Genius Brands International inked a partnership with Tankee to develop a Roblox series for the Kartoon Channel!, the digital network from Genius Brands.
Building on the popularity of existing Roblox-themed series, such as Big B Statz Roblox Challenges and Sally Plays Roblox, Genius Brands and Tankee will produce a 12-episode series with top Roblox influencers. The exclusive show will start streaming on Kartoon Channel! in June 2021.
Previously, Genius Brands International and Tankee partnered to bring a slate of Tankee Originals to the Genius Brands digital network.
Jon Ollwerther, general manager of Kartoon Channel! at Genius Brands, commented, “Roblox has become a phenomenon that has captured the attention of children across the globe, and we are thrilled to be working with Tankee to develop and share new episodes in order to meet the growing demand from viewers.”
Gerald Youngblood, founder of Tankee, remarked, “We’ve grown our partnership with Genius Brands over 2 years and we’re proud to develop our first-ever co-production with Kartoon Channel! for a new Roblox-themed series. Tankee’s dedication to becoming the top producer of kid safe gaming content came from connecting with my son through gaming and a desire to celebrate gaming content with kids around the world. We weren’t alone and have seen that many kids and families have a huge appetite for Roblox and other family-friendly gaming content.”
