PJ Masks Writers Reunite for BuddyBots

Writing and directing duo Tim Clague and Danny Stack, writers of PJ Masks, Oddbods and Hey Duggee, have teamed up again for the new animated series BuddyBots.

From Creation Entertainment Media and Magic Frame Animation, BuddyBots follows a group of robots and two teens as they navigate a sci-fi world where learning, family and inclusion are some of the most important values.

Each of the characters have certain limitations or traits perceived as “downfalls,” which the series turns into positive attributes, showing that everyone is just as valuable. It also promotes the importance of believing in your own abilities and seeking support from family and friends.

“We were really excited to see Magic Frame and Creation Entertainment’s ambition and vision for this series, and we could immediately see all the fun potential that the show has to offer,” Clague and Stack said. “Robots, firefighting, teamwork, adventure, evil villains—what’s not to like!”

“Tim and Danny’s remarkable experience in working on kids’ animation is what makes them the perfect team for this job,” said Sefi Carmel, CEO of Creation Entertainment Media. “They inject fun into everything they write and they know what makes a successful, and entertaining kids series that works across territories. We look forward to them bringing their talent to the BuddyBots script.”

Lidia Chirita, head of sales and co-productions at Magic Frame Animation, added, “BuddyBots is all about sharing important values with a young audience, through fun and engaging storylines and characters. Tim and Danny completely grasped our vision for the series, so we know this is going to be the perfect project to develop with them. We’re excited to share the first glimpse of BuddyBots with the world and to take the series to Kidscreen, where we’ll be meeting new potential partners.”
