈlaɪ.əpi/ kə-LY-ə-pee) is a children's program that showed various live-action and animated short films.[4][5] These often included European features and shorts such as Cosgrove Hall's "Cinderella" and "The Pied Piper of Hamelin", and FilmFair's Paddington.
The series consisted of various short films, framed around an old man named Gene (voiced by Eugene Francis) and his dog Eliza viewing them. Twice an episode, pictures of kids from across the United States were shown in "Gene's Pix of the Week". Gene would also pose two questions to viewers; those who submitted their answers to an address would receive a Calliope balloon.
In its early years, Calliope obtained many of its short films from Learning Corporation of America and Phoenix Films.[3][6] Other shorts featured on Calliope included:
