Spotlight: Gaumont

Stillwater, a mindfulness show for preschoolers from Gaumont, launched to critical acclaim last year, earning a Daytime Emmy and a Peabody.

“We hope it brings tools into kids’ (and parents’) lives that help them cope as they experience life’s little disappointments without losing sight of the greater joys,” says Terry Kalagian, executive VP of creative content for the U.S.

Also a preschool series, Do, Re & Mi stars Kristen Bell, Jackie Tohn and Luke Youngblood. A new set of episodes recently launched, and there are two holiday specials. The buddy comedy Bionic Max launched in France and “continues to find new homes across other markets around the world,” Kalagian says. Gaumont will also be launching Samurai Rabbit: The Usagi Chronicles, based on Stan Sakai’s Usagi Yojimbo comics, this year on Netflix.

“Gaumont, as always, will continue its commitment to develop and produce relevant, engaging stories,” adds Kalagian.
