Portfolio to Develop Animated Show for TELETOON

TORONTO: Portfolio Entertainment and Giggle Media have entered into a development deal with Corus Entertainment’s TELETOON for a new animated comedy series titled Invasion of the MooFaLoo!

Invasion of the MooFaLoo! is about three genetically modified rocket-powered sheep who must battle against a race of alien monk cows who conquer planets. The 26×11-mintue show is meant for young viewers between the ages of 6 and 11. It is created by Steve Garratt, who is the creative director of Giggle Media.

“We are thrilled to be working on another animation series for TELETOON, this time with an extraordinary flock of defiant sheep and marauding cows,” said Lisa Olfman, CEO and co-founder of Portfolio Entertainment. “We are also pleased to be joining forces with U.K.-based Giggle Media on this series which speaks to Portfolio’s continued strength in identifying the right animation partners, nationally and internationally, and collaborating with top talent from around the globe.”

“Invasion of the MooFaLoo! is an absurdly random and funny series bursting with colorful and comical characters,” stated Athena Georgaklis, the director of content at TELETOON. “We look forward to developing this series with Portfolio and Giggle Media and bringing this concept to life.”

“To make a show like Invasion of the MooFaLoo! really work you need creative collaborators who live and breathe kids’ comedy,” added Garratt. “That’s what we found at Portfolio and TELETOON.”
