Word World is a very odd preschool show that centers on Funny Animals and a non-anthro dog -- who are all living words. They live in Wordville and can build new things out of letters. If you need a house, just build one out of the appropriate letters.

Pretty convoluted for something that's meant to teach kids how to spell, but whatever works.

Target has made a lot of merchandise for the show.

The Characters page.

Tropes used:

Amazing Technicolor Population: Either there are two main cats, one a blue Siamese cat and one a purple cat with a white muzzle, facial blaze, and white paws, or Cat changes color depending on her job in the episode. Also, why are Sheep's arms and legs purple? Pig's hooves . . . they sure like purple in this show.
Carnivore Confusion: Shark
Chaste Toons: Pig's three nephews
Christmas Episode: "The Christmas Star / A Christmas Present for Dog"
Deadpan Snarker: Duck
Disembodied Eyebrows
A Dog Named Dog.... and a sheep, and a bear, and a duck, and a frog...
The Everyman: Sheep
Everythings Even Worse With Sharks: Averted with shark.
Exactly What It Says On the Tin: The animals themselves.
Four Legged Insect: Inverted with Cricket and averted with the other insects.
- Cricket has eight legs like an arachnid and Spider has six legs (and two antennae) like an insect.
Funny Animal: Everyone except Dog and Cow.
Furry Confusion: Cow and Dog rarely talk, though often Dog's barks sound close to words. There are even realistic sea creatures.
- Dog can't talk, but he actually owns a house, whereas Pig lives in a barn, Bear lives in a cave, Sheep lives in hay, Frog lives in a log, and Duck has a nest.
Heterosexual Life Partners: Pig and Ant, Duck and Frog, and Bear and Sheep
Hey Its That Voice: Who knew that Sheep was Ash Ketchum?
Interactive Narrator: He is sometimes heard talking with the characters, usually at the beginning of a story.
Loads and Loads of Characters: Potentially any noun that refers to a living thing.
Living Prop: Cow
Merchandise Driven: Tons of merchandise sold at Target. The new characters introduced for merchandise who don't appear in the show presumably have been Killed Off for Real.
Minor Injury Overreaction: In an episode in which Pig is sneezing, Sheep attempts to take him to the hospital.
No Cartoon Fish: Only a few cartoony fish have been seen.
Our Monsters Are Different: Monster, who is a red monster shaped like his name.
Partially Civilized Animal: Any four-legged Word World character (Tiger, Elephant, Turtle, Monkey, Dog, Cat, and Goat)
Shaped Like Itself: Litteraly.
Single Minded Twins: Pig's nephews
The Smart Guy: Frog
- Except when his Large Ham qualities turn him into a Know Nothing Know It All.
Steam Never Dies: The train is a large blue steam locomotive shaped like the word "TRAIN" that is for some reason fuelled by letters, couldn't decide whether it should have a 2-2-2 or a 4-2-0 wheel arrangement, and doesn't have anyone driving it.
Tailfin Walking: Shark
