Mondo TV has inked its first major broadcast deal for the new animated preschool series Cuby Zoo with free-to-air kids’ channel MBC3 in all Arabic-speaking territories.

Under the two-year agreement, an Arabic-language version of Cuby Zoo will premiere on MBC3 in all Arabic-speaking countries early next year. The show follows the adventures of cube-shaped animal toys that come to life in the absence of humans. It is meant for young viewers between the ages of 2 and 5.

Cuby Zoo is co-produced by Mondo TV and South Korea’s Aurora World.

Matteo Corradi, the CEO of Mondo TV, commented: “We are thrilled to announce the arrival of Cuby Zoo in its first major market via MBC3—a leading children’s edutainment channel in the Middle East. This clever, charming and colorful show is already attracting a lot of attention from the broadcasting and licensing worlds, and we expect to be making many more announcements about it in the very near future.”

Ashraf Younis, MBC3’s channel manager, added: “We are happy and excited about the debut of Cuby Zoo soon on MBC3. We are confident that the high animation quality and storyline provided by Mondo TV, whom we have dealt with in the past, will be an attractive addition to our young Arab audience, wherever they are.”
