Floogals travel down under

Floogals launched on Sprout in the US

MIPCOM: Broadcasters in Australia, Italy and the UK have become the latest to pick up animated series Floogals from Zodiak Kids.

ABC in Australia, Cartoonito and DeAJunior in Italy and BBC Alba for Gaelic-speaking UK have acquired the 52×11’ series, which launched on NBCUniversal-owned Sprout in the US earlier this year.

The show, produced using a mixture of photo-real CGI and live-action, follows pocket-sized aliens and their adventures around the Earth.

It is based on an original idea from Dan Good and developed by Zodiak Kids Studios UK in conjunction with UK special effects studio Jellyfish Pictures and Nevision.

Other broadcasters to have acquired the series from Zodiak Kids include Discovery Kids in Latin America, TVO & Knowledge Network in Canada, Hop! Channel in Israel, YLE in Finland, Canal Panda in Portugal and MBC in the Middle East.
