New Characters from PBS KIDS

August 14, 2025

This summer, PBS KIDS has released the newest generation of characters! PBS rolled out these unique and dynamic graphics earlier this year for use by stations like WFSU. You may have seen them on our website, in social media posts, or at our events. 

The mission behind these characters is to represent all kinds of PBS KIDS fans. There are over 40 distinct characters in the collection, each with its own unique personality, interests, and abilities. 

These newcomers replace the infamous green characters of Dash, Dot, Del, and Dee, who were the previous faces of PBS KIDS. However, the new generation pays homage to our green friends with their names. All characters have a name starting with “D,” like Daria, Dakota, Dinfin or Dashay. 

Keep an eye out for more of these characters in station communication to come. You may even find one that looks like you!
