The brightness of their town depends on the community\u2019s happiness, so each time it starts to dull, the duo sets out on a mission to make it shine bright again.<\/p>\n<p>They do so by helping others and encouraging everyone else to help each other too.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a huge moment for me to be the voice of <em>Happy Town<\/em> for Sky Kids\u2014my first time ever as a narrator,\u201d Mel B said. \u201cI\u2019ve actually spent years looking for the perfect children\u2019s show to get involved with because I\u2019m a mum of three and I strongly believe that little ones learn so much through brilliant, colorful, creative storytelling. <em>Happy Town<\/em> is all about kindness and community and a cute ladybird and hedgehog duo who make it their mission to help people. I\u2019m totally in love with this gorgeous Sky Kids show. At its heart is fun, adventure and great entertainment\u2014just like me really!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Let\u2019s Go, Bananas!<\/em>, created and written by Tim Bain (<em>Bluey<\/em>, <em>PJ Masks<\/em>), focuses on a community of three neighboring animal families who share each other\u2019s triumphs, dramas and crazy lives. The show is a celebration of different family structures and all the chaos, joy and messy moments that every family experiences.<\/p>\n<p>Lucy Murphy, director of Sky Kids, said, \u201cFull of positivity and encouraging creative thinking,<em> Happy Town<\/em> is a burst of color and joy that is completely encapsulated in the brilliant Mel B\u2019s warm and engaging narration. And we\u2019re delighted to be working with Tim Bain on the hilarious <em>Let\u2019s Go, Bananas!<\/em>, which shows kids that family is what you make it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two new animated series, Happy Town and Let\u2019s Go, Bananas!, are set to debut on Sky Kids later this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":26955,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[9141,9142,4677,9143,976,9144],"class_list":["post-26954","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-happy-town","tag-lets-go-bananas","tag-lucy-murphy","tag-mel-b","tag-sky-kids","tag-tim-bain","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Sky Kids Sets Two New Animated Shows - TVKIDS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-kids-sets-two-new-animated-shows\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Sky Kids Sets Two New Animated Shows - TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Two new animated series, Happy Town and Let\u2019s Go, Bananas!, are set to debut on Sky Kids later this year.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-kids-sets-two-new-animated-shows\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-02-20T14:54:47+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-02-20T14:54:49+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2017\/07\/SkyKids-HappyTown-0224.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"640\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"393\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-kids-sets-two-new-animated-shows\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-kids-sets-two-new-animated-shows\/\",\"name\":\"Sky Kids Sets Two New Animated Shows - TVKIDS\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2024-02-20T14:54:47+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-02-20T14:54:49+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-kids-sets-two-new-animated-shows\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-kids-sets-two-new-animated-shows\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/sky-kids-sets-two-new-animated-shows\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Sky Kids Sets Two New Animated Shows\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\",\"name\":\"TVKIDS\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\",\"name\":\"Jamie Stalcup\",\"description\":\"Jamie Stalcup is the executive editor of World Screen.
