Sharkdog Swims Into Netflix's Top 10 List

SharkDog has officially entered the waters of Netflix's Top 10, ranking at the sixth most-watched show on the streaming platform for Thursday, September 16, 2021!


Sharkdog is a brand new animated series from Singaporean creator Jacinth Tan. The 20 x 7 minute episode animated series is produced by ViacomCBS International Studios (VIS), in partnership with Singaporean based CGI animation studio One Animation. The series swam onto the streaming service on September 3. A second season is in development.

Sharkdog follows 10 year old Max and his best friend Sharkdog - half shark, half dog, all appetite. Blissfully unaware of his own strength, stealth and general sharkiness, Sharkdog often leaves a trail of chaos in his wake. But, like all good half-dogs, he's Max's BFF and Max is his.

Although a "Netflix Original", the series caries Nickelodeon branding.


Sharkdog is VIS' first internationally originated global animated series for Netflix. It is also the first animated series from Singapore to come out of Nickelodeon's Global Animated Shorts Program, designed to identify and develop long form original comedy-driven content for kids globally. Prior to becoming a long-form Netflix series, Sharkdog was a short-form series on the Nickelodeon Play app in South East Asia.

The series stars Liam Mitchell as Max, Dee Bradley Baker as Sharkdog, Grey Griffin as Mom, Josh McDermitt as Dad, Kari Wahlgren as Mia, and Meaghan Davies as Annabelle. The show centers on Max, a ten-year-old boy and his best friend, a half-shark, half-dog creature that has fun and gets into trouble with Max.

In addition to a second season, fans can also look forward to Sharkdog Halloween special!

Titled "Sharkdog’s Fintastic Halloween," the all new Sharkdog Halloween special will premiere on October 15th, 2021. A synopsis has yet to be announced, however, Netflix has released a couple of first look photos from the episode, which you can view below. SharkDog would make an excellent Halloween costume for any licensors reading this! Hint hint!



Here's the official synopsis on the show's Netflix page: Half shark, half dog with a big heart and a belly full of fish sticks! Together, Sharkdog and his human pal Max can take on any silly or messy adventure.
