Xilam Animation’s first-ever CGI slapstick comedy, Karate Sheep is a non-verbal series that follows a sheep named Trico who loves to share new objects and ideas with the rest of the flock.

“Slapstick comedies are a core part of our company’s legacy and DNA, so we’re excited to be launching another series in this genre for the international market,” says Morgann Favennec, executive VP of distribution. “We’re sure Trico’s adventures will charm and entertain audiences across the globe.”

The fourth season of the comedy series Zig & Sharko will feature Zig, Sharko and Bernie making their way back to their island with Marina.

A reboot of the comedy franchise Oggy and the Cockroaches, Oggy and the Cockroaches Next Generation sees Oggy take on the responsibility of parenthood as he watches his friends’ daughter.

“We’re looking forward to returning to MIPCOM in full force and bringing to the market a slate of shows that embody what’s at the heart of Xilam’s DNA and legacy: slapstick comedy,” Favennec says.
