Silvergate Media has revealed plans for the broadcast launch of its new animated series, The Creature Cases.
The action, comedy, and detective series, animated by French studio TeamTO and aimed at kids ages 4-7, revolves around animal mysteries that mix real zoological facts with wild detective action. It follows the detective duo Sam Snow and Kit Casey, lead agents of CLADE: the Covert League of Animal Detective Experts, as they solve animal mysteries by exploring the habitats and behaviors of fascinating and sometimes bizarre creatures, with the assistance of their miniature contacts, the Mice Squad.
“The Creature Cases invites young viewers to train a watchful eye on the many mysteries of the natural world,” says Kurt Mueller, Silvergate’s executive vice president of creative content and The Creature Cases’ executive producer. “This show is X-Files for preschoolers, but instead of solving paranormal mysteries, Sam and Kit are solving strange but true animal mysteries. Each episode offers a super-size serving of odd zoological facts, imaginative gadgetry, and, well, the Mice Squad. We look forward to introducing the show to audiences around the world this spring.”
The show’s first season will debut on Netflix’s global streaming platform on April 12.
Silvergate Media is currently enjoying success from the resurgence of the Octonauts franchise, complete with a toy line from Moose.
