Rob the Robot Set for Second Season

OTTAWA: Rob the Robot, co-produced by Amberwood Entertainment and Singapore’s ONE Animation, has been renewed for a second season of 52 episodes by Canada’s TVO and SRC.

The first season of 52 11-minute episodes will air weekdays at 8:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. in the Gisele’s Big Backyard block. The second season is now gearing up for production. The 3D animated series follows the adventures of a robot named Rob and his friends as they explore the planets of the Robot Galaxy.

“We are very excited for Rob the Robot to launch on-air and are extremely grateful for the continued support from our Canadian broadcasters,” said Jonathan Wiseman, the senior VP at Amberwood. “A second-season renewal this early on demonstrates the strength and appeal of the brand.”
