Team Zenko Go
Produced in conjunction with Mainframe Studios, this new animated series is based on the Dojo Daycare novels by Chris Tougas.
The project is headed up by Jack Thomas who is behind the likes of Fairly Odd Parents.
Here’s how the Netflix series is described:
The Boss Baby: Back in the Crib
Following the release of The Boss Baby: Back in Business and the subsequent interactive special The Boss Baby: Get That Baby!, Netflix commissioned another series in the popular universe called Back in The Crib.
Due to premiere in May, the series takes place after Family Business and sees Templeton framed for embezzlement and forced to revert back to his old Boss Baby self.
Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight
Jack Black himself will be reprising his role as Po in this new Kung Fu Panda series due out on Netflix in July 2022.
Previous television series and specials have been made in the Kung Fu Panda IP before and distributed to Amazon Prime, Nickelodeon, and NBC.
Here’s what we know so far about the new series:
Not Quite Narwhal
A new pre-school series based on the book title by Jessie Sima, this new animated series will follow Kelp, a narwhal who lives under the sea with his family. Everything is going dandy until he realizes, he’s not a narwhal but a unicorn.
Dew Drop Diaries
Another new pre-school series following a group of three-inch tall family fairies. Rick Suvalle serves as the show’s creator which follows the fairies in their magical word and get assigned to human families to help them out around the house.
Gabby’s Dollhouse (Season 5)
Netflix renewed the show for at least 20 more episodes likely taking us up to season 6 of the show. As Emily Horgan wrote for us, Gabby’s Dollhouse is perhaps one of the biggest recent successes in Netflix’s kid’s lineup.
In case you haven’t watched Gabby’s Dollhouse yet, it’s a live-action animation hybrid series that brings together the “love of unboxing videos, cats, miniatures, and dollhouse play.”
