Michele Schofield, SVP Content Distribution at One Animation, said: “Now more than ever, animated comedy content is providing children with much needed-escapism and comfort. Oddbods and Insectibles are both highly entertaining with heaps of fun and comedy, and it’s wonderful to see new and existing broadcast partners around the world embrace this pair of imaginative series.”
"Oddbods" is a globally loved, three-time Emmy Award-nominated, non-dialogue comedy featuring seven adorable, highly unique pals. Together, despite their differences, they survive the perils of everyday life, unintentionally turning ordinary situations into unexpected, extraordinary, and always humorous events.
"Insectibles" follows the adventures of Zak, Gramps, and three bio-mechanically enhanced insects as they search for the missing pieces of the ‘Shrinkinator’ - the crazy invention that shrunk Zak & Gramps before it exploded. They need to find the missing pieces and fix the Shrinkinator all while evading their enemies.
