Alaina Gleen (TV series)

is an American animated television series originally created by Thalia Ward for CBS. The first television series produced by Thalia Ward Productions for Fox Television Animation, it centers on a kind and smart teenage girl named Alaina Gleen and her imaginary friend Max Hat, living in the town of Applewood, Colorado. They try to live in a normal everyday life to occasionally prevent attacks from a professor named Mr. Wiggins and his henchmen, so Alaina & Max, along with their other friends, must team up to stop Wiggins' plans

Thalia Ward created the title character for an unpublished comic book series in 1986, and later reluctantly pitched the series to CBS as a Saturday morning cartoon in 1988. The network gave the staff a large amount of creative freedom, with the writers targeting both children and adults.

The series originally premiered on CBS on November 17, 1990, and was later moved to Fox Kids channel on March 2, 1996, then to Cartoon Network during their Cartoon Cartoon Fridays block, on October 8, 1999. It has been commercially successful, establishing the title character as the mascot of Thalia Ward Productions; it has spawned a successful franchise and adaptations into other media, such as comics and video games. The series ended on November 5, 2004 with a total of 10 seasons and 170 episodes, tying Alaina Gleen as the ninth longest-running American animated television series. As a result of the show's popularity, a feature-length film, titled The Alaina Gleen Movie, was released into theaters on December 17, 2004, a month after the series finale.

On October 8, 2010, Fox Animation Studios released a computer-animated reboot film under the same name as a new incarnation of the original series; it was followed by two sequels, Alaina Gleen 2 in 2013 and Alaina Gleen: Summer Vacation in 2017 respectively. An animated series based on the reboot films, titled Alaina Gleen's Adventures, premiered on Netflix on September 18, 2015 and ended on August 4, 2017; it received mixed reviews from critics and came as a disappointment to most fans who were saddened that the show did not return to its original formula. Eventually in September 2018, 20th Century Fox announced that Disney Channel had picked up the original series for 26 new episodes that will begin airing on February 8, 2019.
