Hi-5 Philippines is the Filipino version of the Australian children's edutainment series of the same title as the first franchise in Asia. Hi-5 Philippines had its first broadcast on TV5 on June 15, 2015, and aired every Monday to Friday morning. The series mostly adapted the original version's Season 11-13.

Contents

Hi-5 Philippines was televised exclusively on said network until is final episode debuted on April 29, 2016, at the end of its second season. On May 2, 2016, episodes of the second season aired in reruns and from January 9 to September 1, 2017, the second season reran in shortened format featuring only the first two segments of each episode due to time constrains (when newer shows began to air).

Introduction

Launched in Australia in 1999, Hi-5 rapidly grew in popularity over the years. It has won three Logie Awards for Most Outstanding Children's Program, five ARIA Awards for Best Children's Album and five Australian DVD and Video Industry Awards, among other achievements. It was then that Hi-5 started expanding its reach by franchising the show across North America, Europe, Australasia, Latin America, and Asia. However, this is the first time that the Hi-5 franchise assembled an entirely new cast for the localization of the show in Asia. The Filipino version of the musical group is currently one of the only two casts for Hi-5, the other one being the Australian cast.
