Pixel is a main character in LazyTown. He’s a computer genius and inventor. He has trouble interacting with other people and coping with problems. He has tendency to invent gadgets that make his life easier, like speeding up his homework, tying his shoelaces, or even playing sports for him. He represents antisocial behavior and his health issue is media moderation. DescriptionEngaged, earnest, and focused, Pixel navigates video games and electronic technology with masterful skill. But all of the hours he's spent logged on have left him ill-prepared for the illogical and uncontrollable forces at play when he hangs with real people. The remote control he carries in his holster can't mute arguments, or change the programming of friends, so he must either retreat to his consistent world of bits and bytes or struggle through the messy moments of friendship. Sometimes the only way he can communicate with other kids is through his love of technology, rambling on with dazzling data when a simple "yes" or "no" would do. His ability and instinct to solve problems using technology are valuable when the others need to figure some-thing out, but Pixel nearly short-circuits when faced with a simple question like: "What’s your favorite color?" Or how he feels about Stephanie. He has such a crush; he almost can't talk around her. Talk about computer malfunction! — LazyTown.com LooksPixel has dark skin, red-orange hair, and brown eyes. He usually wears a white t-shirt with orange sleeves and his name printed on the front, a blue shirt underneath, a pair of baggy jeans, and big sneakers. He also sports a headpiece with silver antennae, a translucent visor, and a belt that contains many gadgets. PersonalityPixel is the resident computer genius in town. He can do a lot of different things with his computer, and all this stuff is pretty well appreciated by the people of Lazy Town. For example, throughout the series, he runs a TV Station, invents spy gadgets and helps gather various information with his computer. He really takes pride in his inventions and becomes quite upset if something happens to one of them. While he can easily understand the logical ways of computing and calculation, Pixel is reclusive and has trouble interacting with people, and understanding the illogical ways of the humans. He loves his friends and his friendship, but he has serious troubles understanding them. He's absent for a good part of Season 1 (While since Season 2 he appears more). Whilst no explanation is given about this fact, it is assumed that he prefers to spend his time working on his computer than playing outside with his friends. Pixel's room is the usual meeting place after the playground, it's seem because he has video games. He has a good relationship with all his friends, but sometimes Ziggy and Stingy can challenge his capacity of understand people. Pixel has little patience, getting fed up quickly when someone it's doing something stupid or annoying. Stephanie is always trying to drag him outside to play, but Pixel usually prefers to stay inside. AppearancesPixel appears in many episodes of LazyTown. He appears the least out of the kids. His debut was in "Welcome to LazyTown" and his last appearance was in "Mystery of the Pyramid". He also appears in the following LazyTown productions that are not part of the series:

PerformersPixel is unique among the LazyTown characters, having gone through several changes in voice actors and performers. When production on the first season began, Pixel's voice was provided by Noel MacNeal. Kobie Powell was given the role after some early episodes had already been filmed, so Noel's work was redubbed with Kobie's voice. However, Noel can still be heard as Pixel's voice in some releases; one example is the iTunes release of "Defeeted". The Pixel puppet has been performed by Ronald Binion since the first episode, although Julie Westwood (who normally plays Bessie) took over the role for several episodes of the first season. Kobie Powell stopped providing Pixel's voice after the second season; Ronald Binion provided both the puppetry and voice for Pixel for all later episodes. Primary performers:
