FETCH! with Ruff Ruffman is a unique children's television show that seamlessly blends elements from reality TV, game shows, and animations--all in one. It aired on PBS Kids from 2006 to 2010, bringing education in a highly entertaining and engaging format for kids. The show follows Ruff Ruffman, a cartoon dog created with Flash animation, who assigns real kids to complete fun and educational challenges around science and problem-solving.

Ruff Ruffman, the show's humorous and high-energy animated host, is not your average dog. In addition to having a signature style—an unmatched combination of spontaneity, panache, wit, and a penchant for peanut butter—he also runs his show from a modern, multi-purpose doghouse. Ruff's multifaceted personality makes him relatable to a broad audience.

Ruff interacts daily with real-life children contestants, known as FETCHers through a special device called the FETCH 3000. This group of six smart and relatively naive kids serve as participants in the show and reflect diverse backgrounds, promoting inclusion, and diversity. Each episode opens with Ruff facing a problem or a question he wants answered. He then sends his FETCHers out into the world to engage in a set of scientific investigations and challenges that could provide a solution or explanation, and thereby helps the audience understand different scientific concepts and topics.

With each episode featuring a unique mission, the FETCHers compete in an array of tasks for points awarded by Ruff, which include a combination of field challenges, quiz show-style questions, and games. Field challenges often require FETCHers to step beyond their comfort zone, sparking curiosity, promoting science literacy, and fostering a love for learning. The tasks often take FETCHers to various parts of the country, and sometimes even to international destinations to tackle problems and complete missions. They could find themselves anywhere from a baseball field studying physics to an archaeological dig investigating fossils.

The show is known for its educational bent; each episode includes scientific facts, exploration, problem-solving, and team-building activities that align with national science standards for children in the elementary and middle school range. The science involved is positioned in such a way that it is intriguing and exciting, encouraging kids to question, explore, and learn more about the world around them. It is, in essence, a science show in disguise as a game show.

Interactivity is a key component to the show. The program's multi-platform approach invites viewers at home to participate alongside the FETCHers via an interactive website. This web-based component extends the learning of the show by engaging children in educational games, activities, and challenges that complement and reinforce the scientific content of each television episode. The show also invites viewers to send in their science questions and ideas for future episodes, adding an extra layer of engagement for young viewers.
