| IMDb profile | |
The Care Bears in the Land Without Feelings is the first television special to feature the Care Bears characters. Made by Atkinson Film-Arts of Canada, it premiered on syndication in April 1983.
Much of what is seen in the special serves as a pilot of sorts to the DiC/Nelvana animated television series of later years. Surprisingly enough, only the ten original Bears (see Tenderheart's profile in List of Care Bears) appear in this one along with the rarely-seen Cloud-Keeper and Professor Coldheart. All of them would come back for The Care Bears Battle the Freeze Machine the following year.
The special won a Silver Medal at 1983's International Film & TV Festival of New York. [1]
[edit] Plot
The ten happy Care Bears are sent on a mission to help people express and share their feelings. They must also save a boy named Kevin from the evil Professor Coldheart. Many songs are heard along the way, as the movie is a musical.
