CCI Picks Up New Animated Comedy

SYDNEY: The recently greenlit animated comedy Teenage Fairytale Dropouts has been picked up for worldwide distribution by CCI Entertainment.

The show, an international co-production between Anima Estudios, SLR Productions, Home Plate Entertainment and Telegael, tells the story of three best friends and second generation fairytale characters who are determined to be themselves—no matter what their well-known fairytale parents think about it. Jeremiah is the son of The Giant from Jack and the Beanstalk, Fury is the daughter of the Tooth Fairy and Trafalgar is one of Merlin’s many nephews. The HD Flash-animated 52×11-minute series is slated for broadcast release in 2013. 

“The series offers a great fun premise that will have plenty of appeal for broadcasters. We are thrilled to be representing it internationally and also to be able to work with such a stellar production team,” said the executive VP of distribution at CCI Entertainment, Jill Keenleyside.
