Bingo is ignoring his friends. He has become, in Duck?s words, ?a computer zombie?. While Bingo stays hidden away in his room playing computer games, he?s missing all the excitement as a birds nest with an egg falls from a nearby tree. Gladys is persuaded to sit on the egg. Duck and Zigger build a birdhouse. Molly puts on her doctor?s uniform to supervise the birth of the baby bird.

Bingo & Molly was originally produced for The Learning Channel, a division of Discovery Networks and was designed to meet their high standards of excellence in children?s programming. Bingo & Molly aired on Discovery Kids and The Learning Channel in around 100 million homes across North and South America.
The shows combine music, puppets and fun-filled animation to help pre-schoolers learn the social skills necessary to relate to family members and other children their own age. An ensemble cast of comical and endearing characters, comprising Bingo & Molly brother and sister rabbits, Gladys the Emu, is the nosy neighbour, Duck is a duck who thinks he?s a rabbit, Zigger the mole, Rosa the Bear from South America, and of course Mr. Growl, the vegetarian Wolf, who is the mentor and confidant of the whole team.
