‘Dot Conner’ Fires Shot Across Disney’s Bow

Creator of 'Webtective' series brings Biblical spirit to children's programming

Mainstream media has long been criticized for promoting ideologies that run counter to traditional values, especially those rooted in biblical ethics.

In recent years, this trend has taken a disturbing turn, with even children becoming a target of these radical agendas. The biggest content brands have introduced characters representing extreme gender and sexual ideologies across programs designed for all ages, including toddlers.

What’s even more worrisome is how explicitly they’ve stated their goal: to indoctrinate children.

Recognizing the pressing need for quality entertainment that upholds traditional values, I created the series “Dot Conner: Webtective.” Dot Conner is a self-proclaimed “webtective,” a detective who utilizes the power of the internet to solve mysteries.

In Dot’s experience, there are no bigger mysteries than the questions she has about her Christian faith. With the help of her best friends Makayla and Alex, Dot pursues answers to those questions using detective techniques all while sharing her adventures with her online audience.

In the course of her investigations, Dot interviews real life experts, authors, and celebrities who help guide her to Scriptural truth that can help her navigate her every day life according to God’s will.

The show encompasses a unique blend of theology, humor and mystery, catering precisely to the content cravings of modern families. While the reasons I created the show are varied, chief among them is what my own family has personally experienced with both the insidious agendas of general media and the lack of quality in alternative media.

Motivated by a desire to not only entertain but also to foster a welcoming environment for children’s curiosity about God, the Bible and faith, I infused deep Christian concepts seamlessly into the narrative of Dot and her friends, melding detective work with spiritual exploration.

While “Dot Conner: Webtective” retains elements of educational instruction, its essence aligns with popular educational entertainment programs such as those found on PBS, like “Wild Kratts” and “Odd Squad.”

Its distinctiveness lies in its explicit incorporation of sound biblical teachings, filling a void in the current media landscape that lacks sufficient content catering to the 8-12-year-old demographic from a Christian or conservative perspective.

What Christian and conservative content is being made for all audiences is also hit or miss when it comes to production quality. While “Dot Conner: Webtective” is explicit in its Christian message, the series looks and feels like it would be right on home on any major channel or platform. From the cinematography, to the sound, and the animation, there’s nothing quite like it in the current market.

In an era characterized by the urgent need for entertainment that reinforces traditional biblical values, the significance of shows like “Dot Conner: Webtective” cannot be overstated. A retrospective analysis of the prevailing cultural decay underlines the consequences of decades of unbridled, anti-biblical media influence.

To cultivate a generation grounded in principles of truth and freedom, it is imperative to produce content that not only engages but also nurtures young minds. 

The first season of “Dot Conner: Webtective” is now available for streaming on multiple platforms. Visit www.dotconner.com today to embark on a journey of faith and adventure with Dot and her friends.
