A BBC Studios Kids & Family original, Rafi the Wishing Wizard centers on Rafi, Dash, Jake and their family cat.

They run a bakery in an ordinary town, but the Martins are not an ordinary family; they are modern-day wizards. “Rafi is a brand-new magical series with stories that reflect everyday situations but with a magical twist,” says Katharina Pietzsch, VP of content sales. “It has great storytelling, relatable characters and oodles of magical fun.”

Made by BBC Studios Natural History Unit, Deadly Mission Shark sees Steve Backshall take ten young trailblazers on an oceanic adventure to protect the future of sharks as they come under threat of extinction.

Popularity Papers is set in a Canadian middle school yet deals with issues that affect school-aged kids across the globe. Pietzsch says the show is “full of humor and heart.”

She adds, “We have some really exciting new live-action and animation projects fresh from our development slate to talk to partners about.”
