MIPTV Spotlight: GoldBee

A busybody who likes to stick his nose in everyone else’s business takes center stage in ToonMarty, from the GoldBee catalog.

“We are proud to present our universal slapstick comedy ToonMarty, which rolled out successfully last year on Nickelodeon internationally,” says Christophe Goldberger, the company’s managing director. The show was recently snapped up by such broadcasters as CITV in the U.K. and France Télévisions for France 4.

“The series turns every cartoon trope on its ear—having a grand time with things like idea lightbulbs, smoke trails or chase scenes,” adds Goldberger. “Its references to classic cartoons and superheroes make it easy to get to gender-neutral buddy comedy.”

Also on offer is ZDF Enterprises’ School of Roars, an upbeat comedy made by Dot To Dot Productions, and Chop Chop Ninja, an upcoming adventure comedy from Sardine Productions and for which GoldBee is currently seeking presales.
