DreamWorks is taking over Netflix in 2019 and 2020 with three all-new animated shows.
It seems these days the DreamWorks/Netflix combo can do no wrong with beautifully animated and wonderfully written shows like Voltron and The Dragon Prince. Those two successes have given the duo the bright idea to crank it up a notch and create three new kids-centric series coming out in 2019 and 2020.
Archibald’s Next Big Thing – 2019: Inspired by the children’s book from Tony Hale, Tony Biaggne, and Victor Huckabee, the show follows the adventures of Archibald Strutter, a chicken who “yes-ands” his way thru life. Though living in the moment often leads him astray, Archibald always finds his way back home. Executive produced by Hale, Archibald’s Next Big Thing emphasizes the importance of being present and celebrating the journey, not just the destination.
Gabby’s Dollhouse – 2020: A preschool show with a surprise inside, created and executive produced by Traci Paige Johnson (Blue’s Clues, Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood) and Jennifer Twomey (Blue’s Clues, Team Umizoomi), Gabby’s Dollhouse is a mixed media series that unboxes a surprise before jumping into a fantastical animated world full of adorable cat characters that live inside Gabby’s dollhouse.
Rhyme Time Town – 2020: Daisy the Puppy and Cole the Kitten are ready to guide young children through a colorful and adventurous world filled with nursery rhymes and imaginative play.
But if you can’t wait for these two media giants to get these new shows out, you can watch their upcoming collaborations like She-Ra: Princess of Power on November 16th, Tales of Arcadia: 3Below on December 21st and a Fast & The Furious animated series slated for 2019.
