Big Bad Boo Inks Multi-Year Deals Across Regions

VANCOUVER, Sept 26, 2023 - Big Bad Boo Studios announced today a slate of multi-year licensing deals with networks, and digital platforms across multiple regions, led by a multi-title acquisition deal with China's Kouyuxia for Big Bad Boo's flagship animated series "1001 Nights" (26X22 minutes). Owned by the Media Pioneers Group, the educational platform streams in mainland China, and also included in the transaction Big Bad Boo's hit preschool series "16 Hudson" (105 X 7 minutes), and spin-off musical series "ABC with Kenny G", which also air on commissioning broadcasters TVOKids, SRC Radio-Canada, Knowledge Kids, and TFO among others.
A similar deal was struck between Big Bad Boo and McIntyre Media, the leading distributor of educational video and curriculum content in Canada. MacIntyre has licensed the rights for the same core Big Bad Boo properties as well as Hulu Original "The Bravest Knight" (13 X 11 minutes) and digital mini-series "Lili & Lola" (15 X 7 minutes).
Closer to home, Vancouver-based mobile operator Air-G, acquired the rights for the same flagship library titles, this time for the Middle East and North African regions in the languages Arabic and French.
"This is a testament to the ever-green nature of the Big Bad Boo catalogue, which travels well across regions. We are excited to step into the fall with multiple new shows like Judge Jodhi and all new seasons of 16 Hudson," says Jerry Diaz, the Vice President of Global Sales and Distribution.
Finally, French Canadian broadcaster TFO acquired mini-series "Lili & Lola" (15 X 7 min) in French and plans to air the spin-off series on MiniTFO alongside catalogue favorites "16 Hudson" and "ABC with Kenny G".
