Nickelodeon Taps Finnish Animation Studio Gigglebug For 'Super Duper Bunny League'

Nickelodeon has tapped Finnish animation studio Gigglebug to produce Super Duper Bunny League, the network's upcoming new adventure-comedy preschool series based on Jamie Smart’s kids comic book series.

'Superhero Bunny League in Space' cover

The 26-episode series centers on a group of bunny friends who must battle danger as they defend their city from their arch-nemesis, Dr. Fuzzleglove. It is currently slated to debut in the U.S. in 2024 and will continue to roll out on Nick Jr. channels internationally.

Super Duper Bunny League is produced by Nickelodeon Animation, and Robert Scull and Jonny Belt (Bubble GuppiesButterbean’s Café) serve as executive producers. Jamie Smart is a consultant on the series. Production for Nickelodeon is overseen by Eryk Casemiro. Marielle Kaar serves as Nickelodeon’s executive in charge of production for the series.

The contract to produce the series is slated to be worth more than ten million euros. Last December, Nickelodeon received a production incentive of 1.8 million euros from Business Finland for the production of Super Duper Bunny League. The series is expected to be fully produced in Finland.

The incentive received by Nickelodeon is the second largest over the past year, with only Walt Disney Company Nordic receiving a slightly larger incentive, approximately 1.86 million euros.

Gigglebug previously produced The BeatBuds, Let’s Jam! for Nickelodeon and Best & Bester for Nickelodeon International.

NICKELODEON ORDERS SUPER DUPER BUNNY LEAGUE, BRAND-NEW ANIMATED PRESCHOOL SERIES
     
2D-Animated Series Based on Kids' Comic Book Series Superhero Bunny League by Cartoonist Jamie Smart

Share it: @NickJr #SuperDuperBunnyLeague

BURBANK, Calif., June 16, 2022 -- Nickelodeon has ordered Super Duper Bunny League (working title), a brand-new adventure-comedy preschool series based on the kids' comic book series by cartoonist Jamie Smart. Featuring 2D animation, the series (26 episodes) centers on a diverse group of bunny friends who must battle danger as they defend their city and the world from their archnemesis. Super Duper Bunny League is slated to launch 2024 in the U.S. and continue to roll out on Nick Jr. channels internationally.

"Super Duper Bunny League brings to life the colorful world that Jamie created with quirky imaginative characters and engaging stories filled with zany adventures and loads of fun," said Eryk Casemiro, Executive Vice President, Nickelodeon Animation, Global Series Content. "We are excited for the opportunity to take the comic books to the next level with a preschool animated series that combines big superhero action with silly cartoony comedy in a uniquely Nickelodeon way."

The Super Duper Bunny League is here to battle danger in all its forms as they defend Important City and the world from their arch-nemesis (and accidental creator), the inept Dr. Fuzzleglove, and a ridiculous rogues' gallery of cartoony villains. Whether battling sweet-toothed space pirates, sizzling lava monsters, giant metal monkeys or hot dog-hungry dinosaurs, the Bunnies must combine their new superpowers to defend truth, justice, and especially free time to snack and chill.

Super Duper Bunny League is produced by Nickelodeon Animation in Burbank, Calif. Robert Scull and Jonny Belt serve as executive producers and Jamie Smart as Consultant on the series. Production for Nickelodeon is overseen by Eryk Casemiro, Executive Vice President, Nickelodeon Animation, Global Series Content. Marielle Kaar serves as Nickelodeon's Executive in Charge of Production for the series.

Nickelodeon, now in its 43rd year, is the number-one entertainment brand for kids. It has built a diverse, global business by putting kids first in everything it does. The brand includes television programming and production in the United States and around the world, plus consumer products, digital, location-based experiences, publishing and feature films.

STAR TREK: PRODIGY is from CBS’ Eye Animation Productions, CBS Studios’ new animation arm; Nickelodeon Animation Studio, led by President of Animation Ramsey Naito; Secret Hideout; and Roddenberry Entertainment. Alex Kurtzman, Heather Kadin, Aaron Baiers, Katie Krentz, Rod Roddenberry and Trevor Roth serve as executive producers, alongside co-showrunners Kevin and Dan Hageman and Ben Hibon, who also directs and serves as executive producer and the creative lead of the animated series.

Nickelodeon Partners with Eckerö Line to Launch Slime Time Cruises in Finland

Nickelodeon recently partnered with the Finnish shipping company Eckerö Line to launch Slime Time Cruises with the exclusive concept Slimeulator, which was available at Eckerö Line m/s Finlandia during the autumn holidays in October 2019! This was the first time ever that the Nickelodeon Slimeulator concept was brought to Finland.


In collaboration with Viacom International Media Networks (VIMN) Nordics' kids’ entertainment brand Nickelodeon, one of the world leading kids network, and Eckerö Line, the exclusive slime-ulator concept was introduced to the Finnish market for the first time ever.

Being slimed by Nickelodeon is the ultimate badge of honour and the brand is known for covering celebrities in the iconic goo. The slime phenomenon has overwhelmed Finnish children in recent years, and this autumn, Nickelodeon and Eckerö Line offered kids the chance to be slimed. For a limited time during the autumn holidays between Wednesday 16th and Sunday 20th October 2019, kids could travel with Slime Time Cruises, which feature Nickelodeon's world-famous Slimeulator, a special contraption that pours litres of green slime over kids.

"Eckerö Line has 25 years of experience on ferry route between Helsinki and Tallinn. We are famous in serving tasty food, good music and great entertainment to our customers. Surprising people is so much fun. Kids love slime – so why not offer them a real never-experienced Slimeulator. Slimeulator is fun, exciting and very green, and kids love it – and that is most important. We are proud to launch it to Finnish and Estonian market. During fall holidays also younger kids will have chance for meet and greet with super-popular Paw Patrol characters. A real holiday fun for the whole family. Come and get slimed!," said Ida Toikka-Everi, Director of Marketing and Communications at Eckerö Line.

The activation previously saw success touring in UK and Finland is the first Nordic country to host the concept. Attendees were able to participate in slime games, slime making and slime tattoos. For the youngest kids, there was also a chance to meet fan-favourite characters from PAW Patrol.

"We’re constantly exploring new types of partnership models, and our partnership with Eckerö Line is a great example, that we’re very proud of. Slime is this big kids’ trend and we’re excited to bring the fun associated with the green substance to kids and their families at Eckerö Linjen," said Mikko Silvennoinen, Sales Director for Nickelodeon at Viacom Nordics.

The popular Youtubers Tixuu and Elina and Sofia were the first Finns to try the concept and shared their experience in social media.
