Corus Entertainment’s Nelvana, international producer and distributor of children’s animated and live action content, gets two major distribution agreements with TF1 and Boomerang for its all-new 3D animated series, "Agent Binky: Pets of the Universe".
Presented by redknot, a joint venture between Nelvana and Discovery Inc., "Agent Binky: Pets of the Universe" (52x11 minutes), will roll out internationally on Discovery Kids (LATAM), TF1 (France) and WarnerMedia’s Boomerang (EMEA) starting from Spring 2020. The series launched on Corus Entertainment’s Treehouse in Canada this past September.
“Agent Binky: Pets of the Universe' is a light-hearted and imaginative series that encourages teamwork, friendship, and growth through daily adventures,” says Pam Westman, President, Nelvana. “Brimming with witty, slapstick humour from a team of dedicated and adorable pets, the series is bound to resonate with kids and families around the world.”
“We’re delighted and honoured to partner with Nelvana to bring 'Agent Binky: Pets of the Universe' to international audiences,” says Yann Labasque, Head of Youth Programmes, TF1. “Nelvana has a proven track record in the production of award-winning children’s content and we cannot wait to see how our fans respond to the silliness, dancing and adventure that this exciting new series has to offer.”
Based on the acclaimed Kids Can Press graphic novels, written and illustrated by the award-winning author-illustrator Ashley Spires, "Agent Binky: Pets of the Universe" follows the adventures of Binky, a house cat with a curious and imaginative mind, and his fellow P.U.R.S.T. agents (Pets of the Universe Ready for Space Travel) who are on a mission to protect their human families from aliens, robots, and interstellar threats.
