Overview
CityKids was a television series that aired Saturday mornings on ABC from 1993 to 1994, primarily targeted to a teenage audience. The show consisted primarily of live action performances, interspersed with Muppet segments, courtesy of Jim Henson Productions. The Muppets included original characters designed specifically for the show, serving as a Greek chorus and commenting on the situations of the human characters, but not actually interacting with them.
The show's theme song was composed by Malik Yoba &and Raliegh J. Neal II. The duo also composed other songs for the series and served as musical creative supervisors.
