After Disney-Pixar animator Joshua Slice’s 40-second shorts became on overnight streaming hit in 2017, Tom McGillis and his Fresh TV partners helped turn the adorable, kind-hearted, and lovable arachnid’s adventures into a fun, new series for Cartoon Network’s preschool animation block.
Renewals are part of the network’s largest preschool content pipeline ever.
Kids cable network doubles its preschool slate with Channel 5 co-production ‘Nella the Princess Knight,’ 9 Story co-production ‘Top Wing,’ Spin Master Entertainment’s ‘Abby Hatcher’ and Brown Bag Films’ ‘Butterbean’s Café,’ as well as new specials for ‘Blaze and the Monster Machines’ and ‘PAW Patrol.’
Cable network details plans to head into the new season with more than 650 episodes of new and returning series, including ‘Rusty Rivets,’ ‘The Loud House,’ ‘Bunsen is a Beast!,’ ‘Mysticons,’ ‘Welcome to the Wayne,’ ‘Pinky Malinky,’ and animated TV movies ‘Albert’ and ‘Hey Arnold!’
