Superights has secured a raft of sales for the new 3D series That’s Joey!, produced by Superprod Animation in co-production with Digital Graphics, Atmosphere and Planeta Junior.

The program has been picked up by RTBF (French-speaking Belgium), RTS (Switzerland), Discovery Kids (the Middle East and North Africa) and RTI (Ivory Coast) along with commissioning broadcaster M6 (France). Planeta Junior also struck a deal with Kidzone in the Baltics.

Based on the comic books created by Thierry Coppée, That’s Joey! follows the adventures of the titular kid, who has an overactive imagination and is constantly coming up with zany schemes—in class, at home and everywhere in between. The series was developed and produced in partnership with M6, which will soon announce the broadcasting schedule of the series.

Clément Calvet and Jérémie Fajner, producers at Superprod Animation, said: “It’s a long-lasting relationship we have with Thierry Coppée, the creator of That’s Joey, and Delcourt, its publisher. We are very happy to enrich it and that an even wider audience can follow Joey’s adventures.”

Nathalie Pinguet, deputy general manager at Superights, said: “It is a real asset to have a brand as strong and well-known as That’s Joey in our catalog. In this new 3D series, we meet an adorable character, full of humor and kindness.”
