Tubi Picks Up Lloyd of the Flies

Tubi has acquired the animated comedy Lloyd of the Flies from Wallace & Gromit and Shaun the Sheep producer Aardman.

The kids and family comedy series centers on Lloyd, a young fly who is the middle child of 451, living in an apple with his long-suffering parents, cheeky little sister and 224 maggots. It will premiere exclusively on Tubi on August 6 in the U.S. and Canada.

“Aardman is a beloved animation studio famous for their unique voice that appeals to children and adults alike, and Lloyd of the Flies is yet another memorable story elevated by this cross-generational appeal,” said Adam Lewinson. “Lloyd of the Flies amplifies our commitment to Tubi Kids and our deep collection of iconic kids and family content that includes the likes of Scooby-Doo, The Flintstones, The Smurfs and much more.”

“We are delighted to have partnered with Tubi for Aardman’s first CGI show: Lloyd of the Flies,” said Laura Taylor-Williams, head of digital and strategic development at Aardman. “Releasing as a Tubi Original in North America, Tubi is a great platform for our show’s irreverent humor and unique creative. We’re excited for this partnership and are confident both kids and adults alike will enjoy Lloyd of the Flies.”
