Emmy Award-winning French animation production and distribution company Dandelooo has struck a deal with Barcelona-based audiovisual production company Teidees for the sitcom comedy series Under The Sofa (52 x 7’).
The deal gives Dandelooo exclusive worldwide distribution rights to the 2D animation targeted at both kids and family. Currently in production, the first two episodes will be ready for this year’s MIP Junior, with the full series available by May 2025.
Under The Sofa is a comedy in which a group of lost objects such as Diver a scuba diver figure and the only survivor of a squad of toy commandoes, Dusty the fluffball, Selfie a polaroid photo, Chip a cookie with a bit missing, Top a cotton bud, Queen Penny and Beaver get a second chance as they live in hiding under a sofa. Part sitcom, part adventure series, in Under the Sofa we meet imperfect characters forced to live together in imperfect harmony, trying to survive in the apartment of a family that aspires to perfection.
Marta Alonso, Executive Producer, Teidees added:
I really believe this is going to be the funniest TV series ever. We are incredibly proud of the strong talented team driving the show and with their creativity and skill Under the Sofa is bound to be a huge hit.
Commenting on the distribution deal, Emmanuèle Pétry, Producer & Head Of International at Dandelooo said:
Marta [Alonso] from Teidees had been teasing me for months about their new original comedy in development. She finally shared it with us once production started and I’m happy to say that we were NOT disappointed! Under the Sofa is fantastically strong and incredibly funny and viewers are going to love it!
