TV Kids Screenings Festival Spotlight: ZDF Studios

ZDF Studios is unveiling the new preschool animated series Sam and Julia this MIPJunior, which it is spotlighting in the TV Kids Screenings Festival.

“The funny, entertaining adventures of our two little heroes in and around The Mouse Mansion allow young viewers to become more integrated into new and different environments they may have to face,” says Arne Lohmann, VP Junior.

Skewing older, to kids 6 to 9, Tobie Lolness is based on the novel by Timothée de Fombelle. The titular character is just one and a half millimeters tall and is the most wanted person in his world, the Great Oak Tree.

ZDF Studios is also bringing two live-action kids’ series to MIPCOM, both returning brands. #LikeMe, with a fourth season available, “is a musical series that shows youngsters the lives of other youngsters in a unique and contemporary way—by using witty dialogue, familiar situations, pressing issues, strong characters and, of course, powerful music,” says Marei Bruckmann, Director Junior.

Bruckmann also highlights season two of Theodosia, continuing to follow the adventures of the eponymous young girl.
