TFO has acquired the first 2 seasons of hit STEM animation series Earth to Luna, from distributor Monster Entertainment and will give the series its Canadian broadcast premier, in French.
Earth to Luna! is all about Luna, a six-year-old girl who is completely, undeniably and passionately into just one thing: science! Each episode finds Luna, her little brother, Jupiter and her pet ferret, Clyde in search of answers to their many questions.
The series has proved to be particularly popular at a time when schools are closed, and children are at home. It even features an episode about the importance of washing, and how to wash, one’s hands and there is a brochure available in which Luna teaches children about covid-19 and how to keep themselves safe as well as activities which parents can print and use to keep their children amused at home.
Created by Pingium Content, the series consists of 156 x 12-minute episodes, with a number of shorts and a Christmas special also available. The sixth season was recently completed, and work has already begun on the seventh. Season six and seven are set on a space station, which promises to take the series in a bold and exciting new direction.
Earth to Luna has proved to be a smash hit across the g, airing in over 127 countries across six continents. The sixth season and the Christmas special recently landed at Condista, for broadcast on its Kids Central channel in the United States.
