Did they not play Caillou in America? I always hated the show as a kid, but watched it sometimes because there wasn't anything else on.

 

[Elvis Starburst]

God that show was awful, and is a bad example for kids at that. It deserved to die, why would it ever come back?

Do they ever explain why he's bald?

Because the original books of Caillou, he was drawn as a nine-month-old baby. When Caillou got older the publishers decided to keep him bald, because give him hair would make him unrecognizable.

Ok, but why is Charlie Brown bald?

Ok, but why is Charlie Brown bald?

Charlie Brown is drawn with only a small curl of hair at the front of his head, and a little in the back. Though this is often interpreted as him being bald, Charles M. Schulz claimed that he saw Charlie Brown as having hair that was so light, and cut so short, that it could not be seen very easily

But good ol' Charlie Brown has been misunderstood for decades. Because the strip's iconic "round-headed kid" is always drawn with a curly scribble of hair on his forehead, a little tuft in the back, and nothing in between, most readers assume that he's bald.

But Charlie Brown's creator is on the record as to his alter ego's coiffure, and the answer may surprise you. "I don't think of it as not having hair," Charles Schulz told NPR's Terry Gross in 1990. "I think of it as being hair that is so blond that it's not seen very clearly, that's all." In other words, Charlie Brown has light-colored hair cropped close to his head, like the children's crew-cuts that were so popular in the era of his creation.
