Leading the slate of titles Cyber Group Studios is taking to the marketplace is Taffy, the company’s first Boomerang original series.

“This is a modern version of classic cartoons in the spirit of Tom and Jerry,” says Raphaelle Mathieu, senior VP of sales, acquisitions and new media for Cyber Group Studios, who calls Taffy an “evergreen program for the whole family.”

Sadie Sparks follows a schoolgirl as she discovers magical powers and receives training from a grumpy rabbit.

Winner of the Cartoons on the Bay Pulcinella Award for best upper preschool TV series is Cyber Group’s Gigantosaurus, which has successfully launched on Disney Channel in the U.S. “We are really overwhelmed by [the success of] this show, for which we have worked so hard to appeal to young kids worldwide,” says Mathieu.

She adds, “We are coming with three very different types of series—all of them of the highest quality and with great storytelling.”
