Playtime with Mikey is an educational children's television series broadcasted by Tower TV. The show focuses on the title character Mikey, an Australian Doll dressed in a baggy monkey costume, who plays games with preschool students and teaches them lessons about subjects like math, friendship, and sharing. While the show seems to be innocent enough, it occasionally shows hints of being far more sinister than it initially appears to be. During the show the children may display signs of their happiness being forced and some seem to be hiding the fact that they're afraid of Mikey or the guests. Others bear an uncanny resemblance to children seen on missing child posters, and sometimes children that were present for multiple episodes can disappear with no explanation.
