"Hergé's Adventures of Tintin" was an animated television series based on Hergé's popular comic book series, "The Adventures of Tintin". The series was produced by Belvision and aired from 1958 to 1962, with 104 five-minute episodes produced. The series was adapted by Greg, the editor of Tintin magazine and directed by Charles Shows and Jose Dutillilieu.

Comparisons with the books

This series varied widely from the original books, often changing whole plots. For instance, in the book "Explorers on the Moon", Tintin goes to the moon for scientific exploration, but in the episodes of "Objective Moon Espionage", he goes to rescue the trapped Snowy. Most fans of the original books prefer the later television series "The Adventures of Tintin" as it is truer to the original books.
