Land O'Hands is a Preschool-aged Puppet Show by Radical Sheep Productions.

The show was set in the titular Land of Hands, a pre-historic world stated to be Alberta, Canada, only with a lot of human body features in landscapes... and wildlife. The star of the show was Bungle, a young cave boy who would often go off on adventures in the wild with his friend Garby. Bungle's natural curiosity would often land them in trouble that the two would need to get out of.

The show aired on Treehouse TV on January 29th, 2001.


Land O'Hands contains examples of:

  • Bare-Handed Puppetry: To go with the whole Land of Hands theme, the wildlife on the show would be made by covering someone's hand(s) in makeup and prosthetics that would incorporate the fingers in some manner, such as a bird's wings, or a forearmosaurus' mouth.
  • Birthday Episode: "Birthday Memories", which is set on Bungle's birthday.
  • Black Bead Eyes: The characters on the show had black dot eyes used for the puppets.
  • Clip Show: The episode "Birthday Memories", which is set on Bungle's Birthday.
  • Hollywood Prehistory: The Land of Hands is a prehistoric world where cavepeople live alongside dinosaurs and ice age animals.
  • Lotus Position: Grandma was seen sitting in this position on the cliff at the end of "Old Land Signs".
  • The Place: The show is set in the Land of Hands... though the show is called Land O'Hands.
  • Rhyming Title: Land O'Hands.
