Lisa is a Swedish-German-Hungarian animated preschool television series created by Magnus Carlsson. [2] It was produced by Happy Life and is aimed at younger children. [3]
The Lisa series was first produced as a series of cinematically-released short films. The first short film, Lisa får en barnvakt, premiered in June 1996 [4] and was released as a book the following year. Two further short films, Lisa hos tandläkaren and Lisa på picknick, were granted funding from the Swedish Film Institute in February 1997 [5] and released in January 1998. [6] [7]
The series was aired on SVT beginning in 1999. [8] It also aired on KIKA in Germany.

Carlsson left Happy Life for a few years after having co-founded the studio, but Happy Life went on to produce more episodes of Lisa without Carlsson's involvement nor approval. Carlsson then sued his former employer for copyright infringement, a lawsuit he won in arbitration by January 2002. [10]
The series focuses on Lisa, a title little girl lead who also serves as the narrator. [13] She lives with her parents in a two-story house. Sometimes, she visits his dad's place of work and they walk around town. She likes to play with her parents and neighbours. Various children have playmates and play in her yard.
