Carl the Collector

About

Characters from the PBS KIDS animarted series, Carl the Collectior

Carl the Collector, PBS KIDS’ First Series with a Main Character on the Autism Spectrum

Carl the Collector follows the everyday adventures of Carl, an adorable, warm-hearted raccoon on the autism spectrum who enjoys collecting things and loves his friends and family in Fuzzytown. Carl pays extraordinarily close attention to detail and comes up with ideas others might not consider. These traits help him amass his extensive collections—including autographs, bottle caps, fake mustaches, pet rocks, sweaters and everything in between—which come in handy for solving problems in the neighborhood with his friends. In each episode, Carl and his friends work and play together and, in the process, find out what makes each of them who they are.

Carl the Collector showcases and celebrates our differences and commonalities, and that we all have something unique to offer.
