Omens Studios Inks MENA Deal with MBC Media

Animation studio’s trio of kids’ series heads to SVOD and AVOD platforms Shahid VIP and Shahid; the deal kicks off later this month with the debut of ‘Counting With Paula’ Season 5 and ‘Leo the Wildlife Ranger.’

Singapore and London-based Omens Studios has secured a deal with MBC Media to bring its trio of animated series to the SVOD and AVOD platforms Shahid VIP and Shahid for MENA and Arabic dubbed worldwide. Counting With Paula Season 5 (60 x 11’) and Leo the Wildlife Ranger Season 2 (52 x 11’) will launch on the platforms later this month. The brand-new series, 123 Number Squad (40 x 11’) and Season 6 of Counting with Paula will debut Summer 2022.

“This is the first presale for our exciting new show 123 Number Squad as our preschool slate continues to grow from strength to strength,” commented Omens Studios' London managing director Harry Teper. “We are delighted that with MBC as a partner we will be extending the global footprint of these three unique series, all filled with fun, adventure and loveable characters.”

Aimed at children aged 3-6, Counting With Paula follows six-year-old Paula and her friends Tim, Billy, Chalkie, Calc, and the Numbers as they go on exciting adventures to colorful and exotic places, where they solve problems and make new friends.

123 Number Squad is the first preschool production from Omens Studios’ growing UK office. Featuring a diverse cast on screen and brought to life by a diverse group of creatives off screen, the CG-animated series for 4–6-year-olds follows Paula, Tim, and Billy – three best friends with a shared love of numbers, fun, and games, hanging out together in their playroom HQ.

The CG-animated Leo the Wildlife Ranger is aimed at children aged 3-6. The show features Junior Rangers Leo and Katie and their loyal canine companion Hero, on their quest to explore the world, embark on exciting missions and meet new animals and friends along the way. 

Counting With Paula and Leo the Wildlife Ranger were recently recognized at the 42nd Annual Telly Awards. Counting With Paula Season 4 took home Bronze in the ‘General – Children’ category, and Leo the Wildlife Ranger Season 2 won Silver for the ‘Series - Animation’ category.
