TELETOON Teams with Sardine for New Animated Series

MONTREAL: TELETOON and Sardine Productions are developing a new 52×11-minute series, tentatively titled Tim, about an ordinary boy who finds himself inexplicably as a cartoon character in an animated world.

In the series, Tim quickly discovers that being a cartoon is not as easy as it looks. While he enjoys getting to socialize with superheros, he also learns that villains are never far behind.

"We are looking forward to working with TELETOON on this special project," said the president of Sardine Productions, Ghislain Cyr. "It is a wonderfully original concept which our creative team is very excited about. We are ready to take this series to its fullest potential!”

Tim has the potential to really grab audiences as it explores and celebrates everything our viewers love about cartoons,” added Carole Bonneau, the VP of programming at TELETOON. “It is a charming idea for a show and we are so proud to have been involved with its evolution, from an idea first brought forward during the TELETOON scriptwriting program at l’INIS to its current stage of development.”
