Rainbow’s 44 Cats Heads to Nick in the U.S.

Rainbow’s animated show 44 Cats is slated to make its debut in the U.S. on Nickelodeon next month.

The series follows the daily adventures of four musical kittens, who are all part of a band called The Buffycats that plays out of a garage that they transform into a clubhouse. Together, Lampo, Milady, Pilou and Meatball also try to find creative solutions to everyday problems while helping other cats in need. 44 Cats will premiere on Nickelodeon on Monday, June 10, at 10 a.m., and will air regularly on weekdays on the network in the timeslot.

Rainbow inked an agreement with Viacom International in 2018 to broadcast 44 Cats in selected international territories. The kids’ series bowed last year.

Iginio Straffi, founder and president of Rainbow Group, said: “Nickelodeon is synonymous with quality and excellence in the kids’ and family content industry. We are truly excited to announce the airing of another Rainbow TV series on Nickelodeon in the U.S. 44 Cats has already proven to be a top-notch show that can work in any territory, and thanks to Nickelodeon’s huge reach, we will be able to bring the overwhelmingly positive energy of the show to millions of kids in the U.S. too.”
