Silly Seasons<\/em> follows the adventures of four girls\u2014each representing a different season\u2014who live in the fantasy world of Sillyville, which is inhabited by a variety of wacky plants and animals.

Andre van der Merwe, animation producer at The Flying Circus, remarked: \u201cSilly Seasons<\/em> is South Africa\u2019s first motion-captured animated series and we are thrilled to work with Breakthrough to take the show to a new audience. The series is fun, energetic and unique, and we are confident it will appeal to kids in North America.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBreakthrough is always looking to broaden our frontiers in family entertainment, so when we found The Flying Circus and were impressed by the unique style of Silly Seasons<\/em>, we were eager to cultivate a relationship with them to help bring this lively new series to North America,\u201d added Craig McGillivray, the VP of distribution at Breakthrough Entertainment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
