The Adventures of Tintin

Tintin is a reporter with no known family who, in reality, acts more like an adventurer or detective. He travels the world accompanied by his inseparable dog Snowy, with a clear goal: to stand up to the forces of evil, defend the weak and the oppressed, and satisfy his insatiable thirst for adventure. On every journey he is joined by the hot-tempered Captain Haddock, the detectives Thomson and Thompson, the absent-minded Professor Calculus and the world-famous singer Bianca Castafiore. Hergé created these characters in Belgian comics. The series, a Franco-Canadian production, reached France 3 in 1991 through Ellipse Programme and Nelvana.
