A study conducted in the United Kingdom found that autistic children were far more fascinated by the television series, "Thomas and Friends," than they were with other fictional characters.

The study, by the National Autistic Society, summarized that the show held such appeal because of the clear facial expressions of the characters, the pacing of the program and the easy-to-follow story lines.

We are use to stop and go animation of Thomas the Tank Engine. Thomas the Tank Engine series has remained one of the most low-teach animated series. Now Thomas will be computer generated when it returns to PBS this fall.
