Friends and Heroes is an animated Christian children's television program that airs on TBN, Smile of a Child TV, and was also shown on BBC TV. It takes place from 69–71 AD, during the First Jewish–Roman War. There are three seasons or "series", each comprising 13 episodes: Season 1 is set in Alexandria, Egypt; Season 2 in Jerusalem and Season 3 in Rome. The series was created by Brian D. Brown and Eric J. Danenberg, who also worked on The Storykeepers. Gary Kurtz, the producer for season one, also produced American Graffiti, Star Wars, and The Empire Strikes Back. Starting with the second season, the show is produced in HD.
All three series have now been translated and dubbed into Arabic, Chinese (both Mandarin, and Taiwan Mandarin), French, German, Hindi, Korean, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, and Latin American Spanish. The first season was also dubbed in Manx Gaelic, being the first animated series to be dubbed in said language.
The series was also broadcast on the Australian Christian Channel in Australia.
