Girlstuff/Boystuff is an animated children’s program from Canada, developed by Ruth Beni. It was broadcast on YTV within Canada and featured in the United States on Noggin's evening segment, The N.

Overview

The narrative centers on a group of six adolescent friends—three girls (Hanna, Reanne, Talia) and three boys (Jason, Ben, Simon)—who engage in conversations about the distinctions between genders, covering subjects such as interests, cuisine, music preferences, and style.

Characters

• Hanna: A trend-conscious leader who loves shopping and shaping fashion choices among her peers.
• Reanne: A nature-loving free spirit dedicated to animal welfare and environmental causes.
• Talia: The youngest in the group, displaying a sophisticated demeanor with passions including videography, photography, and running her personal website.
• Jason: Talia’s brother and a devoted music fan aspiring to become a DJ, often recognized by his headphones.
