History of the Smurfs
hosted by Rebecca Brayton
Created in 1958 by Belgian cartoonist Pierre Culliford, who wrote under the pen name "Peyo", they originally debuted in the Belgian magazine Spirou as Les Schtroumpfs. Starting out as side-characters created for the medieval comic Johan and Pirlouit, these tiny blue-skinned creatures became a reoccurring staple of the series. Gaining instant popularity, they garnered their own stories in 1959 and began receiving countless forms of merchandising, which included miniatures, games, toys and their own 80s cartoon series. In 2011, these creatures will finaly receive a cinematic reboot in their own big-budget live-action family film. Join us as we take a look back at the history of The Smurfs.

I have already see this video before on Youtube, weeks before. Quite informative even though I am quite surprised that Smurfette is not mentioned as among the "iconic" Smurfs. Of course the list is not exhaustive and more "iconic" Smurfs can be listed.
