Talk:Minuscule (TV series)

Broadcasting
Work in progress on the editing of this, but not sure whether or not it actually counts as a TV series. Certainly the original article seemed to relate to the episodes being played on the Disney Channel. But as it's an internet based, French made animation probably should lose the "(TV series)" extension? And for the record, does anybody know of any other television stations around the world that this might appear on?Ozlucien (talk) 03:07, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
 * It's a regular feature on the Swedish children's channel Barnkanalen. --85.227.239.112 (talk) 12:03, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
 * It's regularly aired on ABC1 in Australia, as either a scheduled program or a fill-in.Mathsgirl (talk) 04:29, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Misspelled Title
Redirection help! I've just realised that the article itself is misspelled (the series is called "Minuscule", not "Miniscule". So the whole article needs to be relocated to the minuscule disambaguity section. I'll play around and try and work out how to do that (still new), but if somebody else can assist please feel free Ozlucien (talk) 03:57, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Iwonder if they even have permission to do so. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.221.122.158 (talk) 01:23, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

anthropomorphic insects?
Hello.

I just discovered this great series. When I was to see what says in Wikipedia about that, I read "anthropomorphic insects" I think this is not correct, because each insect has his own form, I think. In any way, only agree with the eyes of some characters.

Anthropomorphic insects are in animation films like "Antz" or "Bugs", but not in "Minuscule".

Owever, I can be wrong.

Sorry for my bad English spelling, I'm from Spain, but I hope you understand me. Thanks. Donguijote (talk) 01:19, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

You are right. Anthropomorphic means an animal with human-like characteristics, though the bugs do have minds of their own in the show, like the lady bug teasing the flies. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.233.100.129 (talk) 15:27, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

That seems to have been fixed. It now says  The various protagonist insects often perform anthropomorphic activities... (my wikilink added), which IMO is awkward but not at all misleading.

Strictly speaking either our article on anthropomorphism is wrong or this article was always technically accurate in respect to describing the insects as anthropomorphic... our article reads Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human traits, emotions, and intentions to non-human entities. Source is given as the OED.

So it's a far more general term than just describing the physical form or characteristics. The ants in Antz are anthropomorphic, but so are the ones in Minuscule, just in different traits, emotions and intentions. Perhaps the above is a good example of purism?
