KidsCo, the international children’s
television channel that reaches 15 million subscribers worldwide and airs on
DStv 308 and ToPTV 255 has unveiled its new look and new content locally. The
brand new look and feel for the channel is complemented by great new shows plus
a new website – www.kidsco.tv
New shows will include Grossology about a brother and sister team who combat the
“disgusting bad guys” while working for a secret government facility. Baddies
like the bitter Lance Boil pose no threat for the brave twosome as they work
closely to solve mysteries that are horrible for their ultra-squeamish
Director.
Then there’s the adventures of the King of
the Elephants, Babar, who enthrals
his children with his challenges and amazing stories about how he got to become
king. He wants them to understand that anything is possible if you keep trying,
and encourages everyone to look for the silver lining in every dark cloud.
The fun continues with the series Rollie Pollie Ollie which tells the
tales of robot Olie Polie and his family, who live on Planet Polie with their
dog Spot.
KidsCo will also be introducing a raft of
new titles into its schedule throughout the year including a new original production:
Zuzu and the Supernuffs which is
currently being produced by award-winning production company Matchbox Pictures (NBCUniversal)
– with whom KidsCo announced a content deal last year – the series will air in
Q2 2013.
KidsCo can be found on DStv Channel 308 and
ToPTV Channel 255 as well as online to www.kidsco.tv
