Handy Manny
Handy Manny, voiced by Wilmer Valderrama (Fez!), is a bilingual repairman from the friendly town of Sheetrock Hills. When somebody needs help, they call for Handy Manny and his trusty set of tools. He can fix nearly anything and in the process manages to teach viewers about problem solving and how to get along with others.
Manny’s tools are always anxious to help him out, but their unique personalities sometimes cause conflicts. When that happens, Manny has to use his problem solving skills to settle the conflict and help everyone get along.
Kelly (voiced by Nancy Truman) is a friend of Manny’s. She runs the hardware store where Manny often goes to pick up supplies. She is generally very helpful and helps Manny find just what he needs.
Mr. Lopart (voiced by Tom Kenny), who Manny frequently runs into, owns the candy store next to Manny’s workshop. He has a bit of a know-it-all attitude and often refuses Manny’s help. This tends to get him in trouble more often than not.
Handy Manny is an entertaining show that teaches preschool age kids in a fun way. While it doesn’t shove ABC’s and 123’s at them, it does teach them some great interpersonal relationship skills. Handy Manny can be seen on Playhouse Disney at 9:00 a.m. ET/PT.
