The films' casts include Brad Garrett, Jay Leno and Jamie Lynn Spears. "Unstable Fables" irreverently and unfaithfully retell classic fairy tales, folktale, and fables with a modern twist. The first film, 3 Pigs and a Baby (based on "Three Little Pigs"), was released on DVD on March 4, 2008. The second title, Tortoise vs. Hare (based on "The Tortoise and the Hare"), was released on September 9, 2008. The third and final release, The Goldilocks and the 3 Bears Show (based on Goldilocks and the Three Bears), was released on December 16, 2008.
3 Pigs and a Baby is the first animated film in the series based on "Three Little Pigs". The direct-to-DVD film was released on March 4, 2008 and stars Jon Cryer, Brad Garrett, Steve Zahn and Jesse McCartney.
The Three Little Pigs become the target of a special-ops team of wolves. The wolves' plan to finally infiltrate the impenetrable house of bricks by leaving a tiny wolf cub on the unassuming pigs' doorstep. The pigs take the baby in and raise him as their own. The newest addition to their family, Lucky, grows up into his teens not knowing his history, his role in the wolves' plan or the difficult choice he will have to make about the family that raised him.
