What happens

Wake, Rattle, and Roll (retitled Jump, Rattle, and Roll when it aired on The Disney Channel on weekday afternoons in 1991) is an American live-action/animated television series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions and Four Point Entertainment that premiered in the fall of 1990. As the show's title suggests, Hanna-Barbera intended the show to air on its affiliated stations in a morning timeslot before school. The show's title was inspired by the song "Shake, Rattle and Roll". After its single season on the air in syndication, Wake, Rattle, and Roll moved exclusively to The Disney Channel under the title Jump, Rattle, and Roll, with the title adjustment due to its repeats not being confined to mornings. Jump, Rattle, and Roll ran on The Disney Channel from October 7, 1991, to 1994, becoming the only Hanna-Barbera animated series ever to air on that network. It has also been screened on Network Ten in Australia, TV1 in Malaysia, Channel 2 in New Zealand, M-Net in South Africa, Channel 5 in Singapore and TV5 in the Philippines while the animated segments were broadcast on ITV in the UK as part of the short running Saturday morning children's programme TV Mayhem, becoming the first series to debut on ITV during TV Mayhem.
