Guru Studio’s flagship preschool series True and the Rainbow Kingdom is now available for linear free- and pay-TV channels worldwide for the first time.

According to Jonathan Abraham, the senior director of sales at Guru Studio, the series is doing extremely well on CBC Kids in Canada and has a growing fan base on Netflix, which has greenlit the show for a fourth season. “Together with Pikwik and Big Blue, we have an incredibly strong lineup of originals that we can’t wait to introduce to buyers,” says Abraham.

Preschool series Pikwik follows a hedgehog named Suki who delivers surprise-filled packages to the town’s residents, while 2D animated series Big Blue centers on siblings Lettie and Lemo as they explore and protect the population of an ocean-covered planet with the help of their quirky submarine crew.

Pikwik’s stories are packed with silly hijinks, big adventure and heartfelt charm,” Abraham says.
