Flipper from PAX was a children's adventure television series that aired from 1995 to 2000. It was produced by MGM Television and was based on the popular 1960s TV series of the same name. The show followed the adventures of the Ricks family, who lived in a coastal town in Florida. The father of the family, Dr. Keith Ricks (played by Brian Wimmer), was a marine biologist who worked at the local institute of oceanography. His two sons, Chris (played by Scott Michaelson) and Bud (played by Anja Coleby), were adventurous and loved to explore the ocean.

The family's life changed forever when they rescued a young dolphin, whom they named Flipper. The family nursed Flipper back to health and became very close to the clever and friendly dolphin. The show's premise revolved around the family's adventures with the Flipper and the various marine animals they encountered along the way.

As the show progressed, the Ricks family found themselves in some dangerous situations, but they always had the help of their loyal friend, Flipper. They also had the support of their close friends, Holly (played by Elizabeth Morehead) and Kim (played by Colleen Flynn), who often joined the family on their oceanic adventures.

One of the most notable things about Flipper from PAX was its use of real dolphins in the show. There were several trained dolphins who played the role of Flipper throughout the series, and they were all integral parts of the show's storylines. The show was often praised for its educational value, as it taught children about marine biology and conservation efforts.

Flipper from PAX also featured some well-known guest stars, including Jessica Alba and Whip Hubley. Jessica Alba played a young girl who develops a special bond with Flipper, while Whip Hubley played an oceanographer who helps the Ricks family during a dangerous situation.

The show was shot entirely on location in Australia, which added to its authenticity and natural beauty. The oceanic vistas and crystal-clear waters made the show a visual treat, and it was praised for its cinematography and use of color.

Overall, Flipper from PAX was a beloved children's show that entertained and educated its audience. It taught valuable lessons about friendship, family, and the importance of protecting our oceans and its inhabitants. The show's engaging plotlines and charismatic characters made it a fan favorite, and it remains a beloved classic to this day.
