Television platforms that have put their paws up for the first
season (39 x 7 minutes) of the adorable live-action animal series
for preschoolers include: France TV (France, Andorra,
Monaco, Martinique, Guadeloupe, French Guyana, Reunion, Saint
Pierre and Miquelon, French Polynesia, New Caledonia, Wallis and
Futuna, Mayotte), Warner Bros. Discovery’s Cartoonito, Cartoon
Network and Boomerang channels (Australia, New Zealand,
Southeast Asia, Hong Kong and Taiwan), Hop! Channel (Israel)
and DR Denmark (Denmark, Greenland and Faroe Islands). These
new television partners join CBC Kids in Canada and the U.K.’s Sky
Kids, which both launched the series in February 2023.
Mittens & Pants features best friends Mittens the kitten and
Pants the puppy who live in the all-animal town of Kibble Corners.
Despite being a kitten and a puppy, they are the best of friends
because they accept that they are different and know that being
different is good.
“Mittens & Pants was crafted by Windy Isle to stand out in a
crowded preschool landscape,” said Richard Goldsmith, Thunderbird
President of Global Distribution & Consumer Products. “The
series has all the ingredients that young kids love, and platforms
recognize the value of having a quality live-action series amid the
sea of animation. Mittens & Pants is also perfect for
short-form content that will reach kids and parents and promote our
television and other partners. The incredibly cute all-animal cast,
bright and colourful sets and vehicles, and clever stories are why
we are so excited about the potential for Mittens & Pants to
become a popular brand.”
Given the popularity of Season 1 of the series in Canada and the
U.K., Windy Isle received a quick greenlight for a second season of
Mittens & Pants (41 x 7 minutes) earlier this year. The new
season premiered on CBC Kids and CBC Gem in Canada in July and will
debut on Sky Kids in the U.K. this fall.
The series was produced with the participation of the Canada
Media Fund, with the assistance of Ontario Creates and the Canadian
Film or Video Production Tax Credit, and produced with the
financial participation of the Shaw Rocket Fund.
Thunderbird Distribution is bringing both seasons of Mittens
& Pants to international sales market mipjunior/MIPCOM taking
place in Cannes, France, October 14 to 19, 2023.
