LazyTown

LazyTown (Latibær in Icelandic) is an Icelandic children's television series created by the Icelandic athlete Magnús Scheving (who also stars as Sportacus) and produced by LazyTown Entertainment. It is based upon a children's book from 1991 titled Áfram Latibær! (Let's Go Lazytown!)

Background
While the series itself was a pre-lay production for the most part; various bits of dialogue had been redubbed. Noel MacNeal originally did the voice of Pixel for various episodes of Season 1, but his dialogue was later redubbed with Nick Jr. announcer Kobie Powell. However, Noel can still be heard as Pixel's voice in some releases; one example is the iTunes release of "Defeeted".

In addition, there is a UK dub, as with many other kids' shows. Sarah Burgess and Julie Westwood, who worked in the original US/Icelandic production, both provide the UK voice for Stingy, Burgess during the first two seasons and Westwood during the final two seasons.

To add to that, the unaired test pilot (with Shelby Young as Stephanie) had Sportacus dubbed over by a different actor as Magnus Scheving's Icelandic accent was possibly considered hard to understand. The puppets were also dubbed over by different actors. The names of the actors who dubbed over Sportacus and the puppets are unknown. They are presumed to be either Icelandic actors doing American accents or New York-based voice actors (as Nick Jr. produces much of its content in the New York City area). The actor dubbing over Sportacus sounds similar to Richard Ian Cox, but Cox was Vancouver-based and is possibly out of the question.

Trivia

 * Mayor Meanswell and Bessie Busybody are the only puppet characters who aren't re-dubbed in the show's UK broadcast.
