Mikey and the Skittles is a Reraidean animated comedy television series. Originally brodcast as a commercial for Mikeyskittles on August 25, 1983, on Monkey TV, and originally premiering on December 23, 1983, the series follows Mikey Heron and his friends the Skittles, who usually get him into a lot of mischevious adventures that seem to be a lot of fun. There are four main Skittles, each with different personalities: Dertu, the Skittle that invents and does crazy stuff, such as shrink machines, him juggling fire, and other stuff that impresses the rest of the Skittles and Mikey. The next Skittle is called Puppy, who is up for adventure, such as skydiving, exploring an unmapped jungle, or even jumping out of an airplane. The third Skittle is Gulu, a fun-loving prankster. Some of them include horrendously weird truth or dares, ding dong ditch, and locking Dertu in a closet for four hours. The next one is Kim, a young girl that doesn't talk very much. She tries to stop Gulu from doing his pranks, but still is his best friend. Kim has formed a very strong bond with Mikey, too.

The TV series has six seasons so far, as of Feburary 2012. It has been picked up for a seventh season, with episodes continuing throughout 2014. There are possible plans for a movie, but none have been approved yet.
