Studio 100’s Blinky Bill Lands in Sweden & Norway

MUNICH: Studio 100 Media has secured several deals for the CGI animated series The Wild Adventures of Blinky Bill in the Nordics.

The 52×12-minute show was picked up by kids’ pubcaster NRK Super for Norway. In Sweden, SVT Barnkanalen also acquired The Wild Adventures of Blinky Bill, while Nelonen Media secured the rights for Finland last year. In addition, home entertainment and VOD rights were sold to SF Studios. SVT Barnkanalen will begin airing the series this summer.

Martin Krieger, the head of global distribution at Studio 100 Media, commented, “We are pleased about the ongoing collaboration with our long-term partners Nelonen Media, NRK Super and SVT Barnkanalen, as well as SF Studios. All these channels and distributors are already home to other Studio 100 animation and live-action shows such as Maya the Bee, Heidi, Tashi or Kosmoo and Nightwatch. Our team is confident that the Australian icon Blinky Bill will sweep the Nordics off their feet in this witty and cheeky CGI version.”
