Season Three for Portfolio’s Cat in the Hat Series

TORONTO: Portfolio Entertainment is gearing up to produce a third season of the Dr. Seuss-inspired PBS Kids preschool series The Cat in the Hat Knows A Lot About That!

The Cat in the Hat Knows A Lot About That! will return for 20 episodes on PBS stations in the U.S. and Treehouse in Canada. The half-hour episodes will be produced and animated in-house at Portfolio Entertainment’s animation studio.

“The Cat in the Hat Knows A Lot About That! is a series with endless opportunities for innovative storytelling and continues to be embraced by audiences around the globe,” said Lisa Olfman, CEO and co-founder of Portfolio Entertainment.

“PBS Kids is excited to build on the success of The Cat in The Hat Knows A Lot About That!, which supports our mission to use the power of media to spark children’s curiosity and excitement about learning,” said Linda Simensky, the VP of children’s programming at PBS. “We look forward to continuing to work with Portfolio Entertainment on another outstanding season of this iconic series, bringing new natural science adventures to families.”

“The new season of The Cat in the Hat Knows A Lot About That! features a brand-new theme where the adventures take us out of the natural world to imaginary Seussian places where the Cat and his friends explore physical sciences and how things work,” said Susan Brandt, the president of Dr. Seuss Enterprises. “Dr. Seuss was so passionate about nature and science; there is no doubt he would have loved seeing his characters fostering a love of learning and discovery in the next generation of children.”
