Miss Persona is a Canadian children's television program for preschoolers, which premiered in 2018.[1] Inspired by past programs such as The Big Comfy Couch and Mr. Dressup, the series was created by children's entertainer Kimberly Persona, and features her in character as a woman who lives in a treehouse in the forest with her teddy bear friend Brandon, and uses songs, games and dress-up role play to teach children how to solve problems.[1]
The show's cast also includes Brandon Lane, Kyle Dooley, Andrew Hunt, Alyson Court, Joseph Motiki, Fred Penner, and professional wrestler Santino Marella, with puppeteers Mike Petersen, and Ingrid Hansen.[1]
The show premiered as a web series on Treehouse TV's YouTube channel in 2018, before being added to the schedule of Treehouse's linear television channel in 2019.[1]
In 2020, Persona starred in a special public service announcement to educate kids about the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] In 2021, it became the first Treehouse TV show to include an age-appropriate LGBTQ-themed storyline, with Miss Persona's mother (Jane McClelland) marrying her partner Lorna (Elvira Kurt).[3]
The series received two Daytime Emmy Award nominations, for Outstanding Preschool Series and Outstanding Performer in a Children's, Family Viewing or Special Class Program, at the 46th Daytime Emmy Awards in 2019,[4] and two Canadian Screen Award nominations, for Best Preschool Program or Series and the Shaw Rocket Fund Kids Choice award, at the 10th Canadian Screen Awards in 2022.[5]
