Quigley's Village
Debut: January 01, 1987
Ended: January 01, 1992

a collection of American-made Christian children's videos designed to teach children "sound Biblical values" in a fun and exciting way. A combination of live action and puppets, it was very similar in style to Sesame Street but with a biblically-based rather than humanistic approach to communicating values.Executive Producer Ed Carlstone first conceived of the idea of Quigley's Village when his three-year-old child told a lie.

He is a gentle man, with a smile on his face at all times. Dexter (Robert Auger) - The village's resident handy-man. He is one of the few humans to be featured on the program. Dexter is very helpful, but a little more naive than Mr. Quigley. He is also younger. Bubba (puppeteer Paul Lessard) - An orangutan and the main puppet character.
