Ringwald and Molly is a live-action puppet show created by Rob Schrab for Channel 101. It is one of the five initial prime-time shows that debuted during Channel 101's first screening.
The show initially debuted at the Super Midnight Movie Show, using the movie Fresh Horses as a prompt, which features Molly Ringwald as a lead actress.
The show uses "drawless animation", a DIY technique coined by Schrab, which uses a combination of puppetry, cardboard, and hot glue.
The series was self-released on DVD through Rob Schrab's website around 2005, containing special features.
