Nickelodeon Releases 'Dora the Explorer' Pilot Intro to Celebrate Beloved Preschool Property's 25th Anniversary

Today (Aug. 14) marks the 25th anniversary of the debut of Nickelodeon's beloved preschool property, Dora the Explorer, and to celebrate, Nickelodeon's official Dora Instagram page has released the intro and theme song to the unaired pilot episode of Dora the Explorer!

Although the pilot episode of Dora the Explorer features many of the same designs and aspects that would eventually go on and feature in the show, there are a few notable differences, including Boots, who has a completely different design: he doesn't wear his iconic red boots and has a mostly yellow fur, instead of the mainly grey body he has in the series. The theme song and intro, although similar, have a few minor differences, too. The pilot also features fan favorite characters such as Backpack, Map, and of course, Swiper!


The Dora the Explorer pilot would eventually get remade into the episode "Beaches."
