About Doc McStuffins
Showcasing the hallmarks of great Disney storytelling – fantasy and wish fulfillment – Disney Junior’s Peabody Award-winning animated series “Doc McStuffins” tells the story of a nurturing six-year-old girl who can talk to the stuffed animals and toys that she cares for in her playhouse clinic. When Doc puts on her stethoscope, something magical happens; toys, dolls and stuffed animals come to life, and she can communicate with all of them, including the toys belonging to her friends and other neighborhood kids.
Created and executive-produced by Humanitas Prize and Emmy Award-winning Chris Nee (writer on “Little Bill” and producer of “Deadliest Catch: Crab Fishing in Alaska”) and directed by Emmy-winning Norton Virgien (“Rugrats”), “Doc McStuffins” is a production of Dublin, Ireland’s Brown Bag Films in association with Disney Channel. The Hollywood Health & Society division of the USC Annenberg Norman Lear Center serves as its health and medical consultants, advising on basic health issues that are relevant to young kids and families.
Assisting Doc at the clinic are her much-loved stuffed animal friends: Stuffy, an exceedingly proud dragon; Lambie, her cuddly best friend; Hallie, a jolly and caring hippo nurse; Squeakers, an alarmist squeaky fish toy; and Chilly, a snowman who spends a lot of time getting check-ups at the clinic. Whether it’s a case of loose stitching, low batteries or a blow-up toy that has sprung a leak, Doc and her pals are there to lend a helping hand while imparting to young viewers the importance of taking care of oneself and others.
“Doc McStuffins” exemplifies Disney’s brand values of celebrating one’s family and appreciating diversity and difference. Doc’s mom is a doctor who can be counted on to help Doc with her “diagnoses,” and her dad is a chef who whips up healthy treats for Doc and her four-year-old little brother, Donny. Like a lot of younger siblings, Donny looks up to his sister and, although he is not aware of Doc’s ability to talk to her toys, he knows she’s the best healer for stuffed animals and toys around. Each episode features two 11-minute stories in which Doc and her friends diagnose the situation and nurture the toy in need.
The characters and featured themes are relatable to young viewers and are designed to ease kids’ trepidations about everything from a doctor’s visit to removing a splinter. Many of the stories directly address the kinds of issues that parents face with their young children when it comes to health, hygiene and medical care. In one episode, Doc’s Jack-in-the-Box patient, Little Jack, is scared about getting a check-up. Doc (with help from Stuffy, Lambie, Hallie, Chilly and Squeakers) reassures him that Big Jack, his dad, will be with him the whole time, and ultimately she diagnoses him with a case of “Can’tpop-it is,” which she records in The Big Book of Boo Boos. Music plays a prominent role in “Doc McStuffins,” with each episode featuring an original song that conveys the health lesson that Doc and her friends learn that day. Some of the song titles include “Be Good to Your Tummy,” “Get Your Sleep On” and “Wash Your Hands.” In every episode, Doc and her helpers also sing “The Check-Up Song,” an upbeat tune that is intended to assist parents in easing their child’s fears of getting a check-up, as well as the “I Feel Better” song once the issue has been resolved for the “patient.”
The “Doc McStuffins” voice cast includes: Kiara Muhammad and Laya DeLeon Hayes as Doc, Loretta Devine as Hallie, Lara Jill Miller as Lambie, Robbie Rist as Stuffy, Jess Harnell as Chilly, Andre Robinson as Donny McStuffins, Kim Brooks as Mom McStuffins, and Gary Anthony Williams as Dad McStuffins. The series’ theme song is performed by singer-songwriter and actress China Anne McClain.

I am sure Doc McStuffins, Sophia the First, and the Mickey House Clubhouse will be renewed for years to come. They are very popular and Disney can sell lots of merchandise to go with them, (toys and DVDs). They are also three good programs that help to educate children and teach them valuable lessons.
Kids can go to the Disney parks to see these characters “live in person”, and about once a year, there are travelling shows that feature the “live” animated people from Disney programs that go to various cities, and Disney can make money that way. It’s normally named “Disney Live”.
Doc McStuffins is a very popular Disney character and she will not be cancelled anytime soon.

Please , Please, Please do not cancel Doc McStuffins. My granddaughters and I watched Doc McStuffins every day when they were toddlers, – one year apart. They learned all of the songs. Doc McStuffins takes the mystery and fear out of doctor’s visits. Once when it came time for their immunizations, they became fussy – we broke out with the theme song and even the doctor had to crack a smile. Doc McStuffin is a necessary tool. Parents need her.

My great niece loves Doc McStuffins she watches the show all the time. Because of Doc McStuffins she wants to be a Ballerina Doctor. At first she just wanted to be a Ballerina but she loves Doc McStuffins so much she added the doctor. You should see her doctoring on her stuffed animals and toys while Doc McStuffins is on. I am begging you, please renew Doc McStuffins. To African American girls Doc McStuffins is their hero. My niece would be crushed and so would I.
Denise says
My 3 year old absolutely adores Doc McStuffins. She knows all of the songs and this show has even made her experiences going to the doctor less scary. She knows what some of the doctor’s “scary” metal tools are and what they’re for. This show is such a gem. Even I enjoy it. I truly hope they renew.
andrea jackson says
I have to I’m sadden by the news that they maybe canceling my grandkids favorite show. Especially because my 5 yr old and 2 yr old granddaughters love it so much. My o pm rest wants to be a doctor she says just like Doc. Disney is making a sad mistake. Oil black girls don’t often get a positive character to look up to in tv and movies I think it’s a start with this particular show. Princesses are fine, but a doctor is more realistic. Please keep please keep this show going.
Michelle says
You can’t cancel Doc! She’s one of the few shows that has a decent female character in a primary role. I’ve used her countless times to explain to my children what’s going to happen when we go to the doctor’s office and I thank her for being the main reason why my daughter is running around saying she’s going to be a doctor. In a world filled with highly sexualised images focused on children, Doc is a breath of fresh air. In a world filled with a undercurrent of “girls can do anything… sort of” she’s the one standing up saying “This is who I am”. Please please please don’t cancel it!
Jai says
I am deeply saddened to hear that this show may be cancelled. I have a 2yo daughter who loves The show and learned to give check ups ( ears, eyes, heartbeat) when someone is not feeling well. I’ve even found myself enjoying the show after my daughter has fallen asleep. My entire family sings along to the songs. Pleeeease renew this show forever!!!!
Michelle says
Please do not cancel the show. My daughter loves that show. She has learned to care for her toys.
Pam says
If the show is not renewed, it tells a different story about Disney. It saddens me to think the show will not continue.
