Zodiak Kids is representing both the first season and brand-new second season of the show. <em>Sammy &amp; Co<\/em> follows the adventures of Ricky and Ella, who are soulmates that were born on the same day on the same beach. Along with their friends, they go on adventures in the big ocean.<\/p>\n<p>The series follows on the success of the feature films <em>A Turtle\u2019s Tale: Sammy\u2019s Adventures<\/em> and <em>Sammy\u2019s Great Escape<\/em>, both produced by STUDIOCANAL\u2019s partner nWave. The second season of the series has been commissioned for M6.<\/p>\n<p>Julia Rowlands, the VP of sales, acquisitions and co-productions at Zodiak Kids, said, \u201cWe are delighted to add <em>Sammy &amp; Co<\/em> to our catalog of preschool programming. We think this series has strong international appeal. The show teaches children universal values through an array of humorous characters and action-packed adventures in the underwater world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Katrina Neylon, the executive VP of sales and marketing at STUDIOCANAL, added, &#8220;We are thrilled to partner with Zodiak Kids on one of our most iconic family brands.
