The show doesn't use english words, but it's own creative language called "Penguiniese" (OR, "Pengish"). History The show originally began in Switzerland from the company Trickfilmstudio back in 1986. But over the years, it had spread to America and other countries of the world such as Japan where the show is famous amongst young teen girls (ages 13-17). & also in England where Pingu has become a household name. Afew years ago, Hit Entertainment had bought the distribution rights to Pingu by releasing DVD's of the short cartoons. also, Hit had changed the music and some of the voices when they got the right's to the show so there were 2 versions, the original Tricksfilmstudio version, & the HIT entertainment version. The show had been doing extremely well that Hit Etertainment.com had decided to make 52 all new shorts of Pingu in Sep. of 2004 (Though, those episodes have yet to get in america as they only aired in the UK). But before that, They had released an all new DVD called "A Very Special Wedding" which included the introduction of Green Penguin's & was 20 min in length compared to a normal Pingu short of 3 to 5 min.
