Nicktoons Global to Premiere 'The Smurfs' on Monday 4th October 2021

Blue and small, and standing only three apples tall, The Smurfs are set to make their debut on Nicktoons Global on Monday 4th October 2021 at 18:10 (CET)! The CG-animated series follows the beloved characters embarking upon rousing adventures. Following launch, new episodes will air daily at 18:10 (CET), with next weekday encores at 06:13 (CET).


The original series marks the return of the globally renowned characters to television for the first time in nearly 40 years and follows Papa Smurf, Smurfette, Brainy, Hefty, Clumsy and the other inhabitants of Smurf Village on all-new adventures, packed with humor, heart and high-stakes action. In the premiere episode, “Smurf-Fu,” when Smurfette rescues Brainy from a giant snake, the other Smurfs ask her to teach them “Smurf-Fu.” Next in, “Diaper Daddy,” when everyone is tired of changing Baby’s diapers, Handy decides to invent a robot that will do the job.

NickToons Global is available in Central Eastern Europe, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, Russia and more.
