Dennis & Gnasher Series Lands on Super RTL

Beano Studios’ Dennis & Gnasher Unleashed, part of the Jetpack Distribution catalog, has been snapped up by Germany’s Super RTL in a deal that includes VOD rights.

Dennis & Gnasher Unleashed currently airs on ABC ME in Australia and on CBBC in the U.K., where the animated show made its premiere late last year. The 52×11-minute action/adventure series will debut on Super RTL in Germany this fall.

Allison Watkins, the executive VP of global consumer products and TV distribution at Beano Studios, commented: “We are absolutely delighted to welcome Super RTL to the bold, funny and adventurous new world of Dennis & Gnasher Unleashed. They are in good company with the two biggest broadcasters in the U.K. with CBBC and in Australia on ABC ME. Following the successful launch of Dennis & Gnasher Unleashed at MIPCOM in 2017 with our distribution partner Jetpack, we look forward to bringing this infectiously brilliant series to more international territories in 2018.”

Carsten Göttel, Super RTL’s program director, added: “We are delighted to have Dennis & Gnasher Unleashed on Super RTL in their fresh CGI TV guise, and I am sure German kids will enjoy their relatable adventures, special friendship and fun stories.”
