A Collective Fever Dream?: Sagwa, The Chinese Siamese Cat

Sagwa: The Chinese Siamese Cat was an animated children’s show that aired on PBS Kids from 2001-2002 with a total of forty episodes and 79 segments. To many who grew up with the show, it seems like a fever dream or a hallucination due to its short air time and unique concept. In this video I discuss the history of the series, its themes, and lastly, the merchandise and online flash player games hosted on the PBS Kids website. So without further ado, let’s dive into this PBS series inspired by Amy Tan’s 1994 book of the same name - Sagwa: The Chinese Siamese Cat.
