Synopsis
Tubby never misses an opportunity to get out of his chores, so when he gets a thorn stuck in his thumb while trimming the hedge, he makes the most of it. Claiming that the wound may be infected, he talks Lulu into taking him to the hospital. Once there, he plans to get a doctor's note explaining why he was unable to finish his yard work. They decide to avoid the wait in the emergency room, and they go looking for a doctor on their own. But Tubby unwisely steals a piece of cake from a food tray, and now they're on the run from one very determined orderly.

Production notes
The episodes are based on the original comics and combine Lulu's stand-up routines with her neighborhood adventures. Lulu is joined by the old gang, including her best friend Tubby, pint-sized Alvin, buck-toothed Annie and smooth Willie, among others. The response to "The Little Lulu Show" has proven that the resourceful and feisty girl in her signature red dress is a hit with a whole new generation.
A 52-episode series. Each show consisted of two LuluToons and a Lulu-Bite, with a stand-up sequence in between each segment.
