Pocket.watch & Roku Pact

Pocket.watch has signed a new deal with The Roku Channel Kids & Family that brings four new specials and one new series to the AVOD service.

The agreement includes the Toys & Colors Kaleidoscope City animated and live-action hybrid special, which transports kids to Kaleidoscope City, a technicolor world uniquely built in Unreal Engine.

Elemon Special is an action-packed and STEM-rich kids’ anime special from the creators of Ryan’s World and Toei Animation, filled with dramatic kid-friendly battles, comedy and learning.

Love, Diana Special is an animated and live-action hybrid special based on Kids Diana Show. Diana and her brother Roma jump into the Land of Play in this very special rescue adventure.

The series Jason Vlogs and the Do Crew stars Jason Vlogs, who has amassed over 10 billion views on YouTube. Together with his brother Alex and CG-animated pals Donnie and Didi, Jason Vlogs and the Do Crew teach kids real-life problem-solving skills in a fun and kid-friendly way.

The partnership kicked off with The Roku Channel’s launch of Ryan’s World Titan Universe Holiday Adventures on Thanksgiving Day 2022.

“We’re delighted to work with pocket.watch to bring our viewers access to content starring some of today’s most beloved kids stars and creators,” said Jennifer Vaux, head of content acquisition for The Roku Channel. “Pocket.watch content is hugely popular with our audience, and we’re thrilled to be able to exclusively bring our users this type of in-demand programming. We look forward to continuing to work with pocket.watch to surprise and delight the families that stream Kids & Family on The Roku Channel.”

“The Roku Channel is the rare ad-supported streaming service that has truly gone big with kids and families,” said David B. Williams, pocket.watch’s senior VP and general manager of channels. “We’re so proud to level up this partnership and demonstrate unmistakably the power of pocket.watch’s unique kid-creator content. Streamers are in for a treat!”
