The Care Bears in the Land Without Feelings is the first animated television special to feature the Care Bears characters. It was made by Ottawa's Atkinson Film-Arts studio, and premiered in syndication on April 22, 1983. The special features the ten original Bears, along with the Cloud-Keeper and the villain Professor Coldheart; they would return in 1984's The Care Bears Battle the Freeze Machine.
Kevin, a boy on Earth, is upset because he has to move away from his younger friend Donna. After declaring that he does not care, he decides to run away and ends up in The Land Without Feelings, which is ruled by the misanthropic and winter-centric mad scientist Professor Coldheart. He turns Kevin into a green amphibian-like goblin via a soda-like potion and declares him a slave. The Care Bears, along with Donna, go into the Land Without Feelings to save Kevin and the other children Coldheart transformed. Tenderheart Bear attempts to climb up to Coldheart's castle, but is caught in a trap by Coldheart himself. Wish Bear makes a wish to be teleported to Coldheart's castle with Grumpy Bear and Donna, along with the other Care Bears. The Care Bears use their magic 'Care Bear Stare' to change Kevin and the other children back to normal, and Coldheart flees.
