British broadcaster Sky Kids has acquired The Singalings, an out-of-this-world musical preschool series from Snipple Originals, the London-based content division of Snipple Animation in the Philippines.

Animated in 2D, The Singalings (26 x five minutes) is about three extraterrestrials who are exploring Earth for the first time, and each episode kicks off with an original song. Leaning into the power of earworms, the content will also be packaged in a music-only version featuring 26 x one-minute/45-second songs. 

London’s Jetpack Distribution has acquired worldwide distribution rights (excluding the UK) to both versions of the series. The Singalings will debut later this year on Sky Kids’ on-demand platform and its new linear channel that’s set to launch on February 13.

Snipple Originals is the original content division of Snipple Animation, the Philippines-based service studio behind series like The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder

Headed up by director Karina Stanford-Smith, Snipple Originals was established in 2020 with US$8 million in funding from UK investor BGF. The studio currently has 10 shows in development, ranging in focus from mysteries (Cassidy’s Castle) to environmentalism (Wise Island Woohoos).
