Lamb Chop's Play-Along is a children's television show filmed in Beverly Hills, California and Vancouver that was shown on PBS in the United States from 1992 to 1997, as well as on YTV in Canada. 200 episodes of the show were produced. It was created and hosted by puppeteer Shari Lewis, and featured her puppet character Lamb Chop. Appropriately, Lamb Chop was a sheep; other characters were puppets of other farm animals, including Charlie Horse and Hush Puppy. WTTW jointly distributed it with Paragon Entertainment Corporation to PBS stations across the country. The rights to the show are currently owned by Boomerang Media through its control of Classic Media. Reruns of the first 26 episodes have recently begun to be broadcast on qubo's digital channel, which is partially owned by Classic Media. It premiered on PBS October 30, 1992.

Theme song

The opening theme song was "It's Lamb Chop's Play-Along", written by veteran Hollywood composer Bob Golden. Other songs were written by Square One TV songwriter, John Rodby. The ending theme was more memorable, as the children and puppets sang "The Song That Never Ends", while Lewis frantically attempted to stop them.

An instrumental version of the show's theme song was used for a most recent show of Mallory Lewis and Lamb Chop.
