Fun Freetime: Hello, Jack! The Kindness Show

“Hello, Jack! The Kindness Show,” will premiere Friday, November 5 on Apple TV+. The new, breakthrough live action series from creators Jack McBrayer (“30 Rock,” “Phineas and Ferb,” “Wreck-It Ralph” franchise) and children’s TV veteran and author, Angela C. Santomero (“Blue’s Clues,” “Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood”), aims to ignite kindness by exploring empathy, humor, playfulness and imagination.



Anchored around Emmy Award-nominee Jack McBrayer’s infectious positivity and whimsical humor, “Hello, Jack! The Kindness Show” invites preschoolers into a world where a little act of kindness can change the world.
