Suckers

ORIGIN: The show is based on an original idea from Juanma Sánchez and José Luis Ucha.

DISTRIBUTOR: BRB Internacional 

CREATORS: Screen 21, Genoma Digital and TVC

TV SHOW: Suckers is an HD 3-D series consisting of 104 two-minute episodes. The slapstick comedy series features no dialogue and is aimed at 8- to 12-year-olds.

DESCRIPTION: This dialogue-free, slapstick comedy is direct and a bit irreverent. The show features a selection of funny reality bites from the Suckers, a group of peculiar toys that live on the back windows of cars. They talk about their interests, their dreams, their fears, their ambitions, their challenges… and also the things that bother them. Welcome to the secret life of Suckers!

EXECUTIVE PRODUCER: Carlos Biern

MAIN BROADCASTER: Disney XD

TV SALES: In addition to Disney XD, France 3 has also signed on for the series.

MAJOR TOY LICENSEES: Discussions are under way with potential licensees for Suckers.

OTHER PRODUCTS: The consumer-products strategy includes toys, plush and games, car accessories, apparel and textiles, stationery and back-to-school items, home furnishing and decoration, collectible PVC figurines and gifts. There are also plans for mobile extensions and video games.

STRATEGY FOR ROLLOUT: With the Disney XD deal in the U.S., Europe, the Middle East and Africa, India and Japan, as well as the France 3 agreement, BRB Internacional will continue to consolidate the awareness of Suckers in each territory, finding the best partners locally. The objective is to create a strong international brand for 8- to 12-year-olds, particularly boys. Additional broadcast partners will be announced in the coming weeks.
