GO-N International has wrapped up a new raft of broadcast deals for seasons one and two of its preschool show Simon, as well as concluded presales for season three.

Simon, produced by GO-N Productions with France Télévisions, has been picked up by several new broadcasters in Europe, including JimJam (AMC), which took seasons one and two for all of Central Europe. Additionally, Clan RTVE in Spain signed up for season two and so did VRT (Belgium), DR TV (Denmark), TV5 Worldwide, ERR (Estonia) and RTS (Switzerland).

GO-N also secured presales for season three with France Télévisions, Cartoonito (Turner) in Italy, HOP! (Israel), VRT (Belgium), TéléQuébec (Canada), DR TV (Denmark), and more are to come as new episodes will completed by July 2020.

Based on the best-selling series of books by Stephanie Blake published in over 20 countries, the TV series follows Simon, an adorable little rabbit who exudes all the vitality of childhood. He’s at an age when little rabbits (and indeed little children) are starting to come into their own, challenging relationships with parents, embarking upon school life and learning about the world in general.

Eric Garnet, producer and co-founder of GO-N Productions, said: “Simon has been very popular with young audiences and plebiscited by their parents since its first launch, we are so glad it enjoys increasing success worldwide. Broadcasters all around the world have identified the potential of this energetic little rabbit, who is becoming a global preschool property.”
