I always loved when Puzzle place came on as a kid. I was looking for this show on dvd not long ago. I did ended up finding it but there were some episodes missing in it.
When I first saw this show at a very young age, it stuck with me so hard even after several years of never bothering to look it up. It might have been the whole basis of my childhood dreaming and fantasy life, it was just that good.
When I first came back to it, I realized the underlying messages behind each episode, and wondered why I didn't grow up with it more often than I did. Every kid, from a very young age and up, needs to be learning about other people's backgrounds and personal differences, which is something that was underlined in every episode of this show.
It truly breaks my heart to know that this show wasn't successful enough to grow to be more popular today, and I do sincerely wish that it would be brought back in at least some way, shape, or form for children these days to at least be more exposed to.

My daughter, who is almost 13, and I were discussing shows that she watched and enjoyed as a toddler today. Puzzle Place was at the top of our favorite list. We both remember fondly watching the series on PBS. We loved it! Each show was a lesson in multi-cultural education and friendship. The series was full of songs, games and crafts from around the world. The format was fun, but not "corny". We had a "Puzzle Place" play-set and a stuffed Sizzle and Nuzzle, providing hours of fun for my daughter and I. Anyone from PBS or other children's programming network, please bring this series back for all to enjoy and to learn the all important children's lessons of sharing and caring for each other.
The Puzzle Place is probably by far one of my favorite shows on my local PBS Station growing up in the '90s and it features Puppetry and Live Action. This show was like the '90s Generation of Fraggle Rock and a kid version of Friends (in which that greatest sitcom of all time aired on NBC), and throughout every episode the Kids from the Puzzle Place learn valuable life lessons like Sharing, Dealing with Bullies and Racism, Learn about there Culture and Accent and Friendship as well as learning from everyone's mistakes and Problems, even though this show was taken off the air back in 2000 and considered it Lost Media, plus I would like to see this show on DVD and maybe our kids from this Generation would like to expereince it now that we've watch plenty of Shows with Puppetry such as Sesame Street, the Muppet Show, Fraggle Rock, Eureeka's Castle, Allerga's Window, Kino's Storytime, Wimzie's House and many others; and of course this Show still has gain a cult following on Youtube over the years and still is too this very day.
... If you don't believe me, just ask the concerned public. Why was this show cancelled? It was pure genius ... whoever created such a masterpiece should be knighted -- no! Sainted! "The Puzzle Place" could have been used in elementary schools to explain good morals and manners to children just verging on the kindergarten age.
Every episode contained an incessant reel of socialized brainwash ... made lacy and inviting with promises of singing and dancing puppets and their strangely human relatives. ... And I always had a crush on Skye.
